Agenda packet, first session — Malibu City Council, May 12, 2025 (part 5 of 5)

b. Site Survey.

A site survey with the following items:

Property boundaries with bearings, distance, monuments, iron rods, or other markers shown; show existing and proposed lot lines.

North, date, scale, dimensions, and record boundaries of ownership.

Indicate topography by showing contours.

Location of trees at least four inches in diameter and at least 4.5 feet above ground.

Location of the existing OWTS
Wet-stamped and wet-signed by a registered civil engineer or surveyor.

The survey markers will clearly provide answers to these following questions:

1. The position of the property lines.

2. The position for the proposed fence location along the east property line.

3. The position of the proposed construction sites and distance from the property line and watershed zone.

4. The position of a 12' diameter Coastal Live Oak in relationship to the construction site.

5. The position and numbers of native toyon, coastal live oak and walnut trees (all protected species), which may be removed or uprooted during construction along the proposed property line.
806

6. The position of the watershed as it passes over the property line near Harvester Road.

7. The position of the OWTS as related to the watershed on Mr. Kent’s parcel.

Currently, the APPEAL hearing, without survey markers denies crucial information about the property rights of the neighbor's tangent parcel.

To ensure a fair and accurate visual analysis, the on-site survey markers must be properly positioned and marked. This will enable a comprehensive evaluation of the potential effects of the proposed development on our surrounding environment.

I respectfully request that the Planning Department require the applicant to correct this issue by positioning survey markers in full compliance with the city’s specifications, as outlined on page 3 of the CDP - 8. Survey.

COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT (CDP) No. 23-019
New Single-Family Residence, attached garage, detached ADU, detached Yoga studio, pool & spa, NOWTS,
Dear Mr. Kent,
On March 15, 2023, the application listed above was submitted to the City of Malibu’s Planning Department for processing. The subject property is located at 30053 Harvester Road (APN 4469-009-010) and is zoned Rural Residential District- Two Acre (RR-2). The subject property is not within the Appeal Jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission (CCC) as depicted on the Post – Local Coastal Program Certification Permit and Appeal Jurisdiction Map of the City of Malibu.

Our Planning Department Staff has completed an initial review of the application and determined on June 2, 2023, that the application submitted was INCOMPLETE and will require further information. To continue processing the application, please address the following items.

1. Staff needs to conduct a site visit to document existing conditions.

Zoning Conformance

1. Based on the information provided, the project appears to exceed the following zoning requirements:
i. Height maximum [LIP §3.6(E)(1-2)]: The base maximum height is 18 feet; however, this can be increased to 24 feet (flat roof) or 28 feet (pitched roof) subject to an approved site plan review (SPR). A pitched roof has a minimum 3:12 pitch. An SPR was not requested as part of the CDP application and proposed/modified roof heights exceed the maximum height. Please revise to 18 feet or request an SPR for heights above 18 feet. If an SPR is requested, please submit the SPR fee of $2,658 and written findings in LIP §13.27.5. ii. Setback Requirements [LIP §3.6(F)]: It is unclear if the proposed plans do meet the setback requirements Pursuant to LIP Section 3.6(F). Rear yard setbacks shall be at least 15 percent of the lot depth or 15 feet whichever is greater. Provide setback of rear property line to stairs leading to guest suite
iii. Two-thirds rule [LIP §3.6(K)(2)]: The project appears to exceed the two-thirds requirement. In no event can the floor area above 18 feet exceed the floor area below 18 feet. Generally, this is satisfied when demonstrated that the second floor area is two-thirds of the first floor area below.
808
CDP No. 23-019
30053 Harvester Road
April 27, 2023
iv. Site of Construction [LIP §3.6(J)]: The plans show proposed development on slopes greater than 3:1. All development on slopes greater than 3:1 but less than 2.5:1 require a Site Plan Review (SPR). Development on slopes steeper than 2.5:1 requires a VAR. Please revise the plans to remove development on slopes or request the appropriate discretionary request. v. Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Size: The 1,200 square foot ADU proposed is more than the 900 square feet allowed under LIP Section 3.6.
vi. Lot Legality: The site is vacant and proposed to be developed. The current Assessor’s parcel map shows some irregularities with the lot. You will need to apply for a Certificate of Compliance (COC) to legalize the lot before it can be developed.

Dear Members of the City Council and Planning Department, I am writing to formally address the upcoming appeal on April 28, 2025, regarding my neighbor’s building plan application and to highlight an important issue that must be resolved before the process moves forward: Mr. Kent's reliance on a degraded chainlink fence used as a survey marker and as a property line. This is unacceptable.

It has come to our attention that the applicant’ has not fully comply with the city’s requirements. As a resulted this is a misrepresentation of the impact of the proposed land development approved to the Planning Commission in March 2024. Within the CDP that was issued, in a letter June 2, 2023, on the 3rd page, it states Mr. Kent's site must be surveyed...with all site markings.

The omission of property survey markers led to an incomplete assessment of the fence line, watershed route and native vegetation growing on Mr. Kent's property and locations of the construction site from the neighbors property. The city's staff report was based on partial and incomplete information without a completed on-site survey and survey markers which will indicate the property lines.

Dear Members of the Malibu City Council,
It has come to our attention that the Philipsons are complaining about the story poles. For the record, the story poles were erected in full compliance with the City of Malibu approved plans, certified by our licensed surveyor, verified by city planning and seen in person by all five planning commissioners prior to our hearing last year.

The eighteen foot height and one-foot increments were clearly marked as evidenced by the attached photos. I met with Andrea Philipson prior to the hearing and specifically pointed out to her the eighteen foot height on the pole closest to her house, but perhaps she has forgotten in the year that has elapsed since the Philipsons filed their appeal.

Here is yet another example of the neighbor’s frivolous claims wasting all of our time.

Best,
Steven Kent

Subject: City Council Appeal 30053 Harvester Rd. - Compliance with Story Pole Installation Requirements
Dear Members of the City Council and Planning Department, I am writing to formally address the upcoming appeal on April 28, 2025, regarding my neighbor’s building plan application and to highlight an important issue that must be resolved before the process moves forward.

It has come to our attention that the applicant’s story pole installation does not fully comply with the city’s requirements. In fact, this resulted in a grave misrepresentation of the impact of the structure being proposed to the Planning Commission in March 2024. The required 18-foot height markings were not applied to all poles, which means the true height of the proposed structure over 18 feet was not properly indicated. The omission led to an incomplete assessment of our Primary View Determination (PVD) and the city's staff report was based on partial and incomplete information.

The story pole plan clearly outlines the following requirements:
“The top one foot of the story poles shall be painted with clearly visible black paint.

Markings shall also be made at 18 feet above finished or natural grade, whichever results in a lower building height, and at one-foot increments above 18 feet. Bright orange construction mesh, approximately one foot in width, shall be placed connecting poles to show all proposed roof and ridgelines.” Currently, the installation does not meet these specifications, which is crucial given the significant disagreement over the Primary View Determination. To ensure a fair and accurate visual analysis, the story poles must be properly marked. This will enable a comprehensive evaluation of the potential effects of the proposed development on our view and the surrounding environment.

