File art The Los Cerritos Wetlands restoration project recently moved forward with a recent grant from the California Coastal Conservancy. The conservancy gave 'a grant of $31,852,000 to the Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority for the Southern Los Cerritos Wetlands Restoration Project,' wrote District One City Council Member Joe Kalmick in a recent email. 'This is 103.5 acres within the City of Seal Beach (the former Hellman Ranch that is adjacent to our Gum Grove Park),' Kalmick wrote. 'This will cover the planning and permitting for restoration and for providing for public access to the project acreage, construction of an initial phase of the restoration and public access improvements of the Project site, and management of the wetlands,' Kalmick wrote.
