Assembly Bill No. 2561
CHAPTER409
An act to add Section 3502.3 to the Government Code, relating to public employment.
[Approved by Governor September 22, 2024. Filed with
Secretary of State September 22, 2024.]
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2561, McKinnor. Local public employees: vacant positions.
Existing law, the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (act), authorizes local public employees, as defined, to form, join, and participate in the activities of employee organizations of their own choosing for the purpose of representation on matters of labor relations. The act requires the governing body of a public agency to meet and confer in good faith regarding wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment with representatives of recognized employee
organizations and to consider fully presentations that are made by the employee organization on behalf of its members before arriving at a determination of policy or course of action.
This bill would, as specified, require a public agency to present the status of vacancies and recruitment and retention efforts at a public hearing at least once per fiscal year, and would entitle the recognized employee organization to present at the hearing. If the number of job vacancies within a single bargaining unit meets or exceeds 20% of the total number of authorized full-time positions, the bill would require the public agency, upon request of the recognized employee organization, to include specified information during the public hearing. By imposing new duties on local public agencies, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would also include related legislative findings.
The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state.
Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions for costs mandated by the state pursuant to this act, but would recognize that a local agency or school district may pursue any available remedies to seek reimbursement for these costs.
92 @
Ch. 409 -2-
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. The Legislature finds and declares as follows:
(a) Job vacancies in local government are a widespread and significant problem for the public sector affecting occupations across wage levels and educational requirements.
(b) High job vacancies impact public service delivery and the workers who are forced to handle heavier workloads, with understaffing leading to burnout and increased turnover that further exacerbate staffing challenges.
(c) There is a statewide interest in ensuring that public agency operations are appropriately staffed and that high vacancy rates do not undermine public employee labor relations.
SEC. 2. Section 3502.3 is added to the Government Code, to read: 3502.3. (a) (1) A public agency shall present the status of vacancies
and recruitment and retention efforts during a public hearing before the governing board at least once per fiscal year.
(2) If the governing board will be adopting an annual or multiyear budget during the fiscal year, the presentation shall be made prior to the adoption of the final budget.
(3) During the hearing, the public agency shall identify any necessary changes to policies, procedures, and recruitment activities that may lead to obstacles in the hiring process. (b) The recognized employee organization for a bargaining unit shall be entitled to make a presentation at the public hearing at which the public agency presents the status of vacancies and recruitment and retention efforts for positions within that bargaining unit. (c) If the number ofjob vacancies within a single bargaining unit meets or exceeds 20 percent of the total number of authorized fulltime positions, the public agency shall, upon request of the recognized employee organization, include all of the following information during the public hearing:
(1) The total number ofjob vacancies within the bargaining unit. (2) The total number of applicants for vacant positions within the bargaining unit.
(3) The average number of days to complete the hiring process from when a position is posted.
(4) Opportunities to improve compensation and other working conditions. (d) This section shall not prevent the governing board from holding additional public hearings about vacancies.
(e) The provisions of this section are severable. If any provision of this section or its application is held invalid, the invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application.
(t) For purposes of this section, "recognized employee
organization" has the same meaning as defined in subdivision (a) of Section 3501.
SEC. 3. The Legislature finds and declares that Section 2 of this act, which adds Section 3502.3 to the Government Code, furthers, within the
92 -3- Ch. 409
meaning of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 ofArticle I of the California Constitution, the purposes of that constitutional section as it relates to the right of public access to the meetings of local public bodies or the writings of local public officials and local agencies. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following findings:
It is in the public interest, and it furthers the purposes of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section (3) ofArticle I of the California Constitution, to ensure that information concerning public agency employment is available to the public.
SEC. 4. No reimbursement shall be made pursuant to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of the Government Code for costs mandated by the state pursuant to this act. It is recognized, however, that a local agency or school district may pursue any remedies to obtain reimbursement available to it under Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) and any other law.

To: Mayor Silverstein and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Brandie Ayala, Interim Public Works Administration Manager Reviewed by: Tatiana Holden, Assistant Public Works Director/City Engineer Christopher Smith, Assistant City Manager
Approved by: Joseph D. Irvin, City Manager
Date prepared: May 18, 2026 Meeting date: June 22, 2026 Subject: Civic Center Water Treatment Facility Annual Wastewater Service Charges
RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Conduct the Public Hearing to receive public testimony and consider all protest concerning the adoption of the Engineer’s Report regarding levy of wastewater service charges through property taxes; and 2) Unless there are protests from majority of the effected property owners, adopt Resolution No. 26-37 approving the Engineer’s Report and collection of wastewater service charges on the Los Angeles County tax rolls for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-27.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. All revenues and expenditures are recorded in Civic Center Water Treatment Facility Fund 515 (CCWTF). The total FY 2026-27 budget for CCWTF is $2,224,100, which is an increase of 4.36% from the previous year’s budget. This year’s budget includes continued operation, maintenance, and management costs. The City is responsible for service charges associated with City-owned properties located within the CCWTF Phase One Assessment District No. 2015-1 (Assessment District) boundaries.
The collected service charges will generate revenue to support the operation and maintenance of the CCWTF, continue to build a reserve, and ensure compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and are summarized below:

STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION: N/A.
DISCUSSION: In October 2018, Phase One of the Civic Center Water Treatment Facility (CCWTF) was completed. Following completion, developed properties within the Phase One service area connected their private wastewater lines to the CCWTF and the City began collecting wastewater and recycled water service charges. Wastewater and recycled water service rates were initially established with the City Council approved rate study dated July 14, 2017, and updated in June 2021 and April 2024 to generate sufficient revenue to offset the CCWTF associated costs.
The 2024 Wastewater and Recycled Water Rate Study included the following budget information:
1. Contract Costs - Actual costs for the operation and maintenance identified in the City’s contract with Integrated Performance Consultants, Inc., who perform the operation and maintenance of CCWTF. Generally, these costs include the actual labor to operate the system. Staff also considered that the maintenance and operation contract must be updated in 2026.
2. Pass-through Costs - Reimbursable expenses by the CCWTF operator and not included in the Contract Costs. These items include chemicals, replacement of equipment, fuel for the backup generators, and the removal and disposal of biosolids.
3. Direct Costs - Additional expenses the City incurs operating, maintaining, and managing the CCWTF including utilities, insurance, operating supplies, and regulatory compliance.
Wastewater Revenue
An analysis of the actual operation, maintenance, reserve amounts, and management costs are required to provide adequate wastewater and recycled water service rates.
These rates are established to offset anticipated expenditures and project reserves. On April 22, 2024, City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-15 establishing the wastewater and recycled water service charges for FYs 2024-2025, 2025-2026, 2026-2027, and 2027- 2028.
The recommended rates were developed using the same cost allocation methodology established when Assessment District 2015-1 was formed in January 2015. By using this approach, each property share is based on the estimated amount and concentration of wastewater generated by that parcel. This ensures that costs are distributed proportionately among properties based on the anticipated use of the CCWTF.
Agenda Item # 5.B.
Additionally, this is the third year that the City will be collecting revenue to include in the reserve amount. The wastewater and recycled water reserve amounts will provide sufficient cash to cover expenditures during short-term cash flow imbalances and account for any unforeseen emergencies or expenditures.
To determine each parcel’s assessment, the assessment district developed an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) as a base unit to which all parcels are compared and service rates are established. An analysis was created to arrive at a standard EDU for wastewater service rate using a similar methodology used in the formation of the CCWTF Phase One Assessment District. Each parcel would pay a monthly service rate based on how many EDUs a parcel flow and strength would be equal to. The following table shows the calculated EDUs for FY 2026-27 in Phase 1:
Wastewater EDUs
FY 2026-27
Projected
Number of Developed EDUs 380.2347
The total annual revenue was calculated by dividing the anticipated expenditures and reserve amounts by the developed EDUs to calculate the monthly cost per EDU (Annual Budget / 380.2347 EDU / 12 months).

Direct Costs
Reserve Amount

228,185
Total 2,452,285
Wastewater Rate ($/EDU) $537.45
The total monthly charge for each parcel is determined by multiplying the EDU rate by the total EDUs for each parcel. Each developed parcel’s monthly service charge is included in Attachment 1.
Proposition 218
In July 2006, the California Supreme Court determined that water and wastewater service charges are property related charges and therefore are subject to Proposition 218 procedural requirements. Proposition 218 procedures require notices to be mailed to each property owner 45 days prior to public hearing on any proposed fee increase. Proposition 218 prohibits the adoption of a fee increase if a majority of property owners protest in
Agenda Item # 5.B.
writing. Under Proposition 218, the fee must not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the property.
The FY 2026-27 wastewater service charges and rate study are posted on the City's website. On May 20, 2026, a detailed letter was sent to all property owners in Phase One advising them of the proposed wastewater and recycled water charges for FY 2026-27 and the availability of the current rate study on the City’s website. (Attachment 2).
Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution No. 26-37 approving the Engineer’s Report and collection of wastewater service charges on the Los Angeles County tax rolls for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-27.

