Evan Jackson has resigned as the District Four member of the Seal Beach Recreation and Parks Commission. The vacancy existed as of Jan. 23, according to a notice that was posted on the bulletin board at City Hall on Jan. 27. By law, a new appointment cannot be made for 10 working days after the notice was posted.

District Four Councilwoman Patty Senecal will make the appointment after that time, subject to the approval of the council. The vacancy is not on the Feb. 10 council agenda, so the soonest the matter would come to the council would be Feb. 24.

Local residents may hear and see an increase in law enforcement activities at the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station starting Monday, Feb. 3 as base personnel take part in an annual series of nationwide security exercises. The exercises are scheduled to conclude by Friday, Feb. 14.

The exercises, collectively called Citadel Shield-Solid Curtain 2025, will be conducted simultaneously on all Navy bases throughout the continental United States.

At the naval weapons station, drills and training will be conducted on a wide range of potential security scenarios on land, water and air.
The exercises may cause increased traffic, delays in base access, and temporary gate closures. Some drills may include the use of role players. The station’s “Giant Voice” mass notification loudspeaker and alarm system may also be used. Civilian boat traffic through Anaheim Bay is unlikely to be affected.

Live updates will be posted on the station’s page (search under “Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, Detachment Fallbrook, Detachment Norco”).
