Corrections
If something on the site is wrong or out of date, please include the article title and, if you have it, a link to the page that contradicts it. Fee schedules, permit thresholds, transit routes and parking rates change often in Long Beach; a note from a reader who just dealt with the counter is the quickest way a page gets fixed. Corrections are made as soon as they are confirmed and the article’s updated date changes.
What the site cannot help with
LongBeach.biz is independent and has no connection to the City of Long Beach, the Port, the transit agencies, the operators or the businesses it writes about. It cannot issue or look up a license or permit, book a cruise, a ferry or a room, or answer a question about your own application. For those, go to the office that handles it:
- Business licenses: the Business License Division, (562) 570-6211, [email protected]
- Building permits and plan check: the Permit Center, 411 West Ocean Boulevard, (562) 570-7648
- Zoning and planning questions: the Planning Bureau, (562) 570-6194
- Food and health permits: the Bureau of Environmental Health, (562) 570-4132
- Fire permits and inspections: the Long Beach Fire Department, Fire Prevention Bureau
- Selling to the City: Long Beach Buys and the Purchasing Division; selling to the Port: the Port of Long Beach’s procurement portal
- Transit: Long Beach Transit (ridelbt.com) and Metro (metro.net)
- The cruise terminal: Carnival; Catalina: Catalina Express