WASTEWATER BILLING
Dear Property Owner,
You are receiving this notification because you are a property owner within Assessment District 2015-1 and are required to pay wastewater services fees for the associated operation, maintenance, and management costs of the Civic Center Water Treatment Facility (CCWTF). On April 22, 2024, the City Council adopted the revised wastewater and recycled water rates. The revised rates can be located on the City’s website at www.malibucity.org/ccwtf.
In order to simplify the wastewater billing, the City has elected to have the wastewater service charges collected on the County property taxes. The wastewater services charges from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 will be added to the property taxes. Please see the attachment for your specific property and amount.
On June 22, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. the City Council will hold a public hearing to adopt a resolution to allow the wastewater services charges to be collected with the property taxes and to hear any objections to this method. Objections can also be mailed to the City Clerk prior to the City Council meeting.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (310) 456-2489, ext. 338.

Trevor Rusin, Interim City Attorney
Date prepared: June 17, 2026 Meeting date: June 22, 2026 Subject: Proposed Wireless Moratorium and Federal/State Law RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive and file this report regarding wireless moratoria and federal and state law relevant to the matter. Per the Council’s direction, a draft urgency ordinance to impose a moratorium on approval of additional use permits, variances, building permits, or any other applicable entitlement for wireless telecommunication facilities has been provided as Attachment 1. Adoption of the ordinance is not recommended so that the City can remain in compliance with federal law and avoid the risk of applications being deemed granted.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION: After the City Attorney reads the title of the ordinance, adopt Urgency Ordinance No. 536U, establishing a 45-day moratorium prohibiting approval of permits for wireless telecommunication facilities, declaring the urgency thereof, and finding the action exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT: This item was funded via regular operations and City Attorney services paid through the General Fund.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY: This item is prepared pursuant to direction from the City Council at the June 8, 2026 meeting to bring back an item to consider a moratorium on wireless telecommunication facility applications within the City of Malibu.
City Council Meeting
06-22-26
Item
5.C.
Agenda Item # 5.C.
DISCUSSION:
On June 8, 2026, City Council directed City staff to return with a report and draft moratorium that would bar wireless facility applications. Attachment 1 contains an urgency ordinance for the proposed moratorium.
However, adoption of the urgency ordinance is not recommended for the reasons discussed below.
1. Federal law prohibits state and local governments from imposing express or de facto moratoria on the deployment of wired and wireline telecommunications facilities. On August 2, 2018, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted a Third Report & Order and Declaratory Ruling (Moratoria Order), that, among other things, prohibited state and local governments from imposing express and de facto moratoria that delay, suspend, or prevent the acceptance, processing, or approval of applications for telecommunications services and their related facilities, determining that moratoria violate Section 253(a) of the Communications Act.1
The FCC defines each moratorium as follows:
• Express moratoria are “…state or local statutes, regulations, or other written legal requirements that expressly, by their very terms, prevent or suspend the acceptance, processing, or approval of applications or permits necessary for deploying telecommunications services and/or facilities.”2 • De facto moratoria are “…state or local actions that are not express moratoria, but that effectively halt or suspend the acceptance, processing, or approval of applications or permits for telecommunications services or facilities in a manner akin to an express moratorium.”3
In August 2020, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the FCC’s Moratoria Order in the City of Portland v. United States.
4 2. Federal “shot clocks” would continue to run during the moratorium, putting the City at risk that wireless applications would be deemed granted.
The FCC has established various “shot clocks” or timelines for the processing and decisions on wireless applications. These “shot clocks” range from 60 days to 150 days.5 The FCC has also determined that state and local moratoria do not toll the “shot clocks” 1 Accelerating Wireline Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers to Infrastructure Investment, Third Report and Order and Declaratory Ruling, WC Docket No. 17-84, WT Docket No. 17-79, 33 FCC Rcd. 7705 (2018) (“Moratorium Order”). 2 Moratoria Order, Para. 145. 3 Moratoria Order, Para. 149. 4 969 F.3d 1020 (9th Cir. 2020). 5 See 47 C.F.R. Sections 1.6001 to 1.6100.
Agenda Item # 5.C.
for state or municipal review of wireless siting applications and that these “shot clocks continue to run” regardless of whether state or local governments purport to impose moratoria that suspend the acceptance or processing of siting applications for some period of time.
6 Further, federal and state law provide applicants with a deemed granted remedy that can be invoked if the locality fails to act within the applicable “shot clock” period.7
3. State law limits the available reasons for adopting moratoria on development permits.
Pursuant to Government Code section 65858, to protect the public safety, health and welfare a City may adopt as an urgency measure an interim ordinance prohibiting any uses that may be in conflict with a contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City is considering or studying, or intends to study within a reasonable time (a moratorium).
State law imposes a number of requirements on the notice, processing, and adoption of changes to a general plan or zoning code. Government Code section 65858 allows City’s to temporarily prohibit a use without going through this process by implementing a moratorium. The moratorium can only be imposed if it is needed to protect the public safety, health and welfare while the City is considering or studying changes to its general plan, a specific plan or zoning proposal that would conflict with the current allowed use.
While the Council provided direction that it was considering changes to Malibu Municipal Code Chapter 17.46 (Wireless Communications Facilities) and may consider additional changes in light of recent developments related to wireless facilities at the June 8 meeting, it did not specify reasons why a moratorium would be needed to protect the public safety, health and welfare while it is studying/considering changes to the wireless ordinance. Staff has included draft findings in the attached ordinance, but the Council must make these findings (or others) and explain the need for the moratorium should it choose to adopt the proposed urgency ordinance/moratorium.
A moratorium must be adopted by a four-fifths vote of the City Council, and if adopted it would be effective for 45 days. The moratorium could be extended for an additional 10 months and 15 days after a future public hearing and additional four-fifths vote. A second extension could extend the moratorium for an additional year after a similar process. No more than two extensions may be adopted.
Conclusion
Because the City’s proposed moratorium would directly conflict with the FCC’s Moratoria Order and would put the City at risk of deemed granted approvals, it is recommended that the City refrain from moving forward with adopting the urgency ordinance in Attachment 6 Moratoria Order, Para. 165, FN 606. 7 See 47 C.F.R. Section 1.6100(c)(4); Cal. Gov. Code Section 65964.1. The only exception where a deemed granted remedy is not available is for a collocation or siting application for a wireless telecommunications facility where the project is proposed for placement on fire department facilities.
Agenda Item # 5.C.
1, or any proposed moratorium, to avoid falling out of compliance with federal and state law, related likely industry legal challenges and claims, and making the City susceptible to wireless facilities becoming “deemed granted” without City review and conditions.

