Item
5.A.
Agenda Item # 5.A.
17.02.060 (Definitions). This term is currently not defined in the LIP or MMC and its inclusion would be beneficial when applying development standards to projects whether on the beach or not. The proposed definition would not change any City practices or policies but would memorialize the City’s longstanding application of this term in its codes.
Preparation of the Beachfront definition was directed by the City Council on December 8, 2025, by Resolution No. 25-56.
The ordinance amendments are provided within Attachment 1 and represent the operative ordinance text recommended for adoption.
Planning Commission Recommendation
On May 18, 2026, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 26-20 (Attachment 2) recommending that the City Council approve LCPA No. 26-002 and ZTA No. 26-002.
No changes to the draft ordinance presented to the Planning Commission were recommended and Ordinance No. 537 remains unchanged. The Planning Commission discussed what standards would be applied in the event of a lot merger between a nonbeachfront parcel and beachfront parcel. Staff clarified that non-beachfront standards would still be applied to the newly formed parcel based on the criteria in the definition.
Zoning Ordinance Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee Feedback The proposed definition was reviewed by the City Council’s Zoning Ordinance Revisions and Code Enforcement Subcommittee (ZORACES) at its meeting on March 26, 2026. The subcommittee voted 2-0 to proceed with the definition as recommended by staff to the Planning Commission for review. For clarity to the public, the subcommittee provided the following feedback:
1) Clarify that the LCPA/ZTA would not be changing any City practices or policies but rather memorializing the City’s longstanding practice when applying beachfront development standards; (Achieved on both the Planning Commission staff report and this Council report)
2) In the staff presentation, include enhanced mapping of example areas using the City’s GIS and Google Earth; (Achieved on both the Planning Commission presentation and further strengthened in the Council presentation) and 3) In the staff presentation, include Broad Beach Road in the examples of when beachfront development standards apply. (Achieved on both the Planning Commission presentation and in the Council presentation) Background
When applying development standards to projects requiring setbacks, height, impermeable coverage, two-thirds calculation, and Total Development Square Footage
Agenda Item # 5.A.
(TDSF), the LIP and MMC provide a different set of development standards for beachfront and non-beachfront projects. Beachfront development standards allow less setbacks and increased height than non-beachfront development standards. Additionally, beachfront development is not subject to the impermeable coverage, two-thirds calculation, and TDSF limitations that are otherwise applied to non-beachfront development. Since these limitations do not apply to beachfront development, it is important for the City to clearly define what parcels are subject to beachfront development standards to prevent nonbeachfront development from mistakenly leveraging those allowances. Beachfront parcels are generally smaller and more constrained in size, which is why previous City policymakers established reduced development standards to account for their limited developable area. In contrast, many non-beachfront parcels are larger, reflecting Malibu’s rural nature and providing ample space for development. Non-beachfront parcels have limitations on development area, stricter setback and regulations related to clustering development in order to preserve natural areas while on beachfront parcels, the primary goal of the development standards is to protect beach resources related to environmental quality, public access, and scenic corridors. There are distinct differences in the characteristics of these two types of parcels in Malibu that warrant a clear definition so their purpose is not misused.
Neither the LIP nor MMC provide a definition of Beachfront or Non-Beachfront and, while in most cases the distinction between the two is obvious, there are nuances with the location of development and configuration of some ocean-fronting parcels in the City that have resulted in ambiguity for applicants, the City’s reviewers, and decision-makers. In practice, the Planning Division and the CCC through their review of development projects in the City, have historically qualified that beachfront development standards apply based on a parcel’s orientation to the coast, the zoning designation, and the location of the structure. It should be noted that the City and CCC have historically agreed on what is considered a beachfront parcel. Geologic characteristics associated with the location of the primary use structure, such as the footprint of a residence as it is situated on a parcel, is a defining factor and not just the location of the parcel itself.
Establishing a definition of Beachfront in the LIP and MMC would provide clarity to the public and City, improve consistency in project review, and reduce the need for case-bybase interpretations. It would also better position the City if challenges to a project's development standards were made by an applicant looking to maximize the extra code allowances of beachfront development that are intended to be for the typical constrained beachfront parcel.
Agenda Item # 5.A.
