Vol. 02 | Issue 6


February 10, 2024

Hello Kristina,


We are excited to celebrate African American Arts and Culture with you this Black History Month! Long Beach City College is hosting a collaborative event where author Ilyon Woo will discuss her book, "Master-Slave - Husband and Wife". Check out the events section below for more information.


We want to thank the residents who stacked palm fronds and debris in their parkways after the storm. This is making clean up easier for our teams who are clearing the streets. With resources focused on the storm response, we will include answers to questions from the townhall in next week's newsletter.


As always, the 3rd District team and I are here to help. Reach out to us at District3@longbeach.gov or (562) 570-6300.

Sincerely,

Kristina Duggan

Councilmember | District 3