ORDINANCE NO. 536U
AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF MALIBU PURSUANT TO
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65858 ESTABLISHING A 45-DAY MORATORIUM PROHIBITING APPROVAL OF PERMITS FOR
WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATION FACILITIES, DECLARING THE
URGENCY THEREOF, AND FINDING THE ACTION EXEMPT FROM CEQA The City Council of the City of Malibu does find and ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Moratorium Established.
A 45-day moratorium is hereby enacted (1) prohibiting the approval of additional use permits, variances, building permits, or any other applicable entitlement for wireless telecommunication facilities required in order to comply with Chapter 17.46, and (2) suspending the exemption in Chapter 17.46 for wireless communication facilities in the public right-of-way and barring the related approval of permits variances, building permits, or any other applicable entitlement for wireless telecommunication facilities required in order to comply with Chapter 12.02.
Notwithstanding any provision of the Malibu Municipal Code (MMC), no application for a use permit, variance, building permit, or any other applicable entitlements required for a wireless telecommunication facility will be approved by the City during the pendency of this ordinance or any extension thereof.
SECTION 2. Findings.
The City Council finds that there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare from wireless telecommunications facilities, and that the approval of additional use permits, variances, building permits, or any other applicable entitlement for wireless telecommunications facilities which is required in order to comply with Chapter 17.46 and Chapter
12.02 would result in that threat to public health, safety, or welfare, based on the following facts:
• The City of Malibu is within a very high fire hazard severity zone (VHFHSZ) as identified by the California State Fire Marshal.
• The City recently lost over 700 structures in the 2025 Palisades Fire and one third of the City was affected geographically. Coupled with the impacts from the 2018 Woolsey Fire, just 8 years before, two thirds of the City has been impacted geographically within the decade.
• The 2018 Woolsey Fire was confirmed to be caused by electrical utility lines similar to wireless telecommunication facilities. Previously, after the 2007 Malibu Canyon Fire, NextG (an installer/operator of wireless facilities) was ordered by the CPUC to pay fines for overloading poles that contributed to the fire.
Ordinance No. 536U
____________________
• In February and March 2026, 24 wireless telecommunication facility applications for upgrades to existing sites were approved by the City. Eleven of the Wireless Right-of-Way Permits and one Wireless Permit were appealed by concerned residents, citing, among other grounds, concerns about fire safety related to the upgrades. • On June 8, 2026, the City Council, concerned with fire safety related to wireless telecommunications facilities and upgrades being in a VHFHSZ directed staff to come back with an moratorium to temporarily stop further wireless telecommunication facilities uses.
Due to the potential for wireless telecommunication facilities to contribute to dangerous fire conditions and the City being within a VHFHSZ, the City Council hereby finds that an emergency exists and immediate action must be taken to avoid a threat to the public health, safety and welfare.
This moratorium is necessary while the City considers changes to Malibu Municipal Code Chapter
17.46 (Wireless Communications Facilities) as directed at the June 8, 2026, City Council meeting, and is considering additional changes in light of recent developments related to wireless facilities.
SECTION 3. Penalties.
Violation of any provision of this Ordinance shall constitute a misdemeanor and shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed $1,000 per day that the violation exists. Each and every day such a violation exists shall constitute a separate and distinct violation of this Ordinance. In addition to the foregoing, any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a public nuisance and shall be subject to abatement as provided by all applicable provisions of law.
SECTION 4. Environmental Review.
Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15308, actions can be taken by regulatory agencies, as authorized by local ordinance, to assure the protection of the environment where the regulatory process involves procedures for protection of the environment.
Due to the immediate threat that wireless telecommunication facilities pose on the environment described herein, the City Council hereby finds that CEQA is categorically exempt pursuant to this section in order to protect the environment.
Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The City Council determined that there is no possibility the ordinance will have a significant effect on the environment and accordingly, the exemption set forth in Section 15061(b)(3) applies.
SECTION 5. Urgency Finding.
The City Council finds and declares that the adoption of this Urgency Ordinance is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, and safety. The 2025 Palisades Fire, Ordinance No. 536U
____________________
2024 Franklin Fire and 2024 Broad Fire destroyed hundreds of properties causing a declaration of emergency from the President of the United States as well as the Governor of California and the Mayor of Malibu. The City, being within a VHFHSZ as identified by the California State Fire Marshal, has determined that wireless facilities exacerbate fire hazards. The City suffered from the 2025 Palisades Fire and the 2018 Woolsey Fire, whereabouts 2/3rds of the City has been impacted geographically within the decade. The 2018 Woolsey Fire was confirmed to be caused by electrical utility lines similar to wireless telecommunication facilities. The Council therefore finds and determines that the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety requires that this Ordinance be enacted as an urgency ordinance pursuant to Government Code Sections 36937 and 65858 and take effect immediately upon adoption by four-fifths of the City Council.
SECTION 6. Effective Date.
This Ordinance shall be effective immediately upon its adoption by four-fifths of the City Council on June 22, 2026.
SECTION 7. Severability.
Should any section, subsection, clause, or provision of this Ordinance for any reason be held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity or constitutionality or the remaining portions of this Ordinance; it being hereby expressly declared and this Ordinance, and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, and phrase hereof would have been prepared, proposed, approved, and ratified irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phases be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 8. Conflicting Laws
For the term of this Ordinance, or any extension thereof, the provisions of this Ordinance shall govern over any conflicting provisions of any other City code, ordinance, resolution or policy.
SECTION 9. Certification.
The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance.
PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED this 22nd day of June 2026. _____________________________

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Silverstein and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Rob DuBoux, Assistant City Manager
Approved by: Joseph D. Irvin, City Manager
Date prepared: June 3, 2026 Meeting date: June 22, 2026 Subject: Malibu Disaster Recovery District
RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Adopt Resolution No. 26- 38, declaring the City’s intention to establish the Malibu Disaster Recovery District (MDRD) and establishing the MDRD governing Public Financing Authority (PFA); and 2) Appoint two members and one alternative member from the City Council to the PFA and discuss the approach for appointing one or two members of the public to the PFA.
FISCAL IMPACT: No additional appropriation is required for adoption of the Resolution of Intention or establishment of the MDRD governing Public Financing Authority. If ultimately formed, the MDRD would create the opportunity to utilize property tax increment financing to fund targeted recovery, infrastructure, and resilience investments within the eastern portion of the City, potentially including allocation of property tax increment from the County of Los Angeles if the County elects to participate. Further fiscal analysis will be prepared as part of the Infrastructure Financing Plan, including projected tax increment revenues, potential bonding capacity, administrative costs, grant and other funding opportunities, and the potential impact of allocating a portion of future City property tax increment to the MDRD rather than to the City’s General Fund. The Infrastructure Financing Plan will be presented to the Public Financing Authority for future public review and consideration.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION: This item supports the City’s 2025-2028 Strategic Plan Goal 2: Drive Economic Recovery and Restore Lost Revenue and Strategic Plan Goal 3: Advance Infrastructure Resilience
Goal 2: Drive Economic Recovery and Restore Lost Revenue Objective 2.1: Recover lost sales, hotel, and transaction tax revenue to pre-disaster levels to restore the City’s ability to deliver high quality services.

