Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Riggins and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Renée Neermann, Financial Controller
Reviewed by: Richard Rojas, Interim Deputy City Manager Approved by: Candace Bond, Interim City Manager
Date prepared: June 9, 2025 Meeting date: June 17, 2025 Subject: Fiscal Year 2024-25 Third Quarter Financial Report RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive and file the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 Third Quarter Financial Report.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. As of March 31, 2025, the estimated General Fund Unassigned Reserve at June 30, 2025, is $55.87 million.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY: This item is part of the day-to-day operations identified in the Adopted FY 2024-25 Strategic Priority Project List.
DISCUSSION: The attached report provides revenue, expenditure and fund balance totals for the third quarter of FY 2024-25.
The Revenues by Fund Report (pages A 1-5) reflects General Fund revenues received of $34.89 million or 55.2% of the amended budgeted amount for the fiscal year. Total revenue for all funds received through the third quarter is $36.36 million or 41.5% of the amended budgeted amount for the fiscal year. Many revenue sources are received on a quarterly or annual basis creating a lag in receipt, 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. Sales Tax is remitted quarterly to the State and then passed along to the City.

Agenda Item # 1.B.1.
The Expenditure by Fund Report (pages A 6-12) reflects any 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 and Council Appropriations total $17.04 million as of March 31, 2025. General Fund expenditures for the third quarter total $37.28 million or 39.9% of the amended budget. Expenditures for all funds total $51.08 million or 44.0% of the amended budget.
Projected Fund Balances for the fiscal year end are reflected on page A-13. The projected Unassigned Fund Balance at June 30, 2025, includes all expenses appropriated as of March 31, 2025, by the Council. The City ended FY 2023-24 with $63.67 million in the Unassigned General Fund Reserve. As of March 31, 2025, the projected General Fund Unassigned Reserve at June 30, 2025, is $55.87 million. In addition, there is $6.5 million in Contingency that is available at the discretion of the Council.
Third Quarter Budget Amendments
The Revenue and Expenditure amendments for this period are corrections and detailed on pages A-5 and A-9 respectively.
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 regarding 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.

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Riggins and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Renée Neermann, Financial Controller
Reviewed by: Richard Rojas, Interim Deputy City Manager Approved by: Candace Bond, Interim City Manager
Date prepared: June 9, 2025 Meeting date: June 17, 2025 Subject: Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26
RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Conduct the Public Hearing; and 2) Provide direction to staff on the Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26.
FISCAL IMPACT: The Proposed Budget totals $81.8 million in revenue and $110.3 million in expenses and includes General Fund revenue of $60.1 million and General Fund expenditures of $72.3 million.
The overall budget includes nearly $16.79 million in one-time General Fund capital project expenditures from accumulated committed fund balances. This includes $8.40 million in General Fund committed fund balances for capital and $8.39 million for Disaster related capital.
Furthermore, the General Fund Undesignated revenues are $56.69 million. The Undesignated Expenditures are $64.93 million, but there are offsetting operating expenditure transfers-in of $1.18 million, for operating expenditures totaling $63.76 million. The resulting Operating Net Financial Impact is a negative $7.06 million.
At present, the general fund relies on one-time resources to support ongoing expenditures. There is an opportunity to strengthen the long-term sustainability of the general fund with operational improvements, enhancement to revenue generation programs, and reimbursements of one-time disaster related expenses. The ongoing operating expenditures of $62.24 exceed revenues of $56.70 million.