Without the required markings and mesh, it is impossible to fully assess the visual and environmental effects of the proposed project. Therefore, I respectfully request that the Planning Department require the applicant to correct this issue by installing the story poles in full compliance with the city’s specifications, as outlined in the story pole plan.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We trust that the Planning Department will adhere to the city's regulations, thereby facilitating a fair and transparent evaluation of the proposed application.
821
Sincerely,
Andrea Slosberg Philipson

Good Morning Maureen,
In response to the recent accusations from the Philipsons, I would like you to know that the story poles remain in conformance to the approved plans. I met the surveyor at our property last Friday, and we verified that the poles still have the same white tape at the 18 ft. height and the black marks at one-foot increments (the same as shown in the photos I previously sent).

Unfortunately, it appears that the neighbors only sent photos of the poles under 18 feet. I am not sure if this was intentional, or if they still do not understand that only a few of the poles are taller than 18 feet. This is because 98% of the building is less than 18 feet and only a very small portion of our second story roof extends above that height (please see attached elevation drawing).

Last year prior to our planning commission hearing, Tyler Eaton met with the Phillipsons and determined that none of their primary views were obstructed by the portion of our house above 18 ft. Of course, at that time the white tape markings at the 18 ft. height were necessary for Malibu city planning to make the negative Primary View Determination. These markings were reviewed in detail with Andrea Philipson, both with Tyler Eaton and myself in separate site meetings. Since that time, the Philipsons have had over one year to study the story poles in detail.

When the city council members visit our property in the upcoming weeks before the appeal hearing, they will see for themselves that the story poles are in full compliance with the Malibu city codes, as is our proposed house.

Best,
Steve

Subject: Re: City Council Appeal 30053 Harvester Rd. - Compliance with Story Pole Installation Requirements
Hi Maureen,
I appreciate the prompt response and the orange plastic was replaced on the story poles at 30053 Harvester. However, I’ve noticed that the markings at 18 feet and above are not visible on all poles, as required by the city’s code. Given that we have a recorded Primary View Determination (PVD) that is directly impacted by these markings, it is crucial that we proceed with a full evaluation.

Unless there are clear markings showing the true height and the impact of the variance being requested, we cannot move forward with a comprehensive assessment. The analysis must be based on the real-life impact of the structures, not just the information presented on paper.

Please let me know how we can address this issue and ensure the markings comply with the necessary requirements. Your prompt attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response.

Best,
Andrea Slosberg Philipson

We have other concerns to review before the Appeal, so can you let us know how to proceed.

Best,

Subject: RE: City Council Appeal 30053 Harvester Rd. - Compliance with CDP- Survey Markers Date: Wednesday, April 2, 2025 9:27:55 AM
Attachments: Survey letter 4.2.25.pdf
Dear Members of the Malibu City Council,
Unfortunately, our neighbor Dawn Ericson has forgotten what transpired prior to our last hearing and has thrown another red herring. Ms. Erickson made the same allegations regarding our survey last year and now it is déjà vu all over again. Of course, our surveyor (ironically the same surveyor hired by Ms. Erickson for her property) completed the survey in compliance with all of the Malibu city requirements.

Last year prior to the hearing, Ms. Ericson alleged that our survey was not accurate to the fence line because her “landscaper” checked it with his phone app and thought it was four feet off. We then had to pay the surveyor to come back out to verify the property corners, the fence line and the oak tree that was on her property (please see the attached stamped survey from last year that was an exhibit during our planning commission hearing).

Despite Ms. Ericson’s references to native trees on her property, there is only one protected tree that is located far away from any proposed structures. In fact, the most predominant feature of the drainage gully bordering our property is a row of enormous eucalyptus trees that likely caused Ms. Ericson’s house to burn in the Woosley fire.

The Malibu city biologist has made three separate written determinations that there is no ESHA on Ms. Ericson’s property and that the smaller unprotected native trees appeared to be planted by Ms. Ericson. Our eminently respected biologist, Edith Read who has been working in Malibu for the past 30 years, also concluded that neither property is within environmentally sensitive habitat. And of course, there is no mapped ESHA on either property.

Prior to the planning commission hearing last year, it became apparent that Ms.

Ericson tried to create an imaginary ESHA in order to justify to the planning department pushing her house closer to her West neighbor before building her own home. The former planning director, Richard Mollica, explained during our planning commission hearing that Ms. Ericson submitted a plan by her landscape architect showing the supposed “ESHA” that has never been mapped by the city or the Coastal Commission. Richard Mollica explained that Ms. Ericson’s request to push her house closer to her neighbor’s property was subsequently rejected by city planning.

Now Ms. Ericson is trying to use the same false claims of ESHA to stop us from building our home, which is in full compliance with the Malibu LIP. Every time the neighbors throw out these bogus allegations, we are forced to spend thousands of dollars on professional consultants and additional city fees to refute complete nonsense.

The omission of property survey markers led to an incomplete assessment of the fence line, watershed route and native vegetation growing on Mr. Kent's property and locations of the construction site from the neighbors property. The city's staff report was based on partial and incomplete information without a completed on-site survey and survey markers which will indicate the property lines.

Page 3 ends

b. Site Survey.

A site survey with the following items:

Property boundaries with bearings, distance, monuments, iron rods, or other markers shown; show existing and proposed lot lines.

North, date, scale, dimensions, and record boundaries of ownership.

Indicate topography by showing contours.

Location of trees at least four inches in diameter and at least 4.5 feet above ground.

Location of the existing OWTS
Wet-stamped and wet-signed by a registered civil engineer or surveyor.

The survey markers will clearly provide answers to these following questions:

1. The position of the property lines.

2. The position for the proposed fence location along the east property line.

3. The position of the proposed construction sites and distance from the property line and watershed zone.

4. The position of a 12' diameter Coastal Live Oak in relationship to the construction site.

5. The position and numbers of native toyon, coastal live oak and walnut trees (all protected species), which may be removed or uprooted during construction along the proposed property line.

6. The position of the watershed as it passes over the property line near Harvester Road.

7. The position of the OWTS as related to the watershed on Mr. Kent’s parcel.

Currently, the APPEAL hearing, without survey markers denies crucial information about the property rights of the neighbor's tangent parcel.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We trust that the Planning Department will adhere to the city's regulations, thereby facilitating a fair and transparent evaluation of the proposed application by requiring survey markers. 833

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Riggins and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Susan Dueñas, Public Safety Director
Approved by: Joseph D. Toney, Acting City Manager
Date prepared: April 30, 2025 Meeting date: May 12, 2025 Subject: Private Security Options
RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Review an option for contracting with a private security firm to provide safety patrols in the neighborhoods affected by the Franklin and Palisades Fires, and 2) Provide direction to staff.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.

Should the Director of Emergency Services initiate an agreement, there will be a fiscal impact with expenditures being charged to account 102-3101 (Palisades Fire).

STRATEGIC PRIORITY: This item was not included in the Adopted FY 2024-25 Strategic Priority Project List, but this has been prioritized due to the declared emergency.