Item
7.A.
Agenda Item # 7.A.
Strategy: The MDRD would support economic recovery by creating a financing structure tied to rebuilding and reinvestment within the disaster-impacted area and by positioning the MDRD to pursue grants, bonds, and other outside funding sources for recovery and infrastructure projects.
Goal 3: Advance Infrastructure Resilience
Objective 3.1: Develop and fund a comprehensive Infrastructure Resilience Plan Emergency Evacuation: Increase alert warning, and evacuation capabilities.
Strategy: The proposed MDRD would create a potential long-term financing mechanism to support eligible infrastructure and resilience projects in the disaster-impacted area, including projects related to coastal wastewater infrastructure, water storage and fire flow, coastal resilience, emergency power, telecommunications reliability, and other recoveryrelated infrastructure improvements.
DISCUSSION: On January 7, 2025, a fire broke out in Pacific Palisades, north of Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) in between Temescal Canyon Road and Palisades Drive. The fire spread west, affecting areas within the jurisdiction of City of Los Angeles, County of Los Angeles, and the City of Malibu. The fire combined with a historic Santa Ana Wind event and power outages. On January 8, 2025, the Acting Director of Emergency Services (Acting City Manager) proclaimed the existence of a local emergency. The City Council ratified the proclamation at the January 15, 2025, City Council meeting.
On January 7, 2025, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency. This proclamation covered Los Angeles and Ventura counties due to the impacts of Palisades Fire and associated windstorm conditions. The declaration ordered all relevant state agencies and personnel to assist with the emergency response and recover efforts. On January 8, 2025, a Federal Disaster Declaration was made.
The Palisades Fire resulted in significant impacts to the eastern portion of Malibu, resulting in substantial rebuilding efforts, infrastructure restoration, and long-term economic recovery needs. In addition, the affected area will require continued investment in public infrastructure, public safety, coastal resilience, and other improvements that support recovery and reduce the risk of future disasters. A Disaster Recovery District (DRD) provides a potential financing strategy to dedicate future property tax increment generated from rebuilding and reinvestment within the disaster-impacted area to be used towards eligible infrastructure, resilience, and recovery projects. This type of financial plan provides a method of achieving the City’s Strategic Plan Goal 2: Drive Economic Recovery and Restore Lost Revenue and Goal 3: Advance Infrastructure Resilience.
Disaster Recovery District
A DRD is a public financing district formed for the purpose of supporting recovery and rebuilding in an area substantially impacted by a declared disaster. The DRD does not itself rebuild private properties or replace the City’s existing land use, permitting, public
Agenda Item # 7.A.
works, or emergency management responsibilities. Rather, it creates a dedicated financing structure and public sector operating entity (DRD Public Financing Authority) through which eligible revenues generated within the disaster-impacted area can be reinvested into projects that support recovery, restore or replace damaged improvements, strengthen infrastructure, and reduce the risk of future disasters.
The proposed MDRD would be focused on the eastern portion of the City within the Palisades Fire perimeter. This area experienced significant damage and will require continued rebuilding, infrastructure restoration, and long-term resilience investments. The revenues generated by the district are restricted to eligible disaster recovery purposes.
Eligible project categories within a DRD may include infrastructure restoration, utility improvements, transportation and evacuation-related improvements, water quality protection, coastal resilience, emergency communications, and other public improvements. These projects support the safe and timely recovery of the affected area. as well supporting economic recovery from a disaster
If formed, the MDRD would have a 50-year term and be governed by a Public Financing Authority comprised of City Council members and public members, consistent with applicable law. If the County consents to partnership with the City in the MDRD, a County Supervisor would also become part of the governing Public Financing Authority. The Public Financing Authority would be responsible for considering the Infrastructure Financing Plan, overseeing district revenues, approving eligible district expenditures, and carrying out the public financing functions of the district. The Infrastructure Financing Plan would serve as the primary planning and financing document for the MDRD and would identify the district boundary, eligible project categories, proposed revenue sources, projected revenues, and other required information.
If formed, the MDRD and its Public Financing Authority would be subject to the Brown Act, California Public Records Act, Political Reform Act, and applicable DRD noticing requirements. This includes publicly noticed meetings.
The action before the City Council is limited to consideration of a Resolution of Intention.
The Resolution of Intention does not approve specific projects, issue bonds, or finally commit the City to a specific tax increment allocation. Instead, it initiates the MDRD formation process, identifies proposed boundaries and eligible project categories, establishes the Public Financing Authority, and directs preparation of the Infrastructure Financing Plan for future consideration.
Financing the Malibu Disaster Recovery District
By capturing future property tax increment revenue generated within the MDRD as rebuilding occurs, the MDRD would create a sustainable, ongoing revenue stream dedicated to eligible recovery, infrastructure, and resilience projects. This financing mechanism would not increase taxes for property owners within the MDRD boundaries.
Agenda Item # 7.A.
Instead, it would allow a portion of future property tax growth generated by rebuilding and reinvestment within the disaster-impacted area to be reinvested back into that area.
The following exhibit illustrates how tax increment financing may operate in a post-disaster rebuild context. After district formation, the post-fire assessed value within the DRD becomes the baseline value. Property tax revenues generated from that baseline value continue to be distributed to the City, County, and other taxing entities in the same manner as before. As properties are rebuilt and new investment occurs, increases in assessed value above that baseline may generate future tax increment revenue that can be allocated to the DRD for eligible recovery, infrastructure, and resilience projects. The exhibit is illustrative only and does not represent a guaranteed revenue projection.
The MDRD would not receive all increased property tax revenues generated within the district. Rather, it would receive only the portion of incremental property tax revenue approved by the City and any other participating affected taxing entities.
Based on Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller data, the City’s average share of the property tax revenue allocated within the proposed MDRD boundary is approximately
7.0%, and the City also receives the equivalent of approximately 1.2% in property tax in lieu of motor vehicle license fees, for a combined City-related share of approximately
8.2%, or about 8.2 cents of each property tax dollar analyzed for the proposed MDRD area.
By comparison, the County General Fund share averages approximately 25.0%, or about 25 cents of each property tax dollar analyzed within the proposed MDRD boundary. The
Agenda Item # 7.A.
County’s share would not be available to the MDRD unless the County elects to participate and agrees to allocate a portion of its future property tax increment to the district. Because the County’s share is larger than the City’s share, County participation would significantly increase the revenue available for eligible recovery and infrastructure projects.
The Resolution of Intention anticipates that up to 75% of the City’s future property tax increment revenue generated within the MDRD may be allocated to the district (no portion of the existing property tax from within this area). The exact allocation amount would be identified in the Infrastructure Financing Plan and considered at a future duly noticed public meeting. If the County of Los Angeles elects to participate in the MDRD, a portion of the County’s incremental property tax revenue could also be allocated to the district, further increasing the amount of funding available for eligible recovery and infrastructure projects.
The proposed DRD boundary includes parcels located within the Palisades Fire perimeter in the eastern portion of the City. Approximately 1,412 properties are located within the proposed boundary, of which more than 50% experienced significant damage or destruction of existing structures. Based on data from the Los Angeles County AuditorController, the assessed value within the proposed MDRD boundary declined from approximately $4.29 billion before the fire to approximately $3.31 billion after the fire, a reduction of approximately $990 million, or 23%. As rebuilding occurs and assessed values recover, the MDRD would allow a portion of that future revenue growth to be dedicated to public improvements and recovery projects within the disaster-impacted area.
The City’s consultant, Kosmont Companies, prepared preliminary revenue and bonding capacity estimates for the proposed MDRD. Depending on the pace of rebuilding and the level of City and County participation, the consultant estimates 50-year present-value revenue capacity over the life of the district as:
Contribution Model City GF
Contribution
County
Contribution
Total
Revenue
City 50%/County 16% $37,724,763 $45,009,223 $82,733,986 City 75%/County 25% $55,729,015 $69,260,421 $124,989,436 These estimates are determined by modeling a 10-year recovery of property value within the district area followed by 2% tax growth for the remainder of the life of the district. These estimates are preliminary and depend on several factors, including the final MDRD boundary, assessed value recovery, the City’s final tax increment allocation, County participation, interest rates, bond market conditions, and the timing of any bond issuance(s).
As the Council evaluates the creation of the MDRD, it is important Council consider the impacts to the City’s General Fund by diverting a subset of new property tax revenue to
Agenda Item # 7.A.
the district as property taxes are the foundational revenue stream for the City’s General Fund budget. Staff would also need to evaluate if any debt service would require General Fund contributions in the near-term if Council wished to fast-track projects before district revenue was realized.
Should the district be formed, the MDRD may use tax increment revenues on a pay-asyou-go basis as revenues are received, or it may issue bonds backed by future tax increment revenues if sufficient revenue is projected and legally pledged. Bonding could provide earlier funding for eligible projects, but the amount of bond proceeds would be based on projected annual revenues available for debt service, required debt service coverage, reserve requirements, interest rates, issuance costs, and investor acceptance of the revenue forecast. The consultant’s preliminary bonding scenarios assume a first bond issuance in the fifth year of revenue following district formation.
In addition to tax increment revenues, the MDRD may apply for and receive grants, loans, contributions, and other funds from state, federal, local, philanthropic, and private sources.
These funds may be used for eligible projects and, where allowed by the funding source, for related planning, administrative, or implementation expenses. Potential funding sources may include California Proposition 4 grants, State Water Board infrastructure funding programs, Caltrans transportation grants, federal infrastructure grants, and other public funding sources. While these sources are not guaranteed, the MDRD may strengthen the City’s ability to compete for outside funding by demonstrating a coordinated recovery strategy, an adopted financing plan, and a local revenue source that could potentially be used as matching funds.
Accordingly, the proposed MDRD should be understood as a long-term financing tool rather than an immediate source of unrestricted funding. The amount and timing of available funding will depend on the pace of rebuilding, the amount of tax increment allocated by the City and any participating taxing entities, the availability of grants and other outside funding, and the feasibility of issuing bonds or using other financing tools.
Potential Projects
Eligible MDRD projects may include improvements that repair, restore, rehabilitate, or replace facilities, structures, utilities, infrastructure, or other improvements damaged or affected by the disaster. Eligible projects may also include improvements that reduce the risk of future disasters, support emergency access and communications, improve water and energy reliability, harden or underground utilities, and support residential, commercial, and economic recovery.
Potential projects could include:
· PCH Wastewater
· Telecommunication Undergrounding
· PCH Safety Improvement Projects
Agenda Item # 7.A.
· Street and roadway restoration
· PCH Shoreline Protection and Coastal Resilience Project · Water Storage Tank and Pipeline Project
· Flood control, stormwater, and debris-flow mitigation · Fiber optic and emergency communications infrastructure · Fire break and vegetation management improvements
· Emergency power and community resilience facilities
· Other eligible projects identified in the Infrastructure Financing Plan At this stage, the City is not approving specific projects or committing funding to any individual improvement. Project priorities, cost estimates, funding sources, and implementation responsibilities would be evaluated as part of the Infrastructure Financing Plan and subsequent MDRD actions. Many projects may also require separate environmental review, permitting, interagency agreements, design approvals, construction contracts, and City Council or other agency approvals before implementation.
The Infrastructure Financing Plan and any subsequent MDRD formation actions would be considered at a future public meeting, providing an additional opportunity for public review and consideration of proposed project categories, revenue sources, and implementation priorities.
Resolution of Intention and Next Steps
Procedurally, the next step in the MDRD formation process is City Council consideration of a Resolution of Intention. Adoption of the Resolution of Intention does not complete formation of the MDRD, approve the Infrastructure Financing Plan, authorize bonds, or approve specific projects. Rather, it initiates the statutory formation process, establishes the proposed framework for the MDRD, and directs preparation of the Infrastructure Financing Plan for future consideration.
Adoption of the City Council’s Resolution of Intention would provide for the following:
1. Proposed MDRD Boundaries.
The proposed MDRD would be focused on the eastern portion of the City within the January 2025 Palisades Fire perimeter, as shown in Exhibit A to the Resolution of Intention. This boundary is intended to focus the DRD on the disaster-impacted area and support use of the DRD statute pursuant to Government Code Section 62313(a)(1)(A).
2. Eligible Projects and Activities.
The Resolution of Intention broadly identifies the types of eligible projects and activities that may be financed or assisted by the MDRD. These include projects that repair, restore, rehabilitate, or replace buildings, housing, facilities, structures, utilities, infrastructure, or other improvements damaged or affected by the disaster
Agenda Item # 7.A.
as described in Government Code Section 62313(f)(3). Eligible projects may also include improvements that mitigate the risk of future disasters, improve water and energy resource access during emergencies, underground or harden utilities, and support residential, commercial, and economic recovery from the disaster.
3. Use of Incremental Tax Revenue.
The Resolution of Intention anticipates that a portion (no more than 75%) of the City’s future property tax increment revenue generated within the MDRD will be allocated to the MDRD. The Infrastructure Financing Plan (IFP) for the MDRD will specify the exact amounts which will be considered in a future City Council meeting.
It is possible that the County of Los Angeles may participate in the MDRD, in which case, a portion of the County’s property tax increment revenue will also be allocated to the MDRD.
4. Establishment of the Public Financing Authority
The Resolution of Intention establishes a Public Financing Authority (PFA) to serve as the governing board of the MDRD. Consistent with the State regulations, the PFA membership is proposed to be initially comprised of three members of the City Council and two members of the public appointed by the City Council. If another taxing entity, such as the County of Los Angeles, ultimately elects to partner with the City in the MDRD, then the PFA would be revised in accordance with State regulations, such as to include two members of the City Council, one member of that taxing entity’s legislative body (e.g., County Supervisor), one member of the public appointed by the City Council, and one member of the public appointed by the legislative of that taxing entity (e.g., County Board of Supervisors).
5. Future Public Meeting on the Infrastructure Financing Plan.
The Resolution of Intention sets the time and place for a future public meeting on the MDRD Infrastructure Financing Plan to be conducted by the Public Financing Authority. The public meeting is tentatively scheduled for September 14, 2026.
Approval of the Resolution of Intention and appointment of the Public Financing Authority members would begin a series of activities that are expected to occur over the next several months. The following schedule outlines the key tasks and anticipated milestones in the formation process. Final formation actions are anticipated to occur within calendar year 2026.
Task Target Date
Discussions with the County of Los Angeles to consider
partnership in the MDRD

