Members Sought for Harbor Seal Advisory Committee

The City recently formed an advisory committee for the purpose of better understanding of the local harbor seal population, including causes of recent trends in births and haul-out numbers, and to make recommendations to the City Council to mitigate habitat degradation and incidents of seal harassment. Community members who are interested in participating in the Harbor Seal Advisory Committee can apply by completing and submitting an application, which is available at https://bit.ly/3nTym8L.