DISCUSSION: On the morning of January 7, 2025, the Palisades Fire broke out and quickly spread to Malibu, causing widespread damage to neighborhoods in eastern Malibu and along Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). PCH remains under resident and contractor-only closure from Will Rogers State Beach in Pacific Palisades to Carbon Beach in Malibu. The California National Guard’s Military Police Brigade is currently supporting the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) at the checkpoints within the burn area. However, the closure is expected to be lifted at the beginning of June, and the California National Guard is anticipated to demobilize, leaving the burn area with decreased law enforcement presence.

The opening of PCH to the general public will likely bring an influx of visitors to the city. In addition, areas affected by disasters frequently become targets of criminal activity, including the burglary of uninhabited homes and businesses due to damage and the theft of building materials during the reconstruction process. To address this vulnerability, City Council Meeting

Agenda Item # 6.B.
private security could be hired to patrol areas of concern to provide a consistent public safety presence and deter criminal activity after PCH opens. In consultation with LASD, a minimum of four patrol units operating 24 hours per day is recommended. This would allow two units to patrol PCH and two units to patrol the neighborhoods on the land side of PCH.

To gain more information about the cost to provide this service, staff issued a Request for Qualifications on April 9, 2025, and proposals were due on April 23, 2025.

The RFQ requested proposals from firms that could provide the following services:

1. Uniformed (unarmed) staff in public safety vehicles to patrol neighborhoods impacted by the Palisades Fire burn area.

2. Coordinate with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, as needed, to respond to criminal activity in the patrol areas, including theft, arson, vandalism, and more.

3. Coordinate with the City’s Parking Enforcement Team, as needed, to respond to illegal parking that poses public safety hazards.

4. Participate in community meetings, as needed, to provide insight into public safety patrol coverage and gain knowledge about areas where additional patrols will be required.

5. Respond to requests for service, including scaling up or scaling down patrol coverage.

6. Check in regularly with the City’s Public Safety Department to provide an overview of criminal activity, community behavior, traffic, and other concerns occurring within the patrol areas.

Staff received 20 proposals and ranked them based on the firm’s previous experience with similar assignments, working with local government, and law enforcement. The top five proposals – American Global, Citiguard, Covered 6, The Gadite Group, and Secural – were invited for interviews.

After the interviews, Covered 6 clearly stood above the rest because of their extensive experience working with neighboring cities and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Lost Hills Station, along with their overall qualifications.

The fully loaded cost for four patrol officers, plus a supervisor for 24 hours, seven days a week, is approximately $260,000 per month. Attached is the proposal from Covered 6 along with their rate sheet. Staff recommends that the Council consider directing the Director of Emergency Services to contract with Covered 6 for one month for the transition period after the National Guard demobilizes, with an option to extend the contract if desired.

Covered 6 shall continue to maintain its security officers uniforms so that they remain neat, clean, pressed, and lint free. Covered 6 shall abide by the uniform and shoe requirements.

11. Complaints: Covered 6 shall continue to investigate any complaint lodged against our employees.

Covered 6 understands that this complaint may be generated by the public or City staff and that the City may also choose to investigate complaints lodged against Covered 6’s employees in the performance of their duties while assigned to work for the City of Malibu. Covered 6 shall act swiftly to refine the account to ensure that only the most dedicated and professional security officers are assigned to the City of Malibu.

12. Covered 6 proposes to provide the City of Malibu with professional security services for security patrol of the City; and leverage Covered 6 technology at no-cost to the City to prevent, deter, and interdict criminal activity.

13. Covered 6 has successfully demonstrated its commitment to customer service by establishing meaningful working relationships with business owners, and residents within the cities it serves.

15. Covered 6 shall continue to maintain the strictest confidence of the City of Malibu, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office, and shall have all employees sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to deployment.

16. Covered 6 is highly qualified to provide the requested services in the proposal. In fact, Covered 6 maintains qualifications no other company in the industry can deploy. Since Covered 6 has been providing ongoing services in the City of Beverly Hills, similar services are being contracted in three other municipalities. This previous record of successful “public-private partnerships” set Covered 6 apart from other companies in the industry.

17. Covered 6 maintains a current patrol operator license and training facility license from the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. A City of Moorpark California Business License has been attached to this RFP as well.

PROPOSED PATROL STRUCTURE & STRATEGY
Covered 6 proposes the following patrol plan, developed specifically to meet the requirements detailed in the City of Malibu's Request for Qualifications. Our proposed plans are grounded in thorough due diligence undertaken to ensure their realism and effectiveness. This process involved consulting with experienced LASD deputies (current and former), analyzing LASD Reporting District maps, engaging directly with residents and business owners about local concerns (including crime, homelessness, traffic, and quality of life), and conducting on-site patrol assessments. This research provided critical insights into Malibu's specific operational context – its ~30.5 sq. mile geography, environment, traffic dynamics, density, and LASD's historical deployment – enabling us to craft a well-informed and responsive patrol strategy.

Being California natives, our executive staff members are intimately familiar with the proposed patrol area. Our knowledge comes from years of personal experience dining, surfing, and enjoying long-time relationships with residents in the community.

Pepperdine University in Malibu has been a Covered 6 client for approximately 15 years. Covered 6 has provided training, Public Safety staffing, investigations, and more. Covered 6 currently deploys full-time, armed Special Response Team (SRT) officers on campus for the mitigation of Active Shooter threats, as well as to provide patrol and medical response support. The Nobu Malibu Hotel has been a client of Covered 6 for approximately 5 years, providing uniformed security, with a concierge approach.

Additionally, Covered 6 has years of history of providing a variety of services in the City of Malibu. Not only have we successfully provided security services for the City, but we have provided technology, consulting and products for several residents and communities in the Malibu area.

Agenda Item # 6.C.

Revenues
The Revenues by Fund Report (pages A-1 through A-5) reflects General Fund revenues received of $23.4 million or 37.2% of the amended budgeted amount for the fiscal year.

Total revenue for all funds received through the second quarter is $28.26 million or

32.5% of the Amended Budget amount for the fiscal year. Many revenue sources are received on a quarterly or annual basis and, as such, will be reflected when the year-end report is presented. For example, property taxes are remitted by the County after they are paid by property owners in December and April; Property Tax - In Lieu payments typically come at the end of the year; and Transient Occupancy Tax - Private Rentals is remitted quarterly. Therefore, this report only reflects payments made in October for the period of July through September. The second quarter payments will be received by the end of January and are not included in this report. Sales Tax is remitted quarterly to the State and then passed along to the City, so there is some lag in those receipts as well.

Additionally, total City revenue includes grant reimbursements for Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) expenditures that are typically received at the end of the fiscal year.

Expenditures
The Expenditure by Fund Report (pages A-6 through A-11) reflects budget carryovers from FY 2023-24, as well as the appropriations approved by the City Council for the current fiscal year in the Amended Budget column. Budget Adjustments, Carryovers, Corrections and Council Appropriations total $1,322,398 through December 31, 2024.