October 2026
The Infrastructure Financing Plan referenced in the timeline above would serve as the primary roadmap for the DRD. It would identify the proposed district boundary, eligible project categories, proposed revenue sources, projected tax increment revenues, and other information required by law. A dedicated webpage will also be developed to provide information and resources for interested stakeholders.
CEQA REVIEW
The City Council’s adoption of the Resolution of Intention and establishment of the MDRD PFA are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they are actions solely related to the creation of a government funding mechanism and the administrative or organizational activities of the City. Therefore, these actions do not constitute a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(4) and 15378(b)(5). Neither of these actions could result in a physical change in the environment because the City has not committed itself to any specific project(s) that could be funded by the MDRD. As a separate and independent ground, these actions are exempt from the requirements of CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that they will have a significant effect on the environment. However, future actions (such as the approval of infrastructure improvements using funding from the MDRD) will be subject to environmental review in accordance with CEQA.
The City Council has two primary options regarding the proposed Malibu Disaster Recovery District.
Option 1 — Adopt the Resolution of Intention and Proceed with MDRD Formation Under this option, the City Council would:
a. Adopt the Resolution of Intention;
b. Establish the proposed Public Financing Authority;
c. Appoint the initial Public Financing Authority members; and d. Direct preparation of the Infrastructure Financing Plan.
Agenda Item # 7.A.
This option would not complete formation of the MDRD, approve specific projects, issue bonds, or commit the City to a final tax increment allocation. Rather, it would initiate the statutory formation process and allow the City, its consultants, and legal counsel to further evaluate the proposed district boundaries, eligible project categories, revenue projections, County participation, grant opportunities, and financing strategy.
This is the recommended option because it preserves the City’s ability to create a dedicated financing mechanism to support long-term recovery, infrastructure restoration, and resilience improvements in the eastern portion of Malibu impacted by the Palisades Fire. Proceeding with the Resolution of Intention would also allow the City to continue discussions with the County of Los Angeles regarding potential participation in the MDRD and to develop the Infrastructure Financing Plan for future public review and consideration.
This option also includes fiscal and administrative considerations. To the extent the City ultimately allocates future property tax increment to the MDRD, that portion of future revenue growth would be dedicated to MDRD-eligible projects and would not be available for unrestricted use in the City’s General Fund during the term of the allocation. Formation and operation of the MDRD would also require ongoing public meetings, administration, financial reporting, legal and consultant support, and coordination with affected taxing entities and other agencies.
Option 2 — Do Not Proceed with DRD Formation at This Time Under this option, the City Council could not proceed with adopting the Resolution of Intention and the formation of the MDRD at this time. The City could continue to pursue other available recovery and infrastructure funding sources, including state and federal grants, loans, utility partnerships, interagency agreements, and other financing tools.
The primary benefit of this option is that future City property tax increment generated within the proposed MDRD boundary would continue to flow to the City’s General Fund and would remain available for unrestricted City purposes. This would preserve maximum General Fund flexibility for Citywide services, operations, infrastructure, emergency response, public safety, maintenance, and other Council priorities. This option would also avoid the administrative, legal, financial, reporting, and governance responsibilities associated with forming and operating a separate Public Financing Authority.
However, not proceeding with the MDRD would also have drawbacks. This may limit the City’s ability to create a long-term local funding source for major recovery needs, leverage County participation, support future bond financing, provide local matching funds for grants, or demonstrate a coordinated financing strategy for post-disaster recovery.
Without the MDRD, recovery and infrastructure projects would need to rely on existing City resources, grants, loans, partnerships, or other funding mechanisms that may be limited, competitive, or uncertain.