Proposed Definition
The proposed definition would read:
BEACHFRONT: A parcel is considered beachfront when one of its parcel boundary lines is the Pacific Ocean or beach directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, the parcel does not have a zoning designation of Rural Residential, and the site of proposed development is either directly on the beach or within a low-lying shoreline area contiguous with the beach and not separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, or other elevated coastal landform. Parcels not meeting these criteria shall be considered non-beachfront. Beachfront development standards shall only apply to parcels meeting this definition where the primary use structure is located in one of these areas. An ancillary structure on the beach shall not constitute a parcel to be beachfront if the primary use structure is not located on the beach.
The proposed definition would align LIP Section 2.1 (General Definitions) and MMC Section 17.02.060 (Definitions) with the City’s longstanding practice for qualifying when beachfront development standards apply.
The structure of the proposed definition was based on the following three components:
1) Physical Relationship to the Pacific Ocean: A parcel must directly abut the ocean.
This component is important to ensure beachfront development standards are applied to parcels adjacent to the coast and not parcels adjacent to other low-lying areas, such as lagoons or blue-line streams; and
2) Consistency with the General Plan and Zoning Maps: A parcel must not be located within the General Plan, zoning code, or LCP land use designation of Rural Residential (RR) due to the lower-intensity development pattern envisioned for the RR residential land use and minimum lot size of one acre. This component is important because several parcels in the City are designated as RR and are oriented along the coast, as well as typically being larger in lot size. These lots are typically larger in size and have development that is separated from the beach by elevated landforms covered in the paragraph below. Allowing the use of beachfront development standards for these large RR parcels along the coast could allow for the parcels to develop in a relatively dense pattern that would not be consistent with the rural ambiance envisioned by the General Plan for such areas; and 3) Geologic Characteristics of a Beachfront Environment: The footprint of the primary use structure of a parcel must be reflective of geologic characteristics of a beachfront environment such as representing a low-lying coastal landform contiguous to the beach and not being separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, or other prominent elevated coastal landform. This component is important
Agenda Item # 5.A.
because some parcels in the City are oriented along the coast and not within the RR land use designation, such as parcels in the Single Family Medium (SFM) land use designation; however, the location of proposed development for a primary use is separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, hill, or some other prominent coastal landform. Typically, parcels that include coastal bluffs or other prominent elevated coastal landforms are also larger in lot size than the parcels that are reflective of a beachfront environment. Allowing the use of beachfront development standards for parcels along the coast that are separated from the beach by a coastal bluff or some other prominent coastal landform would allow for development much larger than intended by the General Plan.
General Plan & LCP Consistency
The proposed amendment is supported by the following General Plan Mission Statement and Land Use (LU) Element, and LCP Land Use Plan (LUP) policies.
General Plan
1) Mission Statement (excerpt): Malibu will maintain its rural character by establishing programs and policies that avoid suburbanization and commercialization of its natural and cultural resources.
2) LU Policy 1.1.1: The City shall protect the natural environment by regulating design and permitting only land uses compatible with the natural environment. 3) LU Policy 1.1.4: The City shall preserve the City's rural residential character. 4) LU Policy 1.1.5: The City shall require careful site planning which blends development with the natural topography.
5) LU Policy 2.3.2: The City shall discourage “mansionization” by establishing limits on height, bulk, and square footage for all new and remodel single-family residences. 6) LU Policy 2.4.1: The City shall preserve and protect vistas and large open areas that contribute to the rural feeling of the area.
7) LU Policy 6.1.1: The City shall use development standards and procedures that protect the property owners' reasonable use of their land consistent with the goals and policies of this General Plan.
LUP
1) LUP Policy 5.7: New development shall conform to the hillside management provisions of the LIP, including measures to minimize impacts to scenic and visual resources and to minimize the risk from hazards. The measures include but are not limited to limiting grading and retaining walls, restricting development on steep slopes, protecting ridgelines, and applying siting and design restrictions (scenic and visual policies). The slope density criteria of the subdivision ordinance shall apply
Agenda Item # 5.A.
to sloping terrain and be applied in combination with the base land use designation in order to determine the maximum allowable density.
2) LUP Policy 5.25: In order to protect the rural character, improvements, which create a suburban atmosphere such as sidewalks and streetlights, shall be avoided in any rural residential designation.
3) LUP Policy 6.5: New development shall be sited and designed to minimize adverse impacts on scenic areas visible from scenic roads or public viewing areas to the maximum feasible extent. If there is no feasible building site location on the proposed project site where development would not be visible, then the development shall be sited and designed to minimize impacts on scenic areas visible from scenic highways or public viewing areas, through measures including, but not limited to, siting development in the least visible portion of the site, breaking up the mass of new structures, designing structures to blend into the natural hillside setting, restricting the building maximum size, reducing maximum height standards, clustering development, minimizing grading, incorporating landscape elements, and where appropriate, berming.