General Fund expenditures for the second quarter total $24.32 million or 30.9% of the Amended Budget amount. Expenditures for all funds total $34.4 million or 34.3% of the Amended Budget amount.

Fund Balances
Projected Fund Balances for the fiscal year end are reflected on page A-12. The projected Undesignated Fund Balance at June 30, 2025, includes all expenses appropriated by the Council as of December 31, 2024. The City ended FY 2023-24 with $75.5 million in the Undesignated General Fund Reserve, with $11.9 million committed for Capital, leaving a July 1, 2025, starting fund balance of $63.7 million. As of December 31, 2024, the projected General Fund Undesignated Reserve at June 30, 2025, is $64.5 million. In addition, $6.5 million remains in contingency.

Personnel
Additional staff positions are being requested to assist the City with increased workload and rebuild efforts following the recent wildfires. The City Manager’s Office is requesting two positions: Senior Management Analyst and Management Analyst; the City Clerk Department is requesting one position – Administrative Assistant; and one additional position is required for the Malibu Rebuild Center – Office Assistant/Receptionist. The intent is to immediately assist and relieve the additional workload on staff. The estimated annual impact of this change is $501,125 and a small budget of $41,760 is included in the mid-year amendments should recruitment efforts be realized expeditiously. Staffing needs will continue to be assessed and, if necessary, will be included in the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget.

The addition of these positions requires the Council to adopt an updated Authorized Positions Resolution for FY 2024-25, which is included with this report.

Anticipated Future Revenue Impacts
After the Second Quarter of FY 2024-25, the Palisades Fire caused substantial and prolonged economic disruption to the City of Malibu, which may result in economic losses. These losses encompass both direct impacts to City revenues and broader indirect effects on the local economy, primarily driven by the displacement of residents and the destruction of permitted short-term rental (STR) units. The City is projected to experience direct fiscal revenue losses, including:
• Sales Tax and Use Tax Loss: $671,000 for FY 2024–25, reflecting a sharp decline in local purchases by residents and visitors
• Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Loss: $1,264,800 annually from the loss of STR lodging capacity
Initial estimates for a full fiscal year include a $1.12 million loss in property tax revenue in FY 2025-26, this impact could be fully backfilled under Assembly Bill 100 for FYs 2024– 25 and 2025–26. Forecasted out year revenue projections will be included in the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget.

Page 5 of 5 ends

Agenda Item # 6.C.
• Visitor Spending Loss: $11.8 million annually, accounting for both direct visitor expenditures and secondary impacts on local businesses. • Full-year impacts are projected to continue through FY 2025–26 and FY 2026–27, with no significant recovery in displaced household spending or STR visitor lodging capacity anticipated during this period.

While some overlap between household and visitor spending losses and sales tax impacts is possible, these estimates conservatively reflect gross losses without deducting overlap amounts.

This analysis highlights the scale of the economic challenge facing Malibu and underscores the need for coordinated recovery strategies, including infrastructure rebuilding, expedited permitting for displaced residents, and reinvestment in Malibu’s tourism sector to restore long-term economic stability.

Potential Unfunded Expenditures
Economic uncertainty for the rest of 2025 remains high, with concerns over inflation, interest rates, and global supply chain disruptions continuing to shape financial markets.

The federal government could shift its funding posture on disaster relief programs like FEMA and CDBG, with significant cuts and restructuring efforts underway. These changes could have lasting impacts on disaster preparedness and economic stability across the country. The City has continued with disaster response and recovery efforts and will pursue federal funding and FEMA reimbursement for eligible expenses under traditional rules, but if there are changes at the federal level then some of the anticipated financial recovery may be borne by the General Fund Fund Balance.

Administration and Finance Subcommittee Recommendation
On May 7, 2025, the Administration and Finance Subcommittee reviewed the FY 2024- 25 Second Quarter Mid-Year Financial Report and recommended that the Council approve the FY 2024-25 mid-year budget amendments and the revised authorized positions.

The Palisades Fire has caused substantial and prolonged economic disruption to the City of Malibu, resulting in total estimated economic losses of approximately $40.9 million.

These losses encompass both direct impacts to City revenues and broader indirect effects on the local economy, primarily driven by the displacement of approximately 1,400 residents and the destruction of 62 permitted short-term rental (STR) units.

Direct City Revenue Losses
The City is projected to experience approximately $3.8 million in direct fiscal revenue losses, including:
• Sales Tax Loss: $986,000 for FY 2024–25, reflecting a sharp decline in local purchases by residents and visitors.
• Prop MC Transactions and Use Tax Loss: $426,000 for FY 2024–25. • Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Loss: $1,264,800 annually from the loss of STR lodging capacity.

Although initial estimates included a $1.12 million loss in property tax revenue, this impact is expected to be fully backfilled under Assembly Bill 100 for fiscal years 2024–25 and 2025–26 and is therefore excluded from the ongoing loss estimates.

Broader Economic Impacts
In addition to direct revenue impacts, the City faces significant broader economic losses tied to reduced household and visitor spending:
• Household Spending Loss: $25.32 million annually, including both direct spending reductions and indirect business effects due to displaced residents. • Visitor Spending Loss: $11.8 million annually, accounting for both direct visitor expenditures and secondary impacts on local businesses. • The second half of FY 2024–25 reflects a partial year impact beginning January 2025.
• Full-year impacts are projected to continue through FY 2025–26 and FY 2026–27, with no significant recovery in displaced household spending or STR visitor lodging capacity anticipated during this period.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 3 While some overlap between household and visitor spending losses and sales tax impacts is possible, these estimates conservatively reflect gross losses without deducting overlap amounts.

Estimated Losses by Fiscal Year
The economic impacts are expected to unfold as follows:

Fiscal Year Estimated Economic
Loss
FY 2024–25 (Jan–June
2025) $18.9 million
FY 2025–26 $35.85 million
FY 2026–27 $35.85 million
Note: The total estimated economic loss of approximately $40.9 million reflects gross fiscal and economic impacts. Some overlap between reduced household and visitor spending and lost sales tax revenues is possible but has not been deducted from the total. These estimates are intentionally conservative to present the full scope of the fire’s disruption on Malibu’s economy.

Scope of Work Overview
This report presents a comprehensive economic impact assessment of the Palisades Fire on the City of Malibu. The analysis is based on structural damage, displacement of residents, disruption to tourism and local commerce, and loss of tax-generating activities. The scope of work includes:

Property Tax Revenue Loss - An evaluation of assessed improvement value loss across over 650 destroyed or damaged properties, with estimated tax revenue reductions for the City beginning in FY 2025–26.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 4 Retail Sales and Local Spending Decline - An analysis of the reduction in retail activity resulting from the displacement of approximately 1,400 residents, with both direct and indirect (multiplier-based) impacts quantified.

Short-Term Rental and TOT Revenue Loss - A detailed estimate of visitor spending and transient occupancy tax (TOT) revenue lost due to the destruction of 62 permitted shortterm rentals, along with secondary impacts on tourism-serving businesses.

Visitor Spending and Tourism Impact Modeling - A projection of tourism disruption during peak and shoulder seasons, including reduced demand, infrastructure access constraints, and lagging visitor confidence.

