TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager
FROM: Steve Myrter, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Transfer of Funds for Gum Grove Park
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
That City Council adopt Resolution 6838 approving Budget Amendment BA 18-
12-01 transferring $87,500 in revenue from the Gum Grove Park tree removal
settlement to a revenue account to establish fund balance to be spent on a future
project.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
In 2017, the City of Seal Beach received a settlement of $250,000 from a civil
case regarding the illegal removal of trees from Gum Grove Park. The cost of
replacing what was lost during this action was valued at $87,500. This
calculation was based on the findings of a certified master arborist who
investigated the site and used historical data to establish a value for the tree loss.
On April 23, 2018, the City Council adopted Resolution 6810 establishing a
management policy for Gum Grove Park. Using this management policy as a
guiding document, staff is now prepared to begin work on a restoration project in
the park. The proposed budget amendment will allow staff to use a portion of
the funds received from the settlement to perform restoration throughout the
park.