4) LUP Policy 6.7: The height of structures shall be limited to minimize impacts to visual resources. The maximum allowable height, except for beachfront lots, shall be 18 feet above existing or finished grade, whichever is lower. On beachfront lots, or where found appropriate through Site Plan Review, the maximum height shall be 24 feet (flat roofs) or 28 feet (pitched roofs) above existing or finished grade, whichever is lower. Chimneys and rooftop antennas may be permitted to extend above the permitted height of the structure.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Pursuant to CEQA, the proposed LCP and MMC amendment actions have been analyzed by the Planning Commission and determined to be Statutorily Exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15265 because CEQA does not apply to activities or approvals by a local government as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCPA for review and certification by the CCC as set forth in Section 21080.9 of the Public Resources Code. Accordingly, the certified City of Malibu LCP constitutes a plan for use in the CCC’s regulatory program as certified under Section 21080.5 of the Public Resources Code.
PUBLIC NOTICE: The City published a Notice of Public Hearing and Notice of Availability of LCP Amendments in a newspaper of general circulation within the City of Malibu on July 16, 2026 (Attachment 3). Additionally, the interested parties list for LCPAs and ZTAs were sent a courtesy email with the date of the agendized City Council item and instructions for participation. As of the writing of the report, staff has not received public comments.
SUMMARY: Staff recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 537 approving LCPA No. 26-002 and ZTA No. 26-002 to add a definition of Beachfront to LIP Section 2.1 (General Definitions) and MMC Section 17.02.060 (Definitions). If adopted
Agenda Item # 5.A.
after a second reading of the ordinance on August 24, 2026, staff would file LCPA No. 26- 002 with the CCC for certification. The LCPA (and ZTA as a corollary amendment) would become effective upon certification by the CCC.

The City Council of the City of Malibu does ordain as follows.
SECTION 1. Recitals.
A. On December 8, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-56 to initiate the preparation of a Beachfront definition.
B. On March 26, 2026, the City Council Zoning Ordinance Revision and Code Enforcement Subcommittee (ZORACES) met to discuss the proposed amendments and provided feedback for staff to incorporate as the ordinance advances to the Planning Commission.

If adopted, the City Council directed staff to file the LCPA with the California Coastal Commission (CCC) for certification.
Ordinance No. 537
____________________
SECTION 2. Environmental Review.
The City Council finds that pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed LCP and Malibu Municipal Code (MMC) amendment actions have been analyzed and determined to be Statutorily Exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15265 because CEQA does not apply to activities or approvals by a local government as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCPA for review and certification by the CCC as set forth in Section 21080.9 of the Public Resources Code. Accordingly, the certified City of Malibu LCP constitutes a plan for use in the CCC’s regulatory program as certified under Section 21080.5 of the Public Resources Code.
SECTION 3. Local Coastal Program Amendment Findings.
Pursuant to LCP Local Implementation Plan (LIP) Section 19.6, the City Council hereby makes the following findings to approve LCPA No. 26-002 as stated in Section 4 of this ordinance.
A. Section 30251 of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act states that the scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas be considered and protected as a resource of public importance. The Section requires that coastal development must protect scenic views, be visually compatible with surroundings, and, where feasible, restore and enhance visual quality in visually degraded areas.
Highly scenic areas, including areas to and along the ocean, scenic roads, and public viewing areas, require development to be subordinate to the setting. Establishing a proper definition of “Beachfront” will ensure that only true beachfront development utilize the standards which are meant for more constrained parcels along the coast bound by the ocean and limited parcel width, and further preserve more scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas in Malibu.
B. Chapters 5 and 6 of the Malibu LCP Land Use Plan (LUP) incorporate the Coastal Act’s development policies, including Section 30251, to minimize impacts on scenic resources.
This includes restricting development and applying siting and design restrictions.