STRATEGIC PRIORITY: This item is part of the day-to-day operations identified in the Adopted FY 2024-25 Strategic Priority Project List.
Background
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget is a preliminary draft for the Council’s consideration. The budget, as always, is a point-in-time projection of what will occur in the upcoming year.
The General Fund projects ongoing expenditures of $64.94 million exceeding ongoing revenues of $56.70 million. Expenditures were offset, pending potential FEMA reimbursement, by utilizing $6.5 million that has been maintained in Fund Balance Designated for Contingencies to fund the disaster response. Should reimbursement be received, the Contingency designation will be replenished. As such, the General Fund Unassigned Reserve at July 1, 2025, is estimated at $58.88 million, and a projected ending balance of $51.82 million at June 30, 2026. The projected ending balance is 79.8% of the FY 2025-26 General Fund Program Expenditures of $64.94 million. This exceeds the City’s goal of maintaining a minimum of 50% of the budgeted expenditures in reserves (Council Policy #3) and exceeds the 65% goal necessary to retain the highest credit rating for the City (per the City’s underwriter). The total projected General Fund balance (including Designated and Undesignated Reserves) at June 30, 2026, is $54.14 million. These reserves are detailed on the Schedule of Fund Balances page of the budget.
The Special Revenue Funds total $15.67 million in revenue and expenditures total $4.65 million.
Transfers of $11.35 million to other funds will leave a projected reserve of $13.45 million at FY 2025-26 year-end.
Revenue to the Legacy Park Project Fund totals $1.69 million and expenditures total $2.14 million, leaving a projected Fund Balance at June 30, 2026, of approximately $382,000.
The totals for all funds are $81.81 million in revenue and $110.30 million in expenditures.
General Fund Revenue
In 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. As is prudent practice, the Proposed Budget includes realistic yet conservative revenue estimates. The City’s major General Fund revenue sources are Property Tax, Transient Occupancy Tax, and Sales and Use Tax.
Agenda Item # 4.C.
• Property Taxes are budgeted at $19.4 million. Initial estimates for a full fiscal year included a $1.12 million loss in property tax revenue in FY 2025-26; however, this impact could be fully backfilled under Assembly Bill 100 for FYs 2024–25 and 2025–26. This action would ensure that the City will not experience a impactful loss in property tax revenue during FY 2025-26. Secured Property Taxes and Property Tax In-Lieu are displaying a growth of
0.5% over the FY 2024-25 Estimated to close amount. Historically, Malibu has averaged over 6.0% growth in property taxes year-over-year for the past 10 years. Staff will monitor this revenue source and will amend revenue at mid-year when it is determined whether Assembly Bill 100 is signed.
• Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) – Hotels and Motels – is budgeted to decline from prior years due to the decline of tourism following the Palisades Fire. The City currently collects TOT from six hotel/motel properties and one RV Park. The City’s TOT rate is 15%. • Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) – Private Rentals - is budgeted at $4.2 million. The decline in revenue from previous years is anticipated because of the Palisades Fire and the loss of 62 Short-Term Rental (STR) properties permitted. Assuming no rebuilding or reactivation of STRs in FY 2025-26.
• Sales and Use Tax – is budgeted at $8.8 million, realizing a minimal loss over FY 2024-25 Amended. Though the City is anticipating a loss of $670,000 in FY 2024-25, we anticipate a recovery in the subsequent year. Sales and Use Tax is supported due to the Transactions and Use Tax (TUT) ½ cent increase approved in November 2022. The proceeds generally exceed original expectations with a FY 2025-26 forecasted amount of $3.9 million.
Special Revenue Funds
The Special Revenue Funds total $15.67 million in revenue. The funds are mostly budgeted to decrease in the next fiscal year. Of the more significant funds, Gas Tax revenue is budgeted at $311,000. Gas Tax revenues are based, in part, on projected fuel costs and sales, and fuels prices are projected to remain near current levels. Traffic Safety revenue is projected next year at $243,000. Proposition A revenue is projected at $313,000, which is a $141,000 decrease over the current year. Proposition C revenue is projected at $247,000, which is a $56,000 decrease over the current year. The City is projected to receive $426,000 from Measure W – the Los Angeles County Safe Clean Water Act. This funding can be used for stormwater-related projects and maintenance. Revenue from the three Landslide Maintenance Districts, the Carbon Beach Undergrounding Community Facilities District, and the Broad Beach Undergrounding Assessment District, are also budgeted in Special Revenue funds. Revenue from the Landslide Maintenance Districts is used for operations and maintenance. Revenue from the other special districts is used to pay debt service and associated administrative costs.
The Special Revenue Fund also includes a projected $2.92 million for Phase Two of the Civic Center Water Treatment Facility. Staff are still working through issues that have put the project on pause but anticipate that it will pick up in FY 2025-26.
Agenda Item # 4.C.
Legacy Park Project Fund
The Legacy Park Project Fund reflects revenues and expenditures associated with the City’s three commercial properties, Legacy Park, and clean water projects. The Proposed Budget includes $1.6 million of base rental income from three commercial properties. Revenue is used for debt service associated with the Legacy Park acquisition, operations and maintenance of Legacy Park, and other high priority clean water expenses.
Expenditures
The FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget is $110.30 million for All Funds, this is an decrease of $9.00 million from the Current FY 2024-25 Amended Budget primarily due to reductions in General Fund capital expenditures.
Internal Service Fund allocations for Information Technology (IT) and Vehicles are assigned by department. The Proposed Budget includes an IT allocation of all overhead costs per FTE in each Department, resulting in $14,858 per user. The Fleet charges are based on an estimate of about $144,000 in costs for 24 vehicles, or $6,000 per assigned vehicle.
The City’s CalPERS contribution rate for FY 2025-26 will be 20.38% of payroll for Classic Employees (hired prior to 2013) and 8.27% of payroll for Public Employee’s Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) Employees (hired after 2013). In FY 2024-25, the City’s contribution rate for Classic Employees was 20.31% and 8.18% for PEPRA Employees. Currently the Proposed Budget includes approximately 29 Classic Employees and 90 PEPRA Employees. Part-Time Employees and Interns do not participate in CalPERS.
The City is also responsible for Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB), which includes retiree health insurance. In 2009, the City began contributing to a Prefunding Program through CalPERS to address the City’s unfunded OPEB liability.
Disaster Impact
While the impacts of the 2018 Woolsey Fire are winding down, expenditures have been added to the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget to address the ongoing operational costs spanning multiple departments to address recovery and rebuilding efforts because of the Franklin and Palisades Fires. The budget includes $10.07 million in expenditures for all rebuild expenses.
There is also an additional $8.40 million proposed in disaster Capital Improvement Projects.
The allocation includes a request of $1.1 million to hire specialized technical advisors to support technology updates, administrative policy updates, and strategic resiliency plans. These advisors will bring critical expertise in areas such as digital transformation, infrastructure finance, economic development and process optimization, ensuring that modernization efforts are evidence-based, efficient, and aligned with best practices. Their guidance will be essential to designing actionable plans, identifying cost-effective improvements, and accelerating implementation timelines while minimizing risk. This investment will directly contribute to long-term operational efficiency, service quality, and organizational excellence. An increase of $220,000 is also included for the potential need to lease additional office space.
Agenda Item # 4.C.
The City received a $13.6 million settlement for the Woolsey Fire from Southern California Edison (SCE) and $4.2 million in escrow settlement funds, a total of $17.8 million. The settlement funds have a projected remaining balance at June 30, 2026, of $1.8 million.
A large share of the disaster capital expenses are anticipated to be covered by FEMA, CalOES and the City’s insurance policy with CAJPIA. In past disasters, these agencies have taken years to reimburse the City for these costs. To date, the City has received $6.2 million in reimbursements. The disaster-related projects for FY 2025-26 include:
Project Name FY 2025-26 Proposed
Clover Heights Storm Drain Improvements (2019 Storm) $2,000,000 Latigo Canyon Road and Retaining Wall (Woolsey) 2,500,000 Westward Beach Shoulder Repairs (2019 Storm) 700,000
Big Rock Drainage Infrastructure (Palisades) 1,192,271
Las Flores Park Repairs (Palisades) 2,000,000
Total $ 8,392,271
Department Overviews
All departments have Salary and Benefit (S&B) increases of 3.1% for Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA). Some vacancies are budgeted at half a year to estimate that positions take time to fill, and other vacancies will occur throughout the year.
Management and Administration
In FY 2025-26, the Management and Administration Department budget recognized an overall increase of $2.6 million. Though some divisions are proposing reductions to the budget, some of the notable drivers of the increase are as follows:
• City Manager: The budget is increasing by about $669,000, which includes the addition of 2 full-time equivalent positions that were included in the FY 2024-25 Mid-Year budget amendments.
• Legal Counsel: The Legal Counsel proposed budget includes an increase of $280,000 for anticipated costs related to School District Separation legal services, litigation and criminal prosecution expenses.
• Non-Departmental: The budget presents an increase of $555,000. This amount includes an increase in estimated insurance premiums ($182,000), an increase to the Joint Use Agreement with the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District ($80,000), and increased contributions to the City’s OPEB, CalPERS Liabilities, and retiree health premiums ($229,000).
• Information Systems: Additional funding of about $600,000 includes software and equipment which will be used to complete ongoing projects and to establish necessary resources for initiating new projects that align with City goals. Projects include increased cyber security measures, information storage upgrades, and security camera upgrades at City Hall, the Rebuild Center, and Malibu Bluffs Park. The Proposed Budget also includes funding for a systems engineer to assist with these projects.
Agenda Item # 4.C.
• City Hall Operations: The Proposed Budget includes an increase of $96,500 for necessary leasehold improvements that include replacing the carpet, painting, HVAC maintenance, and general repairs.
City Clerk
The City Clerk Department is displaying an increase of nearly $108,000, due to the addition of a full-time Administrative Assistant position, which was added as a FY 2024-25 mid-year budget amendment and other less significant changes to the operating budget.
Public Safety
The Public Safety Department budget remains steady with only a $118,000 increase resulting primarily from a $100,000 increase to the CHP On-Call Services budget and a $290,000 increase for LA County Sheriff’s services. Other operating expenses were reduced, keeping the Public Safety proposed budget mostly level.
Community Services
The Community Services budget will experience an overall increase of $390,000, across all Divisions. This is primarily due to signing a new agreement with a Dial-a-Ride provider under the Transportation Services budget, $296,000 which is offset by Proposition A revenue; however, also includes a $40,000 General Fund allocation.
Community Development Department
For the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget, the Environmental Sustainability and Planning Departments remain independently referenced and budget variances are discussed below.
However, if approved by the City Council, these Departments will be merged as was recommended and outlined in the Development Services Review study (Study) conducted by Baker Tilly and reported to Council, Item 6A, on August 28, 2023 (see that report for more detail).
The department restructuring is designed to increase efficiency, improve service delivery, and create a more streamlined development process for rebuilding in Malibu. In addition, the new Department brings together six key critical divisions — Planning, Long-Range Planning, Building and Safety, Code Enforcement, Environmental Programs, and Administration — under one roof, creating a centralized resource for permitting, development, and environmental compliance.