Future Recovery Potential and Rebuilding Outlook - A modeled roadmap for Malibu’s recovery over a 36-month horizon, including tourism recovery benchmarks, community rebuilding timelines, and targeted strategies to accelerate economic stabilization.

This report integrates tables, source citations, and economic modeling to provide city leadership with a fact-based framework for informed decision-making. It also outlines actionable strategic recommendations to support long-term recovery and resilience planning.

Community Overview: City of Malibu
The City of Malibu is a small but economically vibrant coastal community with a population of approximately 12,330 residents. Population projections indicate only modest growth over the next five years, with an estimated increase to 12,343 residents.

The community includes a notable group quarters population of 721, which likely reflects students residing in on-campus housing at Pepperdine University — a major local institution that contributes significantly to the city’s cultural and economic life.

Malibu is home to roughly 4,859 households, with a slight projected increase to 4,866.

The city also maintains a high median household income of $154,866, reflecting the area’s affluence, desirability, and elevated cost of living.

The local economy supports 852 workplace establishments that employ approximately 9,451 individuals. This highlights Malibu's role as both a residential enclave and an employment center, where a mix of small businesses, hospitality services, educational institutions, and tourism-related industries drive local economic activity.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 5 In recent years, Malibu has faced increasing economic pressures tied to the impacts of wildfires, including the Palisades Fire. These events have disrupted housing, displaced residents, and temporarily reduced tourism and business activity — all of which have short- and long-term implications for the city’s economy. As the city works toward recovery and resilience, understanding these economic impacts is essential to shaping future policy and investment.

Fiscal Revenue Losses to the City of Malibu (Direct Impact) Property Tax Revenue Impact
The Palisades Fire damaged or destroyed 531 single-family homes, 55 multi-family properties, 34 partially improved vacant parcels, and 9 commercial parcels.

While the Palisades Fire caused significant structural damage and displacement, the fiscal impact on property tax revenues is expected to be mitigated in the short term. According to HdL’s Property Tax team, the passage and signing of Assembly Bill 100 by the Governor includes an appropriation to backfill property tax revenue losses for affected taxing entities in fiscal years 2024–25 and 2025–26. This action ensures that the City of Malibu will not experience a net loss in property tax revenue during this period, despite physical property damage caused by the fire.

It is worth noting, however, that while the legislative intent is clear, some technical adjustments may be necessary to better align the funding mechanism with actual property tax allocation formulas. Nonetheless, the impact to Malibu’s general fund from property tax during these two fiscal years is assumed to be negligible.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 6 Looking ahead to FY 2026–27, the long-term impact is more difficult to project. The resale of fire-damaged lots—often at reduced market values—could offset assessed value declines initially caused by the fire. Additionally, because the property tax roll for FY 2026–27 is set as of January 1, 2026, and the Assessor typically does not apply partial improvement values to single-family residences, any rebuilding activity is unlikely to influence property tax revenues in that year. Most completed structures will be reassessed after their completion, which for many properties will fall beyond the January 1 deadline.

In summary, no significant property tax losses are expected for FY 2024–25 and 2025–26, and while potential impacts may emerge in FY 2026–27, those are highly speculative at this stage and are not included in the quantitative estimate of losses.

If not for the backfill provided by AB 100, the following would have been the City's original estimate of property tax loss. The Palisades Fire damaged or destroyed 531 single-family homes, 55 multi-family properties, 34 partially improved vacant parcels, and 9 commercial parcels. The improvement value of the damaged properties totals approximately $1.59 billion, generating $15.93 million in property tax revenue. Based on the City's share of 7.043796%, the estimated revenue loss — assuming a total loss of improvement value — would have been approximately $1,122,263. This shortfall was projected to begin in FY 2025–26 and could have offset expected growth for that year.

The table below illustrates what the property tax loss would have been without the backfill.

Sales tax revenue in Malibu peaks during the summer months. Over the past four years, the third quarter (July–September) has consistently generated the highest returns, averaging $5,100,906—approximately 20.33% more than other quarters. This seasonal surge reflects the city’s reliance on tourism-related spending, as visitors contribute heavily to sales in restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores, and retail establishments.

However, the recent Palisades Fire (January 2025), preceded by the Franklin Fire (December 2024), has significantly disrupted this trend. These events led to widespread evacuations, the destruction of more than a thousand structures, and the displacement of approximately 1,406 residents. Major tourist attractions were closed, and local foot traffic plummeted. As a result, businesses—particularly in retail, dining, and fuel services—are expected to experience sharp revenue declines during what is typically the city's most economically robust quarter.

Short-term sales tax impacts from these fires have been incorporated into updated growth factors beginning in Q4 2024. HdL utilized geographic (GEO) area reports to exclude revenue from permanently lost businesses, with a notable focus on the RevenueHolding (RH) category. Forecasted declines in point-of-sale activity for grocery stores, service stations, and restaurants are expected to affect both Bradley-Burns local sales tax and Prop MC revenues similarly. However, variances in losses for auto dealers, building and construction suppliers, business and industry (B&I), and general consumer goods (GCG) categories will differ based on taxpayer composition.

In the fiscal year 2024-25, HdL is projecting a substantial decrease in Sales and Use Tax income compared to the previous fiscal year 2023-24. The actual income for FY 2023-24 amounted to $5,562,332, whereas the projected income for FY 2024-25 stands at $4,576,185. This represents a reduction of $986,147, equating to a 17.8% decrease.

Despite this decline, we anticipate a recovery in the subsequent years. The projected income for FY 2025-26 is $5,004,285, reflecting an 9.8% increase from FY 2024-25.

Furthermore, the projected income for FY 2026-27 is $5,490,785 indicating a 9.7% increase from FY 2025-26. However, it is important to note that even with these growth rates, the income for both FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 will remain below the actual income of FY 2023-24.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 8 As for the Prop MC Transaction and Use Tax budget estimate the fiscal year 2024-25, HdL is projecting a substantial decrease in income compared to the previous fiscal year 2023-24. The actual income for FY 2023-24 amounted to $4,141,736, whereas the projected income for FY 2024-25 stands at $3,716,161. This represents a reduction of $425,575, equating to a 10.3% decrease.

Despite this decline, we anticipate a recovery in the subsequent years. The projected income for FY 2025-26 is $3,904,861, reflecting a 5.1% increase from FY 2024-25.

Furthermore, the projected income for FY 2026-27 is $4,210,161, indicating a 7.8% increase from FY 2025-26. However, it is important to note that even with these growth rates, the income for both FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 will remain below the actual income of FY 2023-24.

Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Revenue Loss
The City of Malibu imposes a 15% Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) on hotel stays and short-term rental (STR) accommodations. As a result of the fire, 62 permitted STR properties were destroyed. Based on tourism analytics, an average annual STR revenue of $136,000, the projected TOT revenue loss attributable to these STRs is approximately $1,264,800 per year, $632,400 for the current fiscal year.