C. LIP Chapter 3 implements the LUP by requiring development standards applicable to beachfront and non-beachfront development. Non-beachfront development standards require increased setbacks and lower heights than beachfront development standards, as well as restrictions on impermeable coverage, limits on the volume of development above 18 feet (twothirds calculation), and Total Development Square Footage (TDSF) limitations. This is due to nonbeachfront parcels being larger in size where those extra limitations help to preserve Malibu’s coastal resources. Historically, the City and CCC through its review of coastal development have qualified that beachfront development standards apply based on a parcel’s orientation to the coast, the zoning designation, and the location of the structure. Geologic characteristics associated with the location of the primary use structure, such as the footprint of a single-family residence as it is situated on a parcel, is a defining factor and not just the location of the parcel itself. Establishing a definition of Beachfront in the LIP would further implement Chapters 5 and 6 of the LUP and Section 30251 of the Coastal Act by ensuring the appropriate application of non-beachfront development standards are being applied to parcels that do not meet the eligibility components of a beachfront parcel.
Ordinance No. 537
____________________
SECTION 4. Local Coastal Program Amendment.
Section 2.1 (General Definitions) of the LIP is hereby amended to add the following new definition as follows:
BEACHFRONT: A parcel is considered beachfront when one of its parcel boundary lines is the Pacific Ocean or beach directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, the parcel does not have a zoning designation of Rural Residential, and the site of proposed development is either directly on the beach or within a low-lying shoreline area contiguous with the beach and not separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, or other elevated coastal landform. Parcels not meeting these criteria shall be considered non-beachfront.
Beachfront development standards shall only apply to parcels meeting this definition where the primary use structure is located in one of these areas. An ancillary structure on the beach shall not constitute a parcel to be beachfront if the primary use structure is not located on the beach.
SECTION 5. Zoning Text Amendment Findings.
Pursuant to MMC Section 17.74.040(C), the City Council hereby makes the following findings to approve ZTA No. 26-002 as stated in Section 6 of this ordinance.
A. The subject zoning text amendment is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the General Plan. The proposed amendment serves to enhance the Malibu General Plan Mission Statement and protect the natural environment and rural residential character by regulating land use, discouraging “mansionization,” and preserving vistas and open areas.
B. The City Council held a public hearing, reviewed the subject zoning text amendment application for compliance with the City of Malibu General Plan and MMC, and finds that ZTA No. 26-002 is consistent with the General Plan. The City Council found that the Beachfront definition is consistent with the historical application of the MMC and LCP by the City and CCC and does not change how Malibu has applied beachfront development standards previously. Rather, it clarifies what is and is not subject to beachfront development standards which differs from non-beachfront development standards.
SECTION 6. Zoning Text Amendment.
Section 17.02.060 (Definitions) of the MMC is hereby amended to add the following new definition as follows:
“Beachfront” means that a parcel is considered beachfront when one of its parcel boundary lines is the Pacific Ocean or beach directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, the parcel does not have a zoning designation of Rural Residential, and the site of proposed development is either directly on the beach or within a low-lying shoreline area contiguous with the beach and not separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, or other elevated Ordinance No. 537
____________________
coastal landform. Parcels not meeting these criteria shall be considered non-beachfront.
Beachfront development standards shall only apply to parcels meeting this definition where the primary use structure is located in one of these areas. An ancillary structure on the beach shall not constitute a parcel to be beachfront if the primary use structure is not located on the beach.
SECTION 7. Submittal to California Coastal Commission.
The City Council hereby directs staff to submit the LCPA to the CCC per Title 14, California Code of Regulations Section 13544(c).
SECTION 8. Effective Date.
LCPA No. 26-002 and corollary ZTA No. 26-002 approved in this Ordinance shall become effective only upon final certification of the LCPA by the CCC.
SECTION 9. 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 of 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 10. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption of this ordinance.

The City Council finds that pursuant t0 the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed LCP and Malibu Municipal Code (MMC) amendment actions have been analyzed and determined to be Statutorily Exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15265 because CEQA does not apply to activities or approvals by a local government as necessary for the preparation and adoption of an LCPA for review and certification by the California Coastal Commission (CCC) as set forth in Section 21080.9 of the Public Resources Code. Accordingly, the ceitifled City of Malibu LCP constitutes a plan for use in the CCC’s regulatory program as certified under Section 21080.5 ofthe Public Resources Code.
SECTION 3. Local Coastal Program Amendment Findings.
Pursuant to LCP Local Implementation Plan (LIP) Section 19.6, the City Council hereby makes the following findings to approve LCPA No. 26-002 as stated in Section 4 ofthis ordinance.
