Long Beach voters to decide fate of power plant exemption, city hiring process in November
Two charter amendments aimed at speeding up hiring in the city and a ballot measure that could raise $15 million annually by taxing two power plants will be on the Nov. 5 ballot.
Long Beach voters will get to decide this November if the cityβs hiring process will be overhauled and if two power plants will have their decades-long exemption from paying a city utility tax ended after the City Council voted to put the issues on the Nov. 5 ballot.
