I don't think they need anything in the Redondo City Charter, as the DFG regs say: "Any hoop net abandoned or left unchecked for more than 2 hours may be considered abandoned and may be seized by any person authorized to enforce these regulations."

The question is whether they are are authorized. It might be most productive to try to have a conversation with DFG about whether they are authorized, and if they are that they need more training (or at least a reminder) that the regs say they need to be checked every two hours, not that they need to constantly "attended." Since the regs allow you 5, you can't sit on top of all of them.

But if they are going to be overzealous, what about doing something like putting a tag on the float that you can mark the last time you checked (or maybe your cell number if you have reception on the water). Like cutting a diver's slate into smaller tags? Although you shouldn't have to, seems like it might save some headaches.