A. Section 30251 of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act states that the scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas be considered and protected as a resource of public importance. The Section requires that coastal development must protect scenic views, be visually compatible with surroundings, and, where feasible, restore and enhance visual quality in visually degraded areas.
Highly scenic areas, including areas to and along the ocean, scenic roads, and public viewing areas, require development to be subordinate to the setting. Establishing a proper definition of “Beachfront” will ensure that only true beachfront development utilize the standards which are meant for more constrained parcels along the coast bound by the ocean and limited parcel width, and further preserve more scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas in Malibu.
B. Chapters 5 and 6 ofthe Malibu LCP Land Use Plan (LUP) incorporate the Coastal Act’s development policies, including Section 30251, to minimize impacts on scenic resources.
This includes restricting development and applying siting and design restrictions.
C. LIP Chapter 3 implements the LUP by requiring development standards applicable to beachfront and non—beachfront development. Non—beachfront development standards require increased setbacks and lower heights than beachfront development standards, as well as restrictions on impermeable coverage, limits on the volume of development above 18 feet (two- thirds calculation), and Total Development Square Footage (TDSF) limitations. This is due to nonbeachfront parcels being larger in size where those extra limitations help to preserve Malibu’s coastal resources. Historically, the City and CCC through its review of coastal development have qualified that beachfront development standards apply based on a parcel’s orientation to the coast, the zoning designation, and the location of the structure. Geologic characteristics associated with the location of the primary use structure, such as the footprint of a single-family residence as it is situated on a parcel, is a defining factor and notjust the location ofthe parcel itself. Establishing a definition of Beachfront in the LIP would further implement Chapters 5 and 6 of the LUP and Section 30251 of the Coastal Act by ensuring the appropriate application of non—beachfront Resolution NO 26-20
development standards are being applied to parcels that do not meet the eligibility components of a beachfront parcel.
SECTION 4. Local Coastal Program Amendments.
Pursuant to LIP Section 19.5(B), the LIP shall be amended as follows:
A. Amend LIP Section 2.1 (Definitions) to include a new definition as follows:
BEACHFRONT: A parcel is considered beachfront when one of its parcel boundary lines is the Pacific Ocean or beach directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, the parcel does not have a zoning designation of Rural Residential, and the site of proposed development is either directly on the beach or within a low—lying shoreline area contiguous with the beach and not separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, or other elevated coastal landform. Parcels not meeting these criteria shall be considered non-beachfront.
Beachfront development standards shall only apply to parcels meeting this definition where the primary use structure is located in one of these areas. An ancillary structure on the beach shall not constitute a parcel to be beachfront ifthe primary use structure is not located on the beach.
SECTION 5. Zoning Text Amendment Findings.
Pursuant to MMC Section 17.74.040(C). the City Council hereby makes the following findings to approve ZTA No. 26—002 as stated in Section 6 ofthis ordinance.
A. The subject zoning text amendment is consistent with the objectives, policies, gcneral land uses and programs specified in the General Plan. The proposed amendment serves to enhance the Malibu General Plan Mission Statement and protect the natural environment and rural residential character by regulating land use, discouraging “mansionization,” and preserving vistas and open areas.
B. The City Council held a public hearing, reviewed the subject zoning text amendment application for compliance with the City ofMalibu General Plan and MMC. and finds that ZTA No. 26-002 is consistent with the General Plan. The City Council found that the Beachfront definition is consistent with the historical application ofthe MMC and LCP by the City and CCC and does not change how Malibu has applied beachfront development standards previously. Rather, it clarifies what is and is not subject to beachfront development standards which differs from non—beachfront development standards.
SECTION 6. Zoning Text Amendments.
Pursuant to MMC Section 17.74.040(D). the MMC shall be amended as follows:
A. Amend MMC Section 17.02.060 (Definitions) to include a new definition as follows:
Resolution NO 26—20
Pag€ 8 of 9
“Beachfront” means that a parcel is considered beachfront when one of its parcel boundary lines is the Pacific Ocean or beach directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, the parcel does not have a zoning designation of Rural Residentialj and the site ofproposed development is either directly on the beach or within a low-lying shoreline area contiguous with the beach and not separated from the beach by a coastal bluff, cliff, hill, 0r other elevated coastal landform, Parcels not meeting these criteria shall be considered non—beachfront.