Assuming no rebuilding or re-activation of STRs in the near term, the City would experience an estimated $1,264,800 loss in FY 2025–26. Partial recovery is expected to begin in FY 2026–27 as reconstruction progresses. Accounting for a modest 30% return to market by mid-2026, the estimated TOT loss in FY 2026–27 would decrease to approximately $885,360.

Local Spending Losses from Resident Displacement (Direct + Indirect)
Overview
The displacement of 1,400 residents has led to reduced local economic activity in both taxable and non-taxable categories. This section captures both the direct reduction in household spending and the indirect impacts on local businesses and services. $0

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 11 Using data from the HdL Companies’ Consumer Demand & Market Supply Report and economic multipliers from state tourism and retail studies, the analysis considers both direct and indirect impacts on local consumer activity.

Estimated Household Spending Losses
This section outlines the estimated loss in local spending resulting from the displacement of approximately 1,400 residents due to the destruction of homes in the Palisades Fire. The analysis uses data from the HdL Companies’ Retail Consumer Demand & Market Supply Report, which identifies
disparities between consumer demand and
available supply across major retail categories
in Malibu, revealing whether residents are
spending locally or leaking their purchases to
nearby cities or online retailers.

In Malibu, the Consumer Demand & Market Supply analysis had already revealed significant leakage in key sectors such as grocery stores, apparel, and general merchandise, indicating that many residents were shopping outside city limits. The loss of full-time residents exacerbates this problem. With over 1,400 displaced individuals no longer making day-to-day purchases—such as groceries, fuel, pharmacy items, dining, and personal services—the city’s small but critical consumer base has shrunk considerably.

US Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey (CES) estimates that displaced residents would have spent an average of $12,000 annually per person on local goods and services,
In that CES income bracket, the average annual spending per person on items such as groceries, dining, gasoline, entertainment, apparel, and personal care routinely exceeds $10,000–$14,000, depending on location and household size. Adjusting this for Malibu’s cost of living and spending tendencies makes $12,000 a reasonable benchmark for analysis.

This reduction in resident-driven commerce places added strain on already vulnerable local businesses, particularly small grocers, restaurants, gas stations, and service providers that rely on consistent year-round patronage to remain viable in a tourismdriven economy.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 12 In total, the displacement of approximately 1,400 residents is projected to result in an estimated $25.32 million in combined direct and indirect household spending loss on an annual basis. For the second half of FY 2024–25, the estimated loss is approximately $12.66 million, with full-year losses of $25.32 million anticipated for both FY 2025–26 and FY 2026–27.

This sustained decline in everyday economic activity represents more than just lost transactions—it threatens the viability of Malibu’s essential local businesses that rely on consistent, year-round community support. Without this resident-driven commerce, small grocers, gas stations, service providers, and independent restaurants face heightened financial vulnerability in an already seasonal, tourism-dependent economy.

The prolonged impact on local spending highlights the critical need for targeted recovery efforts to support Malibu’s small business ecosystem and mitigate long-term economic disruption.

Indirect Economic Effects of Residential Displacement
Using a conservative multiplier of 1.5x, the indirect economic ripple effect of displaced resident spending is estimated at approximately $8.4 million annually. These effects are felt most strongly by local grocery stores, restaurants, service providers, and gas stations that rely on consistent year-round patronage to remain viable in Malibu’s seasonal economy.

Applying this multiplier, which is drawn from Dean Runyan Associates and Visit California modeling standards, the total annual economic impact of displaced resident spending— including both direct household spending losses and indirect business effects—is projected at $25.32 million per year.

Given the timeline for residential rebuilding and return, the projected economic losses are anticipated to continue through at least FY 2026–27. For the second half of the current fiscal year (January–June 2025), the estimated loss is approximately $12.66 million, with full-year impacts expected thereafter.

The estimated economic losses assume no significant growth or recovery in displaced resident spending over the next two fiscal years. Given the complexity of Malibu’s residential rebuilding process—including lengthy permitting timelines, high construction costs, and coastal development regulations—full restoration of the affected housing stock is not expected within the 24- to 30-month recovery horizon. As a result, the economic impact associated with displaced residents is anticipated to remain steady April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 13 through FY 2025–26 and FY 2026–27, with no material increase in local household spending until substantial rebuilding is completed and residents are able to return.

Tourism Profile and Visitor Spending
Malibu, California, is a premier coastal destination known for its natural beauty, upscale accommodations, and vibrant tourism sector. Visitors are drawn to its 21 miles of scenic coastline, world-class surfing beaches, and relaxed luxury lifestyle. Tourism plays a critical role in Malibu’s economy, directly supporting
local businesses, hospitality services, and city
revenues through sales and transient
occupancy taxes.

Visitor Volume and Seasonal Trends
Malibu experiences its peak tourism season
during the summer months, particularly July
and August, coinciding with warm weather
and school vacations. Fall, especially
September and early October, offers favorable weather with fewer crowds, making it an increasingly popular shoulder season for visitors.

Annual Retail and Indirect Residential Spending Potential Impact Estimated displaced residents: 1,406
Average annual local spending per resident: $12,000
Total Annual Direct Spending Loss: $16.88m
Multiplier (direct + indirect impacts): $8.4m
Estimated Annual Total Economic Impact: $25.32m
April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 14 Visitor Spending Patterns
According to Airbtics, visitor spending in Malibu varies based on accommodation type and travel style. Airbnb guests spend on average $3,242 per 4.5-night stay (~$754 per night). The most common booking party size is 4.3 people. Broader visitor spending estimates in Los Angeles County are:
• Budget travelers: $110/day
• Mid-range travelers: $300/day
• Luxury travelers: $879/day
Short-Term Rental (STR) Visitor Spending Loss
Overview
Short-term rentals (STRs) are a foundational pillar of Malibu’s hospitality economy. As of 2020, STRs represented approximately 74% of all
overnight accommodations within city limits, significantly exceeding the capacity of Malibu's traditional hotel
sector. These properties offer flexible lodging options that attract both mid-range and luxury travelers, often for
extended stays and group bookings, which magnifies
their local economic impact.

The Palisades Fire destroyed 62 permitted STRs, resulting in an immediate and measurable loss in lodging capacity and associated visitor expenditures. This section
quantifies the direct and indirect visitor economic impacts of these lost units using data from Airbtics, the California Coastal Commission, and tourism spending models from Dean Runyan Associates and Visit California.

