The Bruce family has informed county officials that they have decided to sell Bruce's Beach to the county for the estimated value of the Manhattan Beach property, Janice Hahn, chairperson of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, said in a tweet on Tuesday.
In July, county officials transferred the deed to the 7,000 square feet property to the great-grandsons of Willa and Charles Bruce, who owned the land before officials claimed eminent domain over it in 1924.
It was and is a shameful travesty and I’m glad it’s finally been resolved. It is not nearly enough. However this photo is misleading. The property is only about about 100 yards of beach.
coulda just said family
Seems low
Woke and broke!!! Trace the politicians behind the confiscation of the said property and charge 20 million on them.
Los Angeles County to pay family $20 million to buy back wrongly seized beach. There fixed it for you.
Why didn't the family sell for more to different buyer?
We apologize, Mr. & Mrs. Black.

Bruce family to sell its Bruce's Beach property back to LA County for $20 million'They (the Bruce family) feel what is best for them is selling this property back to the County for nearly $20 million and finally rebuilding the generational wealth they were denied for nearly a century. This is what reparations look like and it is a model that I hope governments across the country will follow,' said Janice Hahn, Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors chair, in a written statement. People forget, you're not allowed to buy beach property now in LAC. If you own one, you can only sell it back to the county. Wow. Reparations. Btw, 20 mil ain’t shit for that property. I guess they saw the annual property tax bill.

Family to sell Bruce's Beach property back to L.A. County for nearly $20 millionCounty officials say the Bruce family has agreed to sell the Bruce's Beach property in Manhattan Beach back to Los Angeles County for nearly $20 million. And turn it into affordable housing land. If Manhattan beach residents complain tell them to shut up, cause at least the Bruce family did their part to help where they haven't. What was the Bruce family paid back when the property was condemned? What was its actual fair market value then? This sets a bad precedent. What if that were a home and YOU owned it? Does this mean you get your house stolen from you when you had nothing to do with the original incident? And what about those who have had their home stolen due to 'eminent domain'?