The creation of the Department began with hiring a Community Development Director to help lead the initiation and build out the organization. This position is included in the Proposed Budget in the Planning Division. In addition, the City Manager will be reviewing the suggested organizational structure and will analyze the positions needed within the City’s Salary Schedule. The main changes will be at the leadership levels, while existing staff positions and functions should remain relatively the same under revised functional groups and divisions.
Additionally, the FY 2025-26 Proposed Budget includes the creation of a Deputy Community Development Director position. Staff recommends that the City Council approve this position within the newly established Community Development Department to provide:
• Focused Leadership and Oversight
o The Deputy Director will provide day-to-day leadership and oversight of essential environmental programs including the City’s Clean Water Program, Solid Waste. o The position will serve as the lead administrator for managing interdepartmental coordination and compliance with state and federal mandates • Operational Support
o It will support administrative functions such as contract management, performance reporting, compliance reporting, grant administration, and budget for the Community Development Department
• Community and Regulatory Engagement
o The Deputy Director will represent the Department in public meetings, regional agency collaborations and with stakeholders on environmental matters of local concern, including water quality protection and solid waste reduction. o Provides leadership in responding to community needs regarding environmental compliance.
The addition of a Deputy Community Development Director will strengthen the management capacity of the City’s newly formed Community Development Department. It will ensure a consistent, proactive approach to environmental programs, regulatory compliance, and public service delivery. The position aligns with Malibu’s vision of maintaining a healthy, sustainable, and resilient community. A proposed job description is included with this report as Attachment 2.
Environmental Sustainability
The Environmental Sustainability programs increase by $904,000, across all divisions. The increase is driven primarily by the necessity for professional services for Exterior Elevated Elements (E3) program costs, which should be fully offset by the accompanying related fees, and consultants to support the heavy workload of staff as the City responds to disaster recovery and rebuild efforts.
Planning and Code Enforcement
The Planning programs budget requests a $223,500 increase for the next fiscal year. The Department continues to balance the need for consultants while focusing on filling vacancies. The FY 2022-23 Budget incorporated departmental reorganization and strategy to enhance capacity and improve customer service by aligning staffing investments with workload demands. As of FY 2024-25, seven positions were added to the Department. In FY 2025-26, staff is requesting three
Agenda Item # 4.C.
new full-time positions, one in Planning and one in Code Enforcement, and one new full-time position that will be assigned to the Rebuild Center (these positions are included in the Community Development organization chart above). Additionally, one temporary administrative employee is requested for a short-term to assist with rebuild efforts. The goal is to slowly reduce the dependence on consultant support to a normalized level.
Public Works
The budget for the Public Works Department has a net decrease of $819,000, overall. The decreases are driven by Street Maintenance, -$609,000; and Fleet Operations, -$306,000, simply from purchasing fewer vehicles in the upcoming fiscal year, and general reductions in projects needing professional services. The Engineering budget has increased overall by $27,000 and includes one full-time Management Analyst position, yet also recognizes decreases in other operating expenses.
Capital Projects
The Proposed Budget for FY 2025-26 includes a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) that intends to address as many projects as possible. The CIP budget totals $18.55 million for FY 2025-26. Note that staff are still reviewing the CIP needs for the upcoming year so the presentation of projects in this report are not yet firm and are subject to change. It is likely that projects will be added or updated at the FY 2025-26 mid-year budget review. Below is a list of identified projects for the upcoming year:
Project Name FY 2025-26 Proposed
Annual Street Overlay $ 800,000