Estimated Annual Revenue and Visitor Loss
Based on tourism analytics, the typical Short-Term Rental unit in Malibu:
• Earns $136,000 in annual revenue
• Is booked for approximately 212 nights per year
• Hosts an average group size of 4.3 guests
• Accommodates guests for an average stay of 4.5 nights • Generates $3,242 per stay in guest spending (excluding service/cleaning fees) Applying these figures to the 62 destroyed STRs, we estimate:

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 15 Impact on Short Term Rental Revenue
Metric Value
Total STRs Lost 62
Estimated Annual Revenue Lost $8.43 million
Estimated Stays Lost Annually ~2,601 stays
Estimated Visitors Lost Annually ~11,184 guests
Peak Season (June–August) Impact
Tourism in Malibu is heavily concentrated during the summer months, where the city sees its highest visitor volume. STR occupancy surges during June through August, making this a critical window for local economic activity. Using a seasonal estimate of 25% of annual STR activity occurring in summer, the estimated peak-season impact from the STR losses is as follows:

Peak-season Impact from STR Losses
Metric Value
Stays Lost (Peak Season) ~699 stays
Visitors Lost (Peak Season) ~2,796 guests
Direct Visitor Spending Loss $2.11 million
Indirect & Induced Impact (1.6x Multiplier) $3.37 million Summary of Estimated Economic Losses
The Palisades Fire has resulted in significant economic disruption to the City of Malibu, with total estimated losses exceeding $37.1 million. These losses encompass a combination of direct fiscal impacts to city revenues and broader indirect effects on the local economy.
• Property Tax Loss (Direct): Estimated at $1.12 million, based on damage to over 650 residential and commercial properties.
• Sales Tax Loss (Estimated): The city is projected to lose approximately $986,000 in sales tax revenue due to the drop in resident and visitor purchases. • Prop MC Transactions and Use Tax (Estimated): $426,000 • Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Loss: Reduced short-term rental activity is expected to cause a $1.26 million shortfall in TOT revenue.

Resident Retail Spending Loss (Direct & Indirect): Displacement of approximately 1,400 residents is projected to result in a $25.32 million reduction in retail and service activity, accounting for both direct spending and multiplier effects.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 16 Short-Term Rental (STR) Visitor Spending Loss: The destruction of 62 permitted STRs has led to an estimated $8.43 million in direct visitor spending loss, with an additional $3.37 million in indirect impacts from reduced tourism-related business activity.

Together, these losses represent a substantial setback to Malibu’s tourism-dependent economy. It is important to note that some household and visitor spending losses may overlap with sales tax impacts, as reduced spending naturally results in lower taxable sales. The figures underscore the urgency of targeted recovery strategies, including infrastructure repair, expedited permitting, and tourism reinvestment.

Given that the property tax loss is expected to be fully backfilled under Assembly Bill 100, the remaining economic losses—comprising sales tax, transient occupancy tax, household spending, and visitor spending impacts—are projected to occur at approximately 50% of the annual total for the second half of FY 2024–25, with full-year losses continuing in both FY 2025–26 and FY 2026–27. No significant recovery in displaced household spending or visitor lodging capacity is anticipated during this period.

Note: Property tax losses are expected to be fully backfilled under Assembly Bill 100 for FY 2024–25 and FY 2025–26. As a result, the ongoing projected economic losses focus primarily on sales tax, transient occupancy tax, household spending, and visitor spending impacts.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 17 Infrastructure Damage and Economic Ripple Effects
Broader Implications for Tourism and Recovery
The STR losses caused by the Palisades Fire compound other tourism disruptions— including damaged roads, reduced lodging availability, utility outages, and closures of visitor-serving businesses. Even travelers not directly affected by lost STRs may avoid Malibu due to perceived or real limitations in accessibility, safety, and amenities.

These factors amplify the city’s fiscal
vulnerability, especially given Malibu’s
reliance on TOT (Transient Occupancy Tax)
and visitor-driven sales tax. With a 15% TOT
and 0.195% tourism assessment fee, every
missed stay represents not only a lost
economic opportunity for private operators
but also reduced funding for city services,
public safety, and tourism-related
infrastructure.

The Palisades Fire caused widespread damage to Malibu’s critical infrastructure, including water lines, roadways, electrical grids, and communication networks. While some of these systems have been partially restored, utility repairs remain ongoing, and intermittent closures of Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) continue to disrupt both resident mobility and visitor access. The PCH is not only the city’s primary traffic artery but also a lifeline for the flow of commerce, tourism, and emergency services.

Governor Newsom’s emergency order has helped expedite permitting and environmental clearances for rebuilding, and FEMA-supported cleanup efforts are already underway. However, full infrastructure restoration is expected to take 12 to 24 months, depending on funding approvals, contractor availability, and the prioritization of state and federal resources.

Although the direct monetary loss from infrastructure damage may be difficult to quantify, its economic consequences are significant and widespread. The disruption of utilities and transportation impacts:
• Local businesses, many of which rely on reliable electricity, broadband, and water access to operate, especially restaurants, salons, and retail.

April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 18 • Visitor confidence, as tourists may avoid destinations perceived as unstable, hard to reach, or lacking basic amenities.
• Resident spending patterns since commuting difficulty and supply chain issues may prompt locals to shop outside of Malibu or delay discretionary purchases. • Reconstruction timelines, as construction crews face delays and added costs tied to utility outages, damaged access roads, and material delivery challenges.

Furthermore, prolonged infrastructure outages can undermine the effectiveness of other recovery efforts, including the reopening of short-term rentals, hospitality services, and essential city functions.

While these effects may not always result in immediate, line-item fiscal losses, they pose a strategic economic risk that warrants attention in recovery planning. The ability of Malibu to accelerate infrastructure stabilization will be a key determinant of how quickly the local economy rebounds from the fire.

Strategic Recommendations for City Leadership – Malibu Fire Recovery
To support Malibu’s long-term economic recovery and minimize the fiscal impact of the Palisades Fire, city leadership should implement a multifaceted strategy focused on accelerating rebuilding, restoring economic activity, and rebuilding visitor confidence.

The following recommendations are based on best practices from other fire-impacted communities in California and insights from the state’s tourism and emergency management agencies.

Fast-Track Permits for STR Rebuilds and Small Business Repairs • Expedite plan checks and building permits for damaged or destroyed STR properties, prioritizing those that generate TOT revenue. • Implement pre-approved architectural templates and over-the-counter permit processes for small business and residential rebuilds.
• Waive or defer select fees for fire-impacted property owners to reduce financial barriers.
• Establish a dedicated Fire Rebuild Coordinator to assist applicants and streamline approvals.

Coordinate with FEMA, Cal OES, and Insurers to Expedite Infrastructure Funding April 2025 Economic Impact Study for the Palisades Fire for City of Malibu 19 • Engage with FEMA and Cal OES to prioritize Malibu’s utility, road, and broadband restoration projects.
• Submit comprehensive damage assessments to qualify for full federal reimbursement.
• Monitor insurance payout timelines and coordinate with policyholders. • Designate a city liaison to manage inter-agency coordination.

Develop a Phased Tourism Relaunch Campaign Targeting High-Value Travelers • Launch a marketing initiative timed to match reopening milestones. • Target luxury travelers, wellness tourists, and remote professionals. • Partner with Visit California, chambers, and travel influencers. • Emphasize responsible tourism and support for local recovery.

Provide Small Grants or Bridge Loans to Reopen Visitor-Serving Businesses • Establish a recovery fund using city, federal, or private funding sources. • Offer micro-grants or no-interest loans up to $25,000 for small businesses. • Prioritize businesses with local hires and tourist-facing services. • Collaborate with the SBDC and regional banks to manage funding distribution.

