Hi, my name is Andre. As a private resident, I wanted to share the information about how I planted my trees over 12 years ago, they are well maintained and well established. The city has filed a lawsuit against me saying I need to cut down my trees or risk jail-time. This is because of an unenforced ordinance. In my research, I estimate 30% of us residents are in violation of this same ordinance but, again, as I stated, unenforced. We need to save our trees and plant more. Redondo Beach became a “Tree City USA” this year and we need to at minimum keep our existing trees, not just because of that but because our environment is changing. Trees are good for our community and we need to get the laws changed. I have contacted the mayor and city council members and have not received any response except for this lawsuit with the risk is jail-time. Help me change and update these outdated ordinances.
Residents planting trees
should be commended,
not jailed!