RESOLUTION NO. 26-38
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MALIBU DECLARING ITS INTENTION TO ESTABLISH THE MALIBU DISASTER RECOVERY DISTRICT; ESTABLISHING A PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY; AND AUTHORIZING CERTAIN
OTHER ACTIONS RELATED THERETO
The City Council of the City of Malibu does hereby find, order and resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. Recitals.
A. Pursuant to Chapter 2.99 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the California Government Code (commencing with Section 53398.50) (the “EIFD Law”), the City of Malibu ("City") is authorized to establish an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (“EIFD”).
B. Pursuant to Division 6 of Title 6 of the California Government Code (commencing with Section 62300) (the “CRD Law”), the City is authorized to establish a Climate Resilience District (“CRD”).
C. Recognizing the benefits of expeditiously adopting a type of CRD focused on assisting in rebuilding critical infrastructure after a disaster, such as the devastating wildfires in the County of Los Angeles in January 2025, Senate Bill 782 (Perez) ("SB 782") was approved by the Legislature and signed by the Governor on October 10, 2025, adding Section 62313 to the Government Code (“DRD Law”). SB 782 is an urgency statute which took immediate effect upon the Governor’s signature.
D. In the event of a disaster for which the Governor has declared a state of emergency, SB 782 allows the City to form and dedicate revenue to a special form of CRD to finance disaster recovery efforts, including repairing or replacing buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements within the CRD that have been damaged or destroyed by the disaster, mitigating the risk of a future disaster, or supporting economic recovery from a disaster.
E. The Governor of California declared a state of emergency in response to the January 2025 wildfires, including portions of the City known as the “Palisades Wildfire,” on January 7, 2025.
F. This Resolution, consistent with the EIFD Law and CRD Law, as amended by SB 782, creates the Malibu Disaster Recovery District (“MDRD”).
G. The proposed boundaries of the MDRD are focused entirely within the Palisades Fire perimeter area in the eastern portion of the City as identified on a map entitled “Proposed Malibu Disaster Recovery District (DRD) Boundaries,” a copy of which is attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A.
H. The proposed MDRD will be used to finance the repair and replacement of certain needed public facilities and other projects related to the rebuild within the proposed boundaries of the Malibu DRD that were damaged or destroyed in the wildfires and will promote economic development both within and outside the MDRD project area, thereby promoting public safety, commerce, revenues and the public health, safety and welfare of the City.
Resolution No. 26-38
_____________________
I. Pursuant to the DRD Law and CRD Law, the City Council is required to establish a Public Financing Authority (“PFA”) to serve as the governing body of the proposed Malibu DRD and which will also be responsible for implementing the Infrastructure Financing Plan (“IFP”) required under EIFD Law.
J. The proposed MDRD PFA shall be a legal, public entity separate from the City of Malibu, and shall establish bylaws and rules of procedure to govern its meetings.
K. This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) as an action solely related to financing and is not in-and-of itself a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, since it does not result in a physical change in the environment because the City has not committed itself to fund any specific projects through the MDRD.
Future actions, such as the funding and/or approval of infrastructure improvements using funding from the MDRD, will be subject to environmental review in accordance with CEQA.
SECTION 2. The City Council hereby declares its intention to establish the Malibu Disaster Recovery District, establishes the MDRD Public Financing Authority, and authorizes the following actions:
A. The above recitals are true and correct and incorporated into this Resolution by this reference.
B. The name proposed for the DRD is the “Malibu Disaster Recovery District (MDRD).” C. The City Council finds that the Palisades Fire disaster caused damage to the area within the boundaries of the MDRD so prevalent and so substantial that the physical and economic burden created by the Palisades Fire cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or government action, or both, without the establishment of the MDRD to assist redevelopment and recovery. The Governor declared a State of Emergency on January 7, 2025. The Palisades Fire profoundly disrupted life in the community and resulted in the destruction of many structures, including homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure. Families who lost their homes continue to be displaced, and critical infrastructure, including roads, water, sewer, storm drains, utilities, and other facilities, needs to be repaired or replaced to allow for the rebuild of homes and businesses.
D. The MDRD is proposed to be established under the terms of Division 6 of Title 6 of the California Government Code, as amended by SB 782, and the proposed map of the MDRD is attached as Exhibit A.
E. Public facilities and projects included in the MDRD may include acquiring, demolishing, removing, relocating, repairing, restoring, rehabilitating, or replacing buildings, low- and moderate-income housing, facilities, structures, or other improvements, in accordance with applicable laws, which are within the district, and which have been damaged or destroyed by the disaster, which are unsafe to occupy, or which are required to be acquired, demolished, altered, or removed because of the disaster. In addition, projects may include those that mitigate the risk of future disaster, including water and energy resource access during emergencies and undergrounding of utilities, and projects that support economic Resolution No. 26-38
_____________________
recovery from a disaster, as described in Section 62313(f)(3) of the California Government Code.
F. Given the level of destruction created by the Palisades Fire, the need for the MDRD is significant, and the primary goal of the MDRD is to fund infrastructure projects that will allow for the rebuilding of the community.
G. Pursuant to Section 53398.68 of the California Government Code, incremental property tax revenue from the City of Malibu and potentially the County of Los Angeles, subject to approval by the County Board of Supervisors, may be used to finance the activities described in this Resolution. The City’s commitment and contribution to the MDRD shall be up to seventy-five percent (75%) of the City’s portion of the ad valorem property tax increment and the City’s available portion of property tax in lieu of the motor vehicle license fees from within the boundaries of the MDRD for the life of the MDRD, subject to limits on tax increment contributions and time provided by law and this Resolution.
H. The City does not intend to include tax revenues derived from local sales and use taxes in its contribution to the MDRD. Any consideration of the use of Bradley-Burns or other sales and use taxes would require future City Council and PFA approval.
I. The public meeting of the governing board to consider adoption of the IFP for the MDRD shall take place on or about September 14, 2026. The place of the public meeting is the City Hall City Council Chambers, 23825 Stuart Ranch Road, Malibu, CA 90265. Notice of the exact time and place of the meeting will be posted in advance.
J. The City Council hereby establishes the MDRD Public Financing Authority (PFA) to act as the governing board of the proposed DRD. The PFA shall be initially comprised of three members of the City Council and two members of the public appointed by the City Council.
If another taxing entity, such as the County of Los Angeles, ultimately elects to partner with the City in the MDRD, then the PFA shall be revised in accordance with Government Code Section 53398.51.1, for example, to include two members of the City Council, one member of that taxing entity’s legislative body, such as a County Supervisor or her designee, one member of the public appointed by the City Council, and one member of the public appointed by the legislative body of that taxing entity, such as the County Board of Supervisors.
K. The City did not have a former Redevelopment Agency and is thus not subject to Successor Agency prerequisites as it pertains to EIFD Law.
L. Staff will prepare the IFP in accordance with applicable EIFD Law, CRD Law, and DRD Law.
M. The IFP will be presented to the MDRD PFA on or about September 14, 2026 for approval, and will be consistent with Section 53398.63, which requires a map and legal description of the area, a description of the public infrastructure projects to be financed, and a financing section describing the amount and division of future property tax increment and project time and dollar limits.
Resolution No. 26-38
_____________________
N. By approving this Resolution, consistent with DRD Law, the City Council provides its approval for the future contribution of the City General Fund share of property tax increment and property tax in lieu of motor vehicle license fees to the MDRD, consistent with the IFP approved by the MDRD PFA.
O. The governing body (PFA) of the MDRD shall post notice of its meeting at least 10 days prior to the meeting and make available the IFP 30 days prior to its meeting.
P. The governing body (PFA) of the MDRD will hold a public meeting for the establishment of the proposed MDRD and approval of the IFP.
Q. This Resolution obligates the City of Malibu to contribute incremental tax revenue to the MDRD to be used consistent with the IFP approved by the governing body (PFA) of the MDRD, which may be amended as provided by law.
R. This Resolution provides the City Council’s approval to establish the proposed MDRD.
The approval of the IFP is contingent upon the approval by the governing body (PFA) of the MDRD.
S. The City Manager, Assistant City Manager(s), or their designees may access and review the MDRD’s records upon request for any purpose.
T. If any section, subsection, phrase, or clause of this Resolution is for any reason found to be invalid, such section, subsection, phrase, or clause shall be severed from, and shall not affect the validity of, all remaining portions of this Resolution that can be given effect without the severed portion.
U. The City Clerk and all other officers and agents of the City are hereby authorized and directed to take all actions necessary or advisable to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Resolution.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Resolution and enter it into the book of original resolutions.

Council Agenda Report
To: Mayor Silverstein and the Honorable Members of the City Council Prepared by: Chris Orosz, Recreation Manager
Reviewed by: Kristin Riesgo, Community Services Director Approved by: Joseph D. Irvin, City Manager
Date prepared: May 26, 2026 Meeting date: June 22, 2026 Subject: PaliBu Chamber of Commerce Event Fee Waiver
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consider whether to approve the request from the PaliBu Chamber of Commerce (PaliBu) to waive facility use fees and staffing costs associated with the Recovery Expo event held on Saturday, May 16, 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT: Waiving the facility use and staffing fees will result in a loss of revenue of $2,667 for Fiscal Year 2025-26 in Account Number 100-0000-3461-00 (Municipal Facility Use Fees). The Malibu Municipal Code allows for up to six Temporary Use Permits (TUP) per parcel per calendar year. TUP events generate revenue for the City, and waiving the associated fees reduces that revenue.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY: N/A
DISCUSSION: PaliBu serves the Malibu and Pacific Palisades business communities and is committed to providing meaningful advocacy, resiliency support, and sustainability initiatives to the community and its members. On May 16, 2026, Palibu hosted the Recovery Expo on the Ioki property. The event was free and open to the public, providing resources on post-fire rebuilding, safety, home hardening, wellness, and more.
Additionally, attendees could learn about navigating phases of rebuilding and recovery during 'Ask the Experts' discussion panels. Approximately 500 people attended the oneday event.
The Recovery Expo delivered a community benefit by centralizing essential post-fire information and support services in a single, accessible venue. Attendees gained practical guidance from experts on rebuilding, safety, and wellness, helping to navigate a City Council Meeting

complex recovery process. The event also fostered connections between residents, business owners, and resource providers, strengthening overall community resilience.
The attendance also demonstrated the need for these coordinated services.
PaliBu has requested a retroactive fee waiver for facility use and staffing. PaliBu met the eligibility criteria and submitted all required forms outlined in City Council Policy #53 Facility Fee Waiver Policy (Policy). The Policy states Council must approve fee waivers for an organization that has never applied for a facility fee waiver.
Fees associated with the facility rental include,
Type Non-Profit Rate
Ioki Property (12 hours) $1,591
Application Fee and Staffing $1,076
Total $2,667
All other event-related fees, including permit fees, were paid by PaliBu and are not part of this request.
The Palibu Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that operates under the fiscal sponsorship of the California Community Foundation and its Affiliates (Attachment 1).

Date prepared: June 5, 2026 Meeting date: June 22, 2026 Subject: 2026-27 Harry Barovsky Memorial Youth Commission Appointments RECOMMENDED ACTION: Appoint Commissioners to the 2026-27 Harry Barovsky Memorial Youth Commission.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY: N/A
DISCUSSION: On November 8, 1999, the Council established the Harry Barovsky Memorial Youth Commission (Commission) to serve as a voice for the youth of Malibu.
The Commission facilitates leadership and volunteer opportunities through meetings, programs, and events. Commissioners also discuss local youth advocacy programs, demonstrate leadership amongst their peers, and promote civic responsibility.
In 2025, Council adopted Resolution No. 25-26, which modified the Commission structure to include membership of no less than seven and no more than twenty-six members and appointment by a majority vote of the Council at large (Attachment 1).
During the current term, the Commission provided feedback on the application process for the 2026-27 term. The Commission recommended minimum word counts on the application, interview options either in-person or virtual, and interview questions based on personal character which would be less likely to be answered by artificial intelligence. Staff implemented these items into the 2026-27 recruitment process.

