SEAL BEACH, Orange County — October 25, 2026. The City of Seal Beach’s municipal calendar lists two City Council sessions for Monday, October 26, 2026: a closed session from 6 to 7 p.m. and a regular Council meeting starting at 7 p.m.. Both calendar notices refer to the city’s main location at 211 Eighth Street, Seal Beach, CA 90740.
Why two Council entries appear on the same date
A closed session can involve only those subjects permitted by California’s open-meeting rules, while regular open-session business may be discussed publicly. A scheduled closed session does not establish that any settlement, negotiation, personnel action or other decision occurred; any legally required public reporting is determined by the applicable official record. Residents should read both corresponding agendas before drawing conclusions.
The city publishes a 6 p.m. closed-session listing and a separate 7 p.m. Council listing. The event times are calendar entries and do not guarantee precisely when the Council will leave or reconvene from closed session. Changes, additional meetings and cancellations may occur.
How residents should prepare to comment
Use the city’s official website to locate the dated Council agenda, access public-records information and check the procedures for speaking or submitting written correspondence. The public-comment period, if offered, is governed by the current agenda and the Council’s published rules. The time of a meeting on a generic calendar should not substitute for the agenda’s actual public-access details.
Questions about city services?
City Hall’s posted main number is (562) 431-2527. The city also maintains separate resources for public safety, local planning, beach access and municipal service programs. Those city services should be checked directly for current operating hours and contact information, especially during the fall holiday season.
Seal Beach News will link Council decisions to the actual public record and keep closed-session notices distinct from regular meeting reports.