Total $ 18,554,985
Much of the funding for capital projects comes from outside funding sources and grants.
Funding for the Permanent Skate Park comes from two sources: an OGALS Per Capita Grant of $185,822, a settlement agreement of $150,000, and additional funding from the General Fund Reserve in the amount of $4,717,289. However, should the Council give direction to Staff to pursue fundraising efforts for the new Park, the amount of funds from the GF reserve to the project could be reduced.
Pursuant to the City’s budgeting policies, unspent capital project funds will be rolled over each year until the project is completed.
Of the total $18.6 million of capital expenditures, $10.1 million is being funded from grants/state funds. There are $8.5 million in capital projects being funded from the General Fund.
Personnel
The Proposed Budget provides for 128.58 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions comprised of 113.0 full-time employees, 3.20 permanent part-time employees, and 12.38 FTEs working as part-time employees (See Appendices “Proposed Authorized Positions” page 150). The FTE count does not include the 5.00 City Councilmembers.
The City typically provides an annual Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) to employees. The adjustment is derived from the Consumer Price Index (CPI) using an annual percentage from February. The percentage change of the CPI in February 2025 was 3.1%. The Proposed Budget for FY 2025-26 includes this COLA. The financial impact of the COLA is approximately $459,000.
Pending review and approval by the City Council, the following positions have been added in the Proposed Budget, as noted in the department discussions, an additional 7.0 FTE as part of the 128.58 FTE total:
• City Manager
o 1.0 Assistant to the City Manager
o 1.0 Deputy City Manager
• Community Development Department
o 1.0 Deputy Community Development Director
o 1.0 Administrative Assistant (Rebuild Center)
o 1.0 Associate Planner
o 1.0 Code Enforcement Officer
Agenda Item # 4.C.
• Public Works
o 1.0 Management Analyst
As discussed in the department overviews, there is one new job description proposed and is included as Attachment 2:
• Deputy Community Development Director
General Fund Grant Applications
The Proposed Budget includes $200,000 for the General Fund Grant program which is consistent with the prior fiscal years. The application deadline for General Fund Grants was April 30, 2025.
The City received 32 grant applications totaling $1,038,745. The A&F Subcommittee reviewed all applications on June 11, 2025, and recommended to the City Council the following General Fund Grant awards:

On March 4, 2020, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency in response to the increased spread of COVID-19. Additionally, on March 4, 2020, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Department of Public Health declared a local and public health emergency in response to increased spread of COVID-19 across the country and in Los Angeles County. The City of Malibu’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) was activated on March 13. On March 16, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 20-14 ratifying the City’s Emergency Services Director's Proclamation of Existence of a Local Emergency issued on March 14, 2020. The President of the United States declared a major disaster for California for the COVID-19 pandemic on March 22, 2020.
Since that time Federal, State and County governments have revised public health regulations in response to evolving epidemiological metrics.
During FY 2022-23, the California and Los Angeles County declarations came to an end. In FY 2023-24, the City reviewed all expenditures related to the pandemic and submitted eligible costs to FEMA for reimbursement. No additional COVID-19 related appropriations will be proposed going forward.

The non-departmental program accounts for the centralization of services provided for the benefit of all departments. These services include fixed asset management; insurance premiums; claims settlements; receptionist services; printing; postage; telephone; and equipment leases. Expenses include retiree health premiums and other post-employment benefit costs.
This program accounts for the expenditures related to the Joint Use Agreement between the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District and the City of Malibu. This agreement provides for the joint operation and maintenance of school district facilities including ball fields, tennis courts and the swimming pool at Malibu High School.
Also included in this program is the risk management function, which maintains responsibility for all the City’s insurance needs, including property, workers’ compensation, fidelity bonds, special events, and auto liability. The goal of the risk management function is to apply loss prevention and control measures through identification and analysis of loss exposure in the areas of liability, workers’ compensation, and property loss. The City is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (“JPIA”), which provides for the pooling of self-insured losses of its member cities.
The budget for non-departmental services also includes funding for the City’s required payments under the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) for retiree health costs and for the City’s CalPERS liability payment. These costs are reviewed every two years as mandated.
In 2009, the City began contributing to a Prefunding Program through CalPERS to address the City’s unfunded Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability.

The Information Systems Technology (IS) division provides support and advisory services for all City automated information and communications systems. The division supports the City’s telephone system as well as the local area network which consists of 19 physical servers, 22 virtual servers and over 275 computers consisting of personal computers, laptops, and virtual machines. The Information Technology Fund primarily derives its revenue from a service charge to each department of overhead costs allocated per person which contributes towards the maintenance and future replacement of equipment.
The City’s systems and operations continue to advance and improve. The strategic initiatives to increase cyber security updates will be ongoing with the goals of efficiency, accessibility, and transparency, and will better protect IT infrastructure from potential disasters and/or cyberattack.
Furthermore, the Division works on projects such, as but not limited to: fixing urgent organizational issues as they are reported; improving the resilience of the network to minimize, if not eliminate, network outages; obsolete equipment replacements; support for digitization of records; and maintaining a staff intranet.
The most significant initiative, a new Land Management System (LMS) or “permitting software” system, is intended to be brought for Council’s consideration and approval with kick-off during the calendar year and will promote government resiliency and improve permit processing timelines.
The FY 2025-26 Budget will continue the aforementioned initiatives as well as further advancing technology including multi-factor authentication and cloud storage. The budget also includes $160,000 for security camera upgrades at Malibu City Hall, the Malibu Rebuild Center, and Malibu Bluffs Park.
To properly staff and support the City’s ongoing and ever-increasing technology requirements, the budget includes recruitment of a full-time Information Systems Administrator and $150,000 in professional services for Systems Engineer services.

COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT
In 2008-2009, the City assisted a group of 21 property owners in the Carbon Beach area with the formation of a Community Facilities District (CFD). The CFD provides a mechanism for the property owners to finance the undergrounding of utilities in the Carbon Beach area along Pacific Coast Highway. Each property within the CFD pays for the undergrounding project via annual assessments levied against the properties through the Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office.
Bonds were sold as a part of the process and all costs of issuing the bonds were paid from proceeds of the bond sale. Funds are administered by US Bank, which acts as the fiscal agent and trustee for the CFD.
The City contracts with a financial services firm to manage the Carbon Beach Undergrounding CFD.

ASSESSMENT DISTRICT
On January 25, 2016, the City of Malibu Assessment District (AD) No. 2015-1 was approved for the Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility. The AD provided a mechanism for property owners in the Civic Center area to finance the design and construction of the Wastewater Treatment Facility. After the approval of the Assessment District, the City was able to secure funding from the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) State Revolving Fund (SRF) program, including a grant of $9.5 million and $50.7 million in low interest loans. Additional bond funding was issued in the amount of $6.2 million to cover costs ineligible under the SRF funding.
Construction of the facility commenced in July 2016. The facility was completed and fully operational in September 2018.
The loan and bonds will be repaid through the AD. Each property within the AD will pay for the project via annual assessments levied against the properties through the Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office. These assessments began in Fiscal Year 2018-19. The City and the County of Los Angeles prepaid the assessments for their existing properties within Phase One. The annual assessments for the vacant properties the City purchased in Fiscal Year 2018-19 are accounted for in Division 9088.
Costs for the operation and maintenance of the facility are included in the current budget in Division 3010.

On November 30, 2016, the City closed escrow on approximately 35 acres of vacant land located at Trancas Canyon Road and Pacific Coast Highway, commonly known as Trancas Field. This $11.4 million acquisition was funded through the issuance of Certificates of Participation (COP) 2016A. The acquisition of the property resolved one of the City’s longest standing legal disputes. The property remains vacant.
On April 23, 2018, the Council authorized a funding plan to purchase three vacant properties totaling 29.24 acres, including 23575 Civic Center Way, which is commonly known as Sycamore Village or the Ioki parcel and consists of 9.65 acres located on the northeast corner of Civic Center Way and Stuart Ranch Road; a 1.11-acre parcel located on the southwest corner of Civic Center Way and Webb Way, and an 18.48-acre parcel located on the south side of Pacific Coast Highway just east of Heathercliff Road.
The properties at 23575 Civic Center Way and southwest corner of Civic Center Way and Webb Way are both part of City of Malibu Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility Assessment District (AD) No. 2015-1 approved on January 25, 2016. The annual assessment for these two parcels is $260,000.
On February 12, 2020, the La Paz property was dedicated to the City. This property is also a part of AD No. 2015-1. The annual assessment for this parcel is $20,000.
The FY 2025-26 Budget also includes funding to perform brush clearance and cover service fees on all vacant parcels.

The City of Malibu has used the issuance of Certificates of Participation (COPs) for a variety of purposes including the acquisition of property and capital improvements. The City used debt to acquire and improve Legacy Park and City Hall. It also used debt to acquire vacant lands including Trancas Field, 23575 Civic Center Way, the parcel located on the southwest corner of Civic Center Way and Webb Way, and the parcel located on the south side of Pacific Coast Highway just east of Heathercliff Road. Rental income from the commercial properties pays for the debt service on Legacy Park. Debt service for City Hall and the vacant lands is paid out of the General Fund. The expenses related to that debt are shown together in one division.
In accordance with the funding plan authorized by City Council on April 23, 2018, the City will be responsible for the annual debt service of $1,217,626 for the vacant lands at 23575 Civic Center Way, the parcel located on the southwest corner of Civic Center Way and Webb Way, and the parcel located on the south side of Pacific Coast Highway just east of Heathercliff Road in FY 2025-26.

AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
The City’s Public Safety Department is comprised of in-house public safety and emergency management programs and contract services, including law enforcement, fire, parking enforcement, animal control, and homeless outreach.
Emergency management programs include maintaining the City’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and alert and warning systems, City EOC team training, staff safety training on emergency protocols, emergency plan development and maintenance, coordinating with outside agencies to develop and improve interagency response procedures, and overseeing the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program. Neighborhood fire safety and preparedness programs include Home Ignition Zone Assessments, coordination and support of Firewise Communities, and CAL FIRE wildfire prevention grant projects.
The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department provides law enforcement services and includes general law, traffic, parking enforcement, administration, summer beach enforcement, and specialized community policing services. Traffic enforcement is supplemented by a contract with the California Highway Patrol. Parking enforcement is supplemented by a contract with a private parking enforcement vendor and a parking citation processing vendor. The Public Safety Department staff and an outside vendor provide the administration of the Speed Safety System (cameras). The Department also provides support to the Sheriff’s Volunteers on Patrol (VOP) program.
The Los Angeles County Fire Department provides fire services including fire emergency response, paramedic services, and fire prevention and inspections. The Malibu residents pay for these services annually through their property tax bills.
The Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control provides animal rescue, licensing, abuse investigation, and adoptions.
The Department also oversees the City’s response to homelessness. Staff manage a contract for homeless outreach services and coordinate with the Sheriff’s Department and other outside agencies to address homeless encampments.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD), included in this budget are based on current year’s costs, plus a growth percentage, representing the contract rate increase. Due to LASD’s ongoing growth moratorium, we do not anticipate being able to fully staff the Malibu Substation this fiscal year.

Program staff oversees the City's sustainability program, which includes outreach, incentives, and events relating to water conservation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, and Dark Sky.
Program staff assists with the City’s participation as a member agency in the Clean Power Alliance. It explores innovative options, such as the Coastal Vulnerability Assessment, to increase environmental sustainability citywide. The program is funded through the General Fund, with revenue support derived from building permits, inspection fees, and grant awards.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT
The Planning Department collaborates with the community to develop comprehensive plans for the future, ensuring these plans align with the community’s vision, and adhere to City regulatory requirements. Team members offer a diverse range of professional advice and services to the public, applicants, external agencies, the Planning Commission, and the City Council. The Planning Department provides comprehensive services in the areas of Current and Long-Range Planning, Biological Services, and Code Enforcement, and a robust public information and records management program. Additionally, the Department monitors projects and activities of other agencies.
Current Planning activities encompass day-to-day receipt of applications for property improvements, remodeling, and/or new development in Malibu. Planning staff reviews these entitlement requests for conformance with the Local Coastal Program (LCP) and Municipal Code and conducts environmental reviews in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Current Planning also includes Biological Services, which encompass the review of project biology reports, landscape plans, and landscape water conservation compliance, liaison support to the Environmental Review Board (ERB) and the oversight Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Areas (ESHA).
The Long Range Planning Division encompasses updates to the City’s General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and LCP in response to Council priorities, regulatory changes, and community needs. Furthermore, the Department prepares special studies and coordinates with other agencies, such as the California Coastal Commission (CCC), California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA), The Department provides liaison support to the Planning Commission, Zoning Ordinance Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee, Subdivision Review Committee, and the City Council, as well as project-specific committees as needed.
The budget also allocates funding for City Council priorities such as implementing the 6th Cycle Housing Element (2021-2029) and related code amendments, integrating state legislative mandates into City codes and the LCP. Additionally, the budget includes funding for contract planners to assist the Department with a backlog of planning applications due to staffing vacancies and complex entitlement processing.
The FY 2022-23 Budget incorporated departmental reorganization and strategy to enhance capacity and improve customer service by aligning staffing investments with workload demands. As of FY 2024-2025, seven positions were added to the Department. In FY 2025-26, staff is requesting three additional positions.

CODE ENFORCEMENT
Code Enforcement is responsible for enforcement of the Malibu Municipal Code, the Local Coastal Program, Building Code, and other State and County laws to promote and protect public health, safety and welfare, and the environment. These duties involve responding to questions on a wide range of code compliance areas from the public and external agencies and conducting formal investigations of complaints. Code Enforcement performs investigations using records, permitting data, and fieldwork. Code Enforcement Officers also work closely with property owners or other responsible parties to determine the most appropriate course of action to resolve issues and provide assistance through the process.
Code Enforcement actively coordinates with other City staff, including Planning, Building & Safety, Geotechnical, Environmental Health, and Public Works, as well as State and County agencies to share information, clarify requirements, and coordinate solutions for code compliance issues. Voluntary compliance is the preferred and most common path. In cases where standard enforcement processes are not successful, Code Enforcement staff work with the City Attorney and the City Prosecutors office on administrative remedies and, when necessary, litigation.
As a result of the Palisades Fire, Code Enforcement has experienced an increase in violations that are either not typical or were previously not a focus. These include illegal dumping, transient activity in burned areas, unpermitted signage, unlicensed contractors, illegal soliciting, and related issues.
The FY 2025–26 Budget includes additional funding to address the rise in complaints and the growing caseload. One full-time Code Enforcement Officer is proposed, allowing the city to divide Malibu into four geographic enforcement zones to improve coverage and response times.
Temporary administrative support is also included to assist with scanning and digitizing historical case files and records, enhancing access and efficiency in case management.

