Did someone cut some trees down on property they didn't have permission to do that on? Call a lawyer if you're the property owner, because they might owe hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In L.A. any firm, person, or corporation that violates tree ordinance codes is subject to “fines anywhere between $5.00 and $200.00 per offense” but a jail term “not more than 50 days” may also apply.

So literally no consequences whatsoever. Those executives can casually spend more than what that adds up to on a single meal, and they obviously aren't going to get any jail time.
