The Port of Long Beach is seeking input on its Community Grants Program with a virtual workshop that will be held from 1-2:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 15.
Input is sought from those who live near the port or its trade corridors.
The more than $65 million program — the largest effort in the nation to lessen impacts of port operations on surrounding areas, according to port officials — establishes funding priorities and is looking forward to 2025-27 with the feedback it receives.
Attendance at the online workshop is limited to 100.