Beachfront development standards shall only apply to parcels meeting this definition where the primaiy use structure is located in one of these areas. An ancillary structure on the beach shall not constitute a parcel to be beachfront ifthe primary use structure is not located on the beach.
SECTION 7. Submittal to California Coastal Commission.
The City Council hereby directs staff to submit the LCPA to the CCC per Title l4, California Code ofRegulations Section l3544(c).
SECTION 8. Effective Date.
LCPA No. 26—002 and corollary ZTA No. 26-002 approved in this Ordinance shall become effective only upon final certification of the LCPA by the CCC.
SECTION 9. Severabilitv.
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 of the remaining portions ofthis 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 ofthe fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phases be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

DISCUSSION:
The Pacific Coast Highway Quick Build Roundabouts project (Project) has the objective of improving safety, operations, and accessibility of the highway through strategically placing and constructing “quick build” modular roundabouts at the intersections of Encinal Canyon Road and El Matador Beach along Pacific Coast Highway (PCH); providing continuous traffic flow, speed control, and improved accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists.
Project Background
Below is a timeline of key project dates
• On June 22, 2015, the Malibu’s City Council adopted the Pacific Coast Highway Safety Study, developed in partnership with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), which authorized recommendations for measures to improve safety along the PCH corridor to reduce vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian conflicts.
• On October 17, 2023, four Pepperdine University students were fatally struck by a motorist traveling 104-mph in a 45 zone.
• On November 13, 2023, the Malibu City Council declared a Local Emergency aimed at addressing the risks to public safety of dangerous, illegal, reckless, and/or distracted driving on Pacific Coast Highway in the City. The City of Malibu hosted a special public meeting of the PCH Taskforce with City, County and State elected officials, Caltrans and the LA County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) to discuss efforts to make PCH safer.
• On January 22, 2024, City staff presented the new 2024 Pacific Coast Highway Safety Report meant to track and update City’s and Caltrans’ public safety
Agenda Item # 6.A.
improvement projects on Pacific Coast Highway. The Council directed staff to perform a feasibility study of all potential calming measures on PCH that could be implemented immediately.
Following direction by the Council, Caltrans, Supervisor’s Lindsey Horvath’s Office and City staff evaluated potential improvements and identified the segment of Pacific Coast Highway in Western Malibu as experiencing high speeds and in need of an improvement that could be implemented more quickly than a traditional capital project, otherwise as rapidly deployable solution. This segment was selected for a “quick-build” project to address the ongoing safety concerns. Roundabouts were identified as the preferred "quick-build" solution. Roundabouts could be delivered using readily available and quick to construct materials, allowing traffic-calming measures to be installed rapidly while reducing vehicle speeds and improving safety. To support the project development and rapid implementation, Supervisor Horvath’s Office allocated $2,000,000 in Measure M funds to the City for the purpose of designing and constructing “quick-build” roundabouts. • On November 1, 2024, Funding Scoping & Allocation for these identified roundabouts began its processing with Metro.
• On November 25, 2024, a presentation was given to Council with updates on new and ongoing initiatives to make PCH safer, addressing critical concerns of the community which included: 1) Timeline to Implement Speed Cameras on PCH, 2) Caltrans to Install Temporary Roundabouts for Safety in Western Malibu, 3) Progress on the PCH Master Plan.
• On February 27, 2025, the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board of Directors approved funding in the amount of $2 million for the design and installation of “quick-build” roundabouts at two locations on PCH, El Matador State Beach and Encinal Canyon Road.
• On March 24, 2025, the City Council added the Pacific Coast Highway Quick Build Roundabouts Project to the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25; and authorized the execution of a Professional Services Agreements with Kimley-Horn for engineering design services for the PCH Quick Build Roundabouts Project.
• On April 9, 2025, a kickoff meeting was held to begin the design of the Pacific Coast Highway Quick Build Roundabouts Project.
Agenda Item # 6.A.
• On September 9, 2025, the City Public Works Department mailed project notification letters to nearby property owners and occupants regarding the upcoming project and Public Works Commission hearing.
• On September 15, 2025, the City Public Works Department held a virtual town hall meeting to gain community insight on the proposed project. • On September 24, 2025, the City Public Works Department presented the proposed project to the City Public Works Commission.
• On October 22, 2025, the City Public Works Department held a virtual town hall meeting to gain community insight on the proposed project. • On December 2, 2025, the City Public Works Department held a second town hall meeting in person to gain community insight on the proposed project. • On December 16, 2025, the City Planning Commission approved the project with added conditions under Resolution No. 25-78.
