Hummel Defends Extra 2000 Payment in San Pedro Deal
Mayor Hummel testified before the City Council investigation into Councilman Kirk's San Pedro charges. He defended the extra 2000 paid to the Golders trust as prudent to secure the water land deal, noting the option issues and subsequent litigation risk. The city paid 367125 plus fees, and two parallel buys were arranged to safeguard the purchase. Kirk pressed him on authorization and trust details, while Hummel argued the water land was essential and the final price a good deal.