Establish a ‘Visit Malibu Strong’ Brand Identity for Post-Recovery Marketing • Create a unified brand campaign that promotes resilience and safe travel. • Highlight local recovery stories and reopened businesses. • Use social media, city websites, business signage, and billboards. • Coordinate with local businesses and tourism partners to scale messaging.

The City of Malibu is well-positioned to rebuild and rebound—but that recovery will depend on clear leadership, targeted investments, and a strong message to residents and visitors that Malibu remains open, resilient, and ready for renewal.

Subject: Amendment to the Malibu Municipal Code Title 17 (Zoning) Modifying Standards and Procedures to Stimulate Economic Recovery for Local Businesses as a result of Impacts from the 2025 Palisades Fire, Specifically Related to Temporary Use Permits and Sign Permits RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Adopt Resolution No. 25-23 initiating a Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) to consider changes to Title 17 (Zoning) of the Malibu Municipal Code (MMC) to stimulate economic recovery for local businesses as a result of impacts from the 2025 Palisades Fire, specifically related to Temporary Use Permits and Sign Permits; 2) Bypass the Zoning Ordinance Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee (ZORACES); and 3) Direct the Planning Commission to schedule a public hearing regarding the same.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.

DISCUSSION: Pursuant to MMC Section 17.74.040, a change in the text of the Malibu Zoning Ordinance (MMC Title 17) must be initiated by the Council through a resolution of intention. The resolution gives notice that the Council will consider changes to the code and directs the Planning Commission to hold a public hearing, which is also required by the MMC, to make a recommendation.

The Council is limited to the issues reasonably within the scope of the notice. In this resolution, the City Council is announcing its intent to consider changes to MMC Title 17 to adopt provisions to help stimulate economic recovery for local businesses as a result of impacts from the 2025 Palisades Fire, specifically related to Temporary Use Permits (TUP) and Sign Permits (SP).

Agenda Item # 7.B.

Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) has been closed to the general public from the eastern City limit to the Carbon Beach area since the Palisades Fire broke out on January 7, 2025. The PCH closure has inhibited visitors coming from the greater Los Angeles area to Malibu.

Currently the only way for people to get to Malibu coming from the greater Los Angeles area is through US Route 101 then via Malibu Canyon Road or Kanan Dume Road, adding much more travel time and traffic delays. As a result, businesses throughout the city have been severely impacted by the lack of visitors. Business owners have publicly stated that they’ve seen losses as much as 80 percent year over year.

The City Council has been considering ways to help impacted businesses and have asked staff to come back with a plan to lessen TUP and Sign Permit requirements, in order to make it easier for businesses seeking to have events. Current TUP requirements obligate an applicant to submit their application within 35 days of an event, with noticing to the public within 32 days. The current TUP ordinance (MMC Chapter 17.68) also does not differentiate between a small or large event, with each requiring the same application and public noticing deadlines. Each parcel is limited to only six (6) TUPs per year, regardless of size. With the summer months approaching, the reduction in TUP and SP requirements will help to invite visitors to Malibu in hopes of spurring economic activity during the busiest time of the year for the city historically.

Zone Text Amendment
If this resolution of intention is approved, staff will recommend changes to the City's zoning code related to TUPs and SP reductions in application and noticing requirements and also propose to allow more than just six (6) TUPS per parcel, per year. Approval of this item will authorize and direct the staff to prepare for consideration a ZTA as described herein and in the attached resolution.

Staff requests that the City Council provide any feedback at the May 12, 2025 meeting so staff can effectively carry out the objectives of the Council. The Council will ultimately approve the final changes to the TUP and SP ordinances, but staff want to ensure consistency with Council direction before moving too far along. The initial staff proposal is summarized below for the Council’s consideration and is to last one (1) year from the date of adoption:
- 99 people or less; no TUP required only a planning clearance with no noticing requirements. Application to be submitted at least three (3) days before an event.

The less than 100 person limit is consistent with the Special Events ordinance (MMC Chapter 5.34) to which a Special Event Permit is not required for an event with less than 100 guests. There shall be no limit to these permits but the City withholds the right to deny or revoke a permit if a property owner violates the terms of approval.

These events will show up on the Event Report published on the City’s website every week.

Page 3 of 3 ends

Agenda Item # 7.B.
- 100 – 250 people; a TUP is required and an application must be submitted within seven (7) days of the event. There will be noticing required to everyone within 500 feet within five (5) days of the event. There shall be 20 of these events allowed per year. These events will also show up on the Event Report published on the City’s website every week.
- 251 and above; the current TUP requirements within MMC Chapter 17.68 will apply with the 35 day application submittal and 32 day noticing requirements. They will also be limited to only six (6) events per year.
- Allow signage consistent with MMC Section 17.52.050(E), which allows for Special Permits for signs that are not greater than 16 square feet in size and limited to two (2) per parcel. Staff also recommends putting further restrictions on these signs in regards to being temporary in nature, with no permanent footings or foundations, and not allowing them to be illuminated.

STAFF FOLLOW-UP: If approved, staff will prepare a staff report and proposed ordinance, including any environmental review required, bypass ZORACES, and notice the matter for public hearing before the Planning Commission.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MALIBU

INITIATING A ZONING TEXT AMENDMENT TO CONSIDER CHANGES TO TITLE 17 (ZONING) OF THE MALIBU MUNICIPAL CODE TO STIMULATE

ECONOMIC RECOVERY FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES AS A RESULT OF
IMPACTS FROM THE 2025 PALISADES FIRE, SPECIFICALLY RELATED

TO TEMPORARY USE PERMITS AND SIGN PERMITS
The Planning Commission of the City of Malibu does hereby find, order and resolve as follows:

SECTION 1. Recitals.

A. On January 7, 2025, the Palisades Fire broke out affecting one-third of Malibu geographically and closing Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), a main throughfare, to the general public. PCH remains closed from the eastern City limit to the Carbon Beach area affecting visitors coming from the greater Los Angeles area. The Governor of California has declared the event a State of Emergency and the President of the United States has declared the event a Federal Emergency.

B. In the interest of augmenting the speed and ease with which businesses can recover economically from the impacts of the fire, and with consideration of the number of businesses who will be submitting applications to have events in order to spur economic activity, the current Temporary Use Permit and Sign Permit requirements which can be prohibitive in allowing timely events, amendments to the City's Malibu Municipal Code (MMC) are necessary.

SECTION 2. Initiation.

Pursuant to MMC Chapter 17.74, the City Council hereby initiates amendments to MMC Title 17 (Zoning) to stimulate economic recovery for local businesses as a result of impacts from the 2025 Palisades Fire, specifically related to Temporary Use Permits and Sign Permits.

SECTION 3. Planning Commission Hearing.

The Planning Commission is hereby directed to conduct a duly noticed public hearing in accordance with the provisions of MMC Chapter 17.74. Following the public hearing, the Planning Commission shall recommend to the City Council whether it should approve, modify or deny the proposed amendment. The Planning Commission's recommendation shall be made by resolution carried by the affirmative vote of not less than the majority of the entire Planning Commission.

SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this resolution and enter it into the book of original resolutions.

SECTION 5. The City Council shall certify the adoption of this resolution.