Agenda Item # 8.A.
The 2026-27 Youth Commission recruitment resulted in thirty-four applicants. Two applicants were dismissed for failing to meet the application requirements. Thirty-two applicants were invited to participate in interviews, which is a mandatory prerequisite for an appointment. Twenty-eight applicants successfully attended the mandatory interview.
The number of completed applications and interviews exceeds the number of Members in Resolution 25-26, Section 2.2, by two members.
Staff recommends Council appoint twenty-six members to serve on the 2026-27 Harry Barovsky Memorial Youth Commission, excluding two applicants who were dismissed from the 2025-26 appointment year due to absences from meetings and events listed in Resolution 25-26, Section 2.6. Candidates recommended for appointment include nine students in grade twelve, five in grade eleven, seven in grade ten, two in grade nine, one in grade eight, and two in grade seven (Attachment 2).
For future consideration and to address a rising interest in students serving on the Youth Commission, staff will work with the 2026-27 Youth Commission to review the application and requirement processes. Staff will implement Commission feedback and if required, return to Council with a Commission recommendation to revise the recruitment process for the 2027-28 application period.

What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think a major issue that malibu teens face is that there isn't enough programs or events directly related to teens, I think there should be events that relates to younger peers in our commmunity that can go so you can meet more people the same age as you, and have a place that teens can hang out without feeling left out.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were selected to be a youth commissioner, I would like to promote a more direct line of communication between local government and the youth population. I would like to see the commission host regular town halls where students from our schools share their concerns directly with the city council and concerns about our community, ensuring our students have a voice when local decisions are made. I would also make our community more inclusive to our teen population and try to relate to them. I also think there should be more resources for community belonging, because a sense of belonging is the start of a thriving youth population.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I am a very organized, hard working and punctual person. I am very good with numbers and I am in the honors math program at my school where I have maintained straight A's in all subjects. I love to share ideas with people and to collaborate on projects. I play cello, tennis and I do karate. I have a really good sense of humor.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* I play cello in the 7/8th grade orchestra ( the only 6th grader in the class) and I volunteered to play in the Christmas tree lot over the holidays on my school break to help raise money for our school. I have volunteered for several beach clean ups.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I feel that smart phones in the hands of Malibu teens have created the illusion that teens have to appear perfect in front of the camera.
I also feel that there are a lack of fun places for teens to hang out safely in Malibu.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I was selected a Youth Commissioner for the City of Malibu I would work hard to organize more events for teens and try to get a Public Arts Space built on one of the empty parcels of land the city owns, with a movie theatre with student discount tickets, a recording studio, a rehearsal space and an art gallery.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I have been enrolled in the advanced math program at Malibu Middle and High School since sixth grade, so my math skills could be very useful for calculations of items necessary for events and money/profit calculations. I am also very organized and good at completing tasks with quality effort before the deadline. I also really enjoy many forms of art, such as, drawing, playing violin, piano, and photography. I could help design posters for events, and I could also take pictures at them for the local media.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* In sixth grade, I was a part of the Yearbook Committee, where I took photos of events, designed yearbook pages, and helped document school spirit days. In my eighth grade graduation, I received the Principal's Award, which is a certificate given to those who have shown excellence in all fields. I have also won student of the month several times. I have also participated in a plethora of beach cleanups, especially after the rains when the beaches are swarmed with trash that was washed down from the roads. This past December, I was a student leader who helped organize the orchestra performance at the Christmas Tree Lot at Cross Creek.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think that the number one issue that Malibu teens face are phones. I do not have a phone myself, but I see how they affect everyone around me. They have plagued the concept of childhood, because now all kids want to do is doomscroll on their phones instead of utilizing the great outdoors. Phones have become companions to the modern day human, but especially to teens. They can be very useful for communication and organization, but the are too great of a distraction to be situated in the pocket of almost every single kid.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * I would like to see the Youth Commission help build a movie theatre and collective art space. I just recently watched the Malibu High School talent show Masque, and it was so cool to see so many extremely talented people who I had no idea were so gifted at music and performing on stage. It would be amazing to have more events like this to encourage teens to get off of their devices and show the community their talents. I would also like to organize more surf competitions and womens surf contests like the Queen of the Point.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I would bring strong leadership and collaboration skills to the Youth Commission, which I have developed through both academic and extracurricular experiences. Being cofounder of my school’s chemistry club, along with my experience in environments like working at SunLife, playing varsity golf, and doing competitive dance, I have strengthened my ability to work effectively with others and contribute to/ lead a team. In addition, I am comfortable communicating with a wide range of people and value cooperation and mutual respect. Overall, I have the ability to both lead when necessary and support others to achieve our shared goals.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* I’ve been consistently involved in both school and community-focused activities, especially ones centered around service and outreach. I organized a fall food drive that collected over 800 cans of food for families in need, which required lots of planning and getting people motivated to participate. In the spring, I led a toiletry drive through the nonprofit I am a part of in collaboration with the LA Mayor’s office, which gave me experience working with larger organizations and managing a more structured initiative. I’m also on the varsity golf team, where I’ve developed discipline.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think one of the biggest issues facing Malibu teens right now is a lack of connection. A lot of students are busy and involved, but that doesn’t always translate into feeling connected to their peers or their community. Social media, academic pressure, and expectations can make it easy to feel isolated or disconnected, even in a place like Malibu. There also aren’t always enough accessible, low-pressure opportunities for students to get involved in something meaningful.
Creating more spaces and programs that encourage real interaction, collaboration, and inclusion would make a noticeable difference in how supported and engaged teens feel.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were selected, I would want the Youth Commission to focus on expanding our work to be even more impactful. Malibu has such a strong connection to its environment, so expanding projects like beach cleanups would be a meaningful way to get more students involved. At the same time, I think the Commission could do a better job reaching students in the community who aren’t already involved. Increasing outreach through schools, events, and more accessible opportunities would help bring in a wider range of voices. I would want the Commission to make sure more students feel included in and connected to the work being done.

What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * Phone addiction is one of Malibu's major issues facing teens. Every day at school, I constantly see students on their phones instead of doing work in class. I understand that it is sometimes very necessary to use your phone, but that is rarely the case. Most teens who use their phones are either doomscrolling or playing games in class. Even outside of class at lunch and after school, I still see many teens sitting on their phones, while they could instead be doing something productive. I think that organizing fun events and opportunities for teens to go out would be a great way to reduce phone usage and addiction. An event could be a sports competition where teens can be involved to come out and play, or a beach day with food and games.
Both of these examples get teens outside, away from their phones.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, I would like to see the Commission organize more events for the Youth beyond the usual annual ones.
More specifically, I think that the Commission should begin working with Malibu High School and the local elementary schools to organize events that would bring our community together. For example, the Commission could work with the schools to organize a sports day for the elementary schools that includes one school taking a field trip to the other and having a field day with games and competitions. I would also like to see the Commission have more input from the general youth population in Malibu. While as Commissioners we are representatives of the youth, I think that implementing things like polls and even social media publicity would allow for those not involved in the Youth Commission to have an impact on our initiatives and see what their city is doing for them.

What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * As a teen born and raised in Malibu I have come to acknowledge that many things in our town are different. In most ways this is great, but some are cons. Now, that I've been a student at the high school for almost a full year I have seen that we lack school funding. Especially since I'm apart of ASB, I really see a version of it most students don't. This lack of funding is majorly impacting all parts around this school, like sporting events, school events, and many important; but boring, parts of the school, so I won't get into those. But I feel as if we aren't getting the high school experience we all now and come to love. I just hope that I can help Malibu schools get the love they all want and deserve, because I know that we all need more school spirit.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were to be selected to be a Youth Commissioner, I would want to see Malibu become a more safe and connected town. As a new driver I hope to see myself collaborate with others to help me and many other teens feel safer on our main road. Also I hope to help bring the community together more. One thing I want to push for is bringing back the Chili Cook Off. This is the one time of year that all of us are together all enjoying our selfs, and I take pride in being a Malibu resident during this time. All and all I hope to see myself be more involved in this city, because I want to make a change.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I think my biggest strength is that I’m a huge team player. Between sports and being Choir Secretary, I’ve learned how to work well with different groups of people. I’m also very dependable and always show up ready to help. I’m a creative thinker, and I’m always looking for new ideas or ways to use social media to get more students involved in what the City is doing.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* I am currently in two sports at Malibu High (volleyball and track) and have been in choir since 6th grade with Dr. Sorensen, and for the last two years, I’ve served as the Choir Secretary. I am also an active member of 3 clubs (Young Life, Dough Good, Best Buddies). Through these clubs and the choir, I have participated in community activities and service. It has helped me interact with different parts of the community.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * After getting my license, I have realized that there are not a lot of places or events in Malibu that are teen-oriented. It would be easy to stay at home and disconnect from others. I think that teens spend too much time on their phones. But, I have found that when I want to hang out with my friends, we will usually either be in one of our houses or through the canyon, meaning we spend more time traveling than actually hanging out. Many places in Malibu cost a lot of money or are not targeted at teens.
After seeing how much fun I had running Malibu Moves (I ran the 5k) last year, it made me realize that I can do more to help support and promote healthy, outdoor activities for teens to participate in locally.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * I would be a new member of the Youth Commission, so I would want to connect with members who have served before and hear what their experience was like and what their goals were/are for the upcoming year. I would like to set reasonable goals for the year and work hard on 1-2 major ideas and fully complete them. I think it would be great to work on one major teen event with the City every quarter, so there’s always something to look forward to. I’d love to help with the actual event planning.

Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think a major issue is a lack of connection, from what i’ve noticed at school is that there are many close groups but they choose to separate themselves from each other, and I hope that serving another year on the commission can help bring them together.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I bring strong leadership, teamwork, and communication skills from playing water polo and doing Junior Lifeguards. I am always open to others' perspectives because as a community everyone has a voice. I also commit to goals and work hard, which is why I received the presidential award in eighth grade.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* I am extremely involved in school activities because I believe that the school is the center of our community. Inside school, I am on the swim team and water polo team. I am also a part of the Junior Community Fire Brigade, and I am in the robotics club, which both help develop my communication and teamwork skills. Outside of school I do Junior Lifeguards, where I learn ocean safety and push myself to its limits. I've also participated in a couple of trash pickups at Malibu beaches to help keep our community clean.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think that a major issue with the teens of Malibu is maintaining their mental health. The pressure of academics and extracurriculars has become so stressful for students. A lot of students feel stressed while trying to do well in school and meet expectations. I think there should be more safe mental health sources for teens where they can talk openly and freely while feeling comfortable.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, I would like for teens to get more involved in the community and make great accomplishments because it's important for our voices to be heard. I would focus on making mental health resources available to teens and organizing beach cleanups because I think it's important for our community to develop environmental awareness because we live so close to the ocean. Most importantly of all, I would like for teens to put their phones down, connect with our environment, and help build a strong community.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I think that this year I came in to feel out the space and see what the Youth Commission is about, and I would love to come back again next year and take what I've learned this year to engage more with my fellow commissioners. I think I'm able to create a positive social environment where people feel comfortable to share their ideas and engage comfortably, which can be a good skill to bring because we have such a wide range of students among the Youth Commission. I'm very passionate about community service as it is something I would love to do with my future and so I think I'm also able to bring excitement about doing what we do to meetings and events. Overall, I think if I seize the opportunity, I'm able to bring a passion and also positive work environment/leadership to the Youth Commission, which I would be so grateful to do.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* I participate in many arts; I play the viola for our orchestra, I sing in our after school chamber choir, and I do theater (both the fall play and the spring musical). Music in all forms is a big passion of mine and I love the community it creates between singers, dancers, or instrument players who all share excitement over what they do. In our choir cabinet, I'm the chamber choir representative because I like to be involved despite only being able to do the after school class. Even though my arts participation is time consuming, it feels like more of a break from the more stressful parts of school because at the end of the day I'm doing something I love with really close friends. My favorite school activity that I run is the Dough Good Baking Club. I started it in freshman year, but it's definitely taken off more in my sophomore year. Our goal is to raise funds and participate in community service events with the aim to lessen the hunger crisis around the world. We do the weekly Bake N' Share at Malibu Methodist, a community service event that provides baked goods to those with a lack of food. Our current big goal is to raise money for a non-profit organization with similar goals as us and donate it at the end of the year. I have so much fun running my club and it also feels like such a reward to be able to do it with people that care as much as I do.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I think currently, Malibu teens is pressure and anxiety caused by past events such as the fires that affect abilities to perform in school. It's very difficult to live in uncertainty when it feels like the community around you is constantly changing, although this is something that I think has improved greatly since the time of the fires, since it has been a little over a year. Beyond the fires, a more recent issue could be the weight of stress in school that carries on far after the school day/week is over. It could be the fact that I'm getting further into high school, but I've noticed many more people during my sophomore year that are commenting about their burnout and stress that's caused by their workloads combined with activities outside of school. School is exhausting anyway, but I've noticed my own friends' exhaustion and difficulty to keep up the pace that our workloads demand, which affects life outside of school. I think the issue is balance; teens can take preemptive measures to keep themselves from constantly being burned out, but I also think it's important to remind teens that their exhaustion matters and it is okay to take a break.

If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I'm selected to be a Youth Commissioner, I would love to participate on the board. I would love to see the Commission expand community service event participants, because I think that showing up is the most important thing, so I think it would be great to accomplish more of a commitment from people in terms of showing up to our service events. I would also like to experiment with the idea of working towards a big goal that we want to accomplish by the end of the 26-27 year. I think this could be in the form of a certain number of hours we want to complete as a commission, a big material donation for an organization, or even donation money (but I'm not sure what our rules or limitations are for fundraising).
The Commission is already making a large impact and I think it would be amazing if we as a group could come up with a big project or goal to work towards.

Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * A major issue that is facing Malibu teens like myself today is mental health and stress. Many students feel pressured by sports, social media, academics, and planning for their future, which can lead to burnout and anxiety. Teens need more support and safe spaces to talk about their feelings and would benefit from programs that support the well being.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I were selected as a Youth Commissioner, I would like to see the commission create more opportunities for teens to feel more connected and involved in the Malibu Community. This may include organizing events that bring students together, expanding mental health programs, and creating a forum where teens can share concerns with us. I would also love to see the commission increase volunteer and leadership opportunities so students can feel like they can make a difference.
Overall, I would love to see the Youth Commission help strengthen the voice ofMalibuu teens and ensure that their ideas are heard and will be acted upon.

What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * I believe the major issue facing teens in Malibu is a lack of places to go and hang out.

Malibu is missing places like a movie theater, a bowing ally even a diner where kids can hang out and stay safe.

What skills, talents, or strengths would you bring to the Youth Commission? * I feel that I bring my communication, leadership and collaboration skills to the commission to help with whatever challenges we may have. These skills are very important for the team sports, musical groups and theater which I am a part of as we need to be able to interact and work effectively together in order to win our games or to perform the best we can. Similarly, I feel that being able to easily communicate and connect with others is very helpful when part of a commission as we need to be able to work together in order for the commission to run smoothly and to help our community thrive.
Minimum of 25 words.
Describe your involvement in school activities, including any volunteer experience.* At my school I am involved in different activities such as our girls waterpolo, volleyball and swim teams. Along with that, I am in high school orchestra, chamber choir and immersed in our theater’s musical. At school I am also part of Young Life, a youth club where we can talk, pray and read the bible together and open for anyone who would like to join. When I am given the opportunity for community service, I have helped out at the school's snack shack, almost all of our varsity volleyball team’s games (our whole team helps) and when the events come up, help sing and play my viola at fundraisers and or events for the community. Being a part of the Youth Commission has opened up so many community service opportunities for me to participate in, such as the Malibu Moves Marathon and the Bu Bash at Bluffs Park! I love being a part of these clubs, teams and most of all being able to be involved in various volunteer opportunities. I feel so accomplished when volunteering in these events and so thankful that I have really been able to give back to my community.
Minimum of 25 words.
What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * Although it doesn’t just effect Malibu teens, most teens struggle with mental health issues with social media, who we surround ourselves with and more. Mental health is a big issue for teens, which we all really need to focus on.
Minimum of 25 words.
If you were selected to be a Youth Commissioner, what would you like to see the Commission accomplish? * If I am selected to be on the Youth Commission again, I would love to see us focus on mental health awareness in our community. Mental health is a very important topic as most teens today struggle with it. Being able to set up events to spread awareness, engage the community, and even set up fundraisers would be very beneficial. For this upcoming school year I am trying to start a club focused on mental health with all of these goals and purposes as it is such a big issue that our world faces today. Hopefully we could even figure out how to collaborate both the club and the commission together to help set up these events in order to spread awareness and benefit those who struggle with mental health.

What do you think is a current major issue facing Malibu teens? * One major issue facing Malibu teens is the lack of safe, positive spaces where they can spend time together. There aren’t many places for teens to hang out in an environment that encourages creativity, inspiration, and genuine connection.
Because of this, some teens may feel isolated or turn to less healthy activities out of boredom. Creating more welcoming spaces and programs for teens could help build a stronger community, support mental well-being, and foster a more positive community.