FLEET OPERATIONS
The Fleet Operations program is responsible for the cost-effective repair, preventative maintenance, fueling, and eventual replacement of the City’s vehicle fleet. This program has also implemented clean air programs relative to vehicles to ensure that the City is doing its part to reduce pollution and improve air quality. The City currently maintains an Electric Vehicle Charging Station in the Malibu Civic Center area.
Fleet Operations are accounted for in the Vehicle Fund, which generates revenue by charging each department with maintenance and fuel costs. The City’s fleet of 25 vehicles includes 5 pickup trucks, 16 sport utility vehicles, and 4 sedans. Of these 25 vehicles, 21 operate on gasoline and 4 are hybrids.
Pursuant to the direction of the City Council, new vehicles will be hybrids when feasible. Once the City is able to expand its electric vehicle charging capabilities, older vehicles will be replaced, whenever possible, with electric vehicles.
No new vehicles are anticipated to be purchased during this fiscal year. The City’s fleet will remain at 25 vehicles.

STORMWATER TREATMENT FACILITIES
The Stormwater Treatment Facilities program is responsible for all activities related to the repair and replacement of equipment and the maintenance of these facilities.
In 2007, the City completed the construction of the Civic Center Stormwater Treatment Facility.
This facility was the first major component in the implementation of the Malibu Civic Center Integrated Water Quality Management Plan. The facility is a key element in the Legacy Park stormwater management system and is designed to reduce pollution in Malibu Creek, Malibu Lagoon and Surfrider Beach.
Dry weather and first flush runoff flows are pumped from three major storm drains in the Civic Center area and then they are treated in a 3-step process of screening, filtering and disinfecting at a rate of up to 1,400 gallons per minute. The City reuses the treated water for irrigation of landscaping in the Civic Center area and Legacy Park.
In 2010, the City also constructed the Paradise Cove Stormwater Treatment Facility. This facility is designed to capture, clean and disinfect up to approximately 1,000 gallons per minute of stormwater and urban runoff from Ramirez Creek and the surrounding watershed. The facility has three different filtration systems to efficiently remove trash, sediment and bacteria.
Facility Maintenance activities are funded by the General Fund and the City’s Measure W Los Angeles County Stormwater Annual Allocation.

CIVIC CENTER WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY
In 2011, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Malibu. The MOU was amended in 2014 and again in 2017. The MOU is between the City, the RWQCB, and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). The MOU commits the City to lead the efforts to work with property owners to design and construct a centralized wastewater treatment facility in the Civic Center area. Under the MOU, both commercial and residential property owners in the Civic Center area are required to fund and connect to the centralized wastewater treatment facility in phases.
Phase One was completed in September 2018. Phase Two and Phase Three require connection by November 2024 and November 2028, respectively.
The construction of Phase One was completed in FY 2017-18. A wastewater and recycled water rate study was completed to develop the utility rates in 2017, updated in 2021 and 2024. The City will be assessing the property owners connected to the Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility. The design for Phase Two was initiated in August 2019 and completed in FY 2021-22.
Following the completion of the design, the City began the State Revolving Fund loan process.
During the application review, it became necessary to update the design for Phase Two.
Department 3010 reflects the operation, maintenance and management of the Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility, treatment plant, collection system and the re-use and dispersal facility. Revenue generated from the utility rates will be used to offset these expenses. Also included is water quality testing and monitoring costs and other expenses as required in the MOU.
All operation and maintenance costs associated with the Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility (CCWTF) are paid by revenue generated by the wastewater and recycled water service fees. When the wastewater rates were first developed, they were based on estimated costs for running the facility. After almost three years of operation, it is evident that some costs are higher than originally anticipated. The City is responsible for costs applicable to City-owned properties located within the boundaries of the assessment district and those expenses are included in the annual budget.
The Proposed Budget for FY 2025-26 anticipates approximately $2.2 million in expenditures for the CCWTF. The wastewater and recycled water rates will generate sufficient revenue to cover the operation, maintenance, and management costs.
