Redondo Beach has no dedicated ordinance prohibiting the feeding of wildlife, pigeons, or feral animals. Feeding that creates nuisance noise, odor, vermin, or sanitation problems is addressed through RBMC 4-24.502 and the city's general nuisance provisions.
Unlike some nearby cities (for example Beverly Hills, which bans feeding pigeons), Redondo Beach's municipal code contains no standalone section prohibiting the feeding of wildlife, pigeons, seagulls, or feral cats. Where feeding leads to accumulations that attract rodents or create odor, noise, or sanitation hazards, the conduct is reachable under RBMC 4-24.502 (animal noise) and the city's general nuisance and health provisions, and feeding that harbors or maintains wild animals can implicate the nondomestic-animal permit framework of RBMC 5-1.401. California Fish and Game Code separately restricts intentionally feeding big-game and certain wildlife. Residents reporting nuisance feeding or wildlife problems should contact Redondo Beach Animal Control (310-318-0611). No published city fine schedule is specific to wildlife feeding.
There is no city wildlife-feeding-specific penalty. Enforcement is indirect: nuisance conditions (vermin, odor, sanitation, noise) from feeding are abatable under RBMC 4-24.502 and the general nuisance code, and maintaining wild animals can be treated as keeping a nondomestic animal without
