Committed to using technology to help deliver the best possible services, Long Beach has been named among the Top 10 "Digital City" in America for seven consecutive years. The seventh largest city in California and one of the most diverse in the country, Long Beach offers its residents and visitors all the amenities of a large metropolis while maintaining a strong sense of community and cohesiveness throughout a wide variety of unique and desirable neighborhoods. Long Beach is known for being bike-friendly and has been ranked the 10th most walkable city in the nation in both 2016 and 2017. For more information about the City of Long Beach, please visit www.longbeach.gov . The City of Long Beach Government Long Beach is a full-service Charter City governed by nine City Council members who are elected by district and a Mayor that is elected at-large. Elected officials also include the City Attorney, City Auditor, and City Prosecutor. The Council Members and the Mayor are subject to a three-term limit, which allows them to serve for a maximum of twelve years. The City Council appoints a City Manager and a City Clerk. The City Manager is responsible for the efficient administration of all City departments, excluding those under the direction of a separately elected official, Board or Commission. Long Beach is a full service City providing all traditional public services. In addition to its traditional services, Long Beach also maintains one of the world's busiest seaports, which serves as a leading gateway for international trade. The City also has its own full-service commercial airport, an Energy Resources Department, and is one of only three cities in California with its own Health Department. Long Beach is supported by a total FY 2019 budget of approximately $3 billion, with the General Fund budget totaling $499 million. More than 6,000 full and part-time employees support municipal operations with the majority being represented by eleven employee associations. The Long Beach Water Department The Long Beach Water Department is a Commission-governed department of the City of Long Beach consisting of over 250 employees and operating with an annual budget of approximately $160 million. Established July 1, 1911, by the City Charter, the Department's functions are to regulate and control the use, sale, and distribution of water owned or controlled by the City. In February 1988, the Department assumed the responsibility of the various functions of the City's sewer system, including operations and maintenance. The Department's service area encompasses the boundaries of the City, an area of approximately 50 square miles, and includes a water distribution system of 907 miles with nearly 90,000 service connections, and a sanitary sewer system totaling 712 miles of sewer pipelines. In addition, the Department has a 62.5 million-gallon-per-day Groundwater Treatment Plant and Water Quality Laboratory considered one of the most modern facilities of its kind in the world. Without water, Long Beach as we know it would cease to exist. Having an adequate supply of fresh water, made easily available at an affordable rate, is the cornerstone of any livable community, and keeping that water supply clear, safe, and constant increases quality of life. The swift removal of sanitary sewage from Long Beach residences and places of business is critical to the health of the City. Efficient, safe delivery of the City's wastewater to nearby wastewater treatment facilities is another valuable service of the Department, provided at one of the lowest sewer rates in the United States.