• On January 6, 2026, Appeal No. 26-001 was filed by a resident group. • On March 18, 2026, the City Council denied the appeal and approved CDP No. 25- 041, subject to added conditions.
• On April 28, 2026, Appeal No. A-4-MAL-26-0011 was filed by a resident group to the California Coastal Commission.
• On June 11, 2026, the California Coastal Commission unanimously denied the appeal and approved the project.
Responding to Council Direction
On March 18, 2026, staff presented the Project application before City Council in which the staff report, written reports, public testimony, and all other information in the record was reviewed and considered. Council directed staff to return with more information at a future public meeting date for determination on whether the project is to proceed forward.
Within the last several weeks, staff and Kimley Horn worked to perform the following Council-directed items:
• Conduct an evaluation of roadway performance in the context of wildfire evacuation scenarios in Malibu, California, specifically testing performance
Agenda Item # 6.A.
impacts with inclusion of the proposed pilot quick-build roundabout improvements on PCH at El Matador Beach Road and at Encinal Road.
The Wildfire Evacuation Assessment Report (Attachment 1) indicates that evacuation performance is influenced far more by regional roadway constraints than by the proposed roundabouts. It concludes that the proposed quick build roundabouts would have minimal impact on overall wildfire evacuation performance and clearance. Under conservative PSPS conditions, the amount of time it would take residents to evacuate the evacuation zone under the proposed project sees a marginal increase of 1.4% in comparison to the existing (No Project) evacuation conditions.
Agenda Item # 6.A.
It is worth noting that Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events, in which all existing traffic signals operate as all-way stops, have a greater impact on evacuation than the proposed roundabouts themselves. The study demonstrates that under the existing conditions of the highway (otherwise “No Project”), the amount of time it would take residents to evacuate the evacuation zone under PSPS conditions is increased by approximately 45 minutes.
• Develop a simulation for the following scenario under normal roundabout operations: groups of cyclist’s movement through roundabout.
A multi-modal simulation was developed and will be shown to Council during the staff presentation at the scheduled August 10, 2026, City Council meeting. The simulation was developed to evaluate how groups of cyclists interact with typical vehicular traffic under standard operating conditions.
The simulation provides a visual and analytical assessment of how groups of cyclists progress through the roundabout and illustrates the operational impacts on surrounding traffic.
The roundabouts yield-controlled design and continuous flow characteristics allow traffic to recover quickly following each cyclist movement. The simulation demonstrates that the roundabout continues to operate successfully under normal conditions while accommodating groups of cyclists.
• Develop a simulation for the following scenario under normal roundabout operations: navigation of all roadway users.
A multi-modal simulation was developed and will be shown to Council during the staff presentation at the scheduled August 10, 2026, City Council meeting. The simulation analyzed the movements and circulation through the roundabouts of various users such as cyclists, pedestrians, and motorists.
Agenda Item # 6.A.
Motorists approaching the roundabout reduce speed, assess circulating traffic, yield as required, enter when an acceptable gap is available, travel through the circulatory roadway, and exit at their intended destination. Pedestrians use the designated crosswalks and splitter islands to cross each approach in two stages, while the drivers yield where required. Cyclists are shown navigating the roundabout in accordance with FHWA accepted operating practices, traveling as part of the traffic stream.
The simulation highlights safe gap acceptance, yielding behavior, lane discipline, and continuous traffic circulation. Demonstrating how the roundabout accommodates multiple modes of transportation while maintaining efficient traffic operations and minimizing delays.
• Develop a simulation for the following scenario under normal roundabout operations: turn templates and access for vehicles (waste management, fire, ambulance, mail services, error) to the private driveways – mobility movement.
A vehicle-turning simulation was developed and will be shown to Council during the staff presentation at the scheduled August 10, 2026 City Council meeting. The simulation analyzed vehicle turning movements, circulation through the roundabouts, and access to adjacent private driveways to confirm that mobility would be maintained.
The simulation included turn templates for a range of vehicle types, including passenger vehicles, waste collection trucks, fire apparatus, ambulances, mail delivery vehicles, and other large service vehicles. The simulation evaluated each vehicle's ability to safely navigate the roundabouts while maintaining access to private driveways and minimizing conflicts with opposing traffic.
The simulation demonstrated that the proposed roundabout design accommodates the anticipated vehicle types and preserves access to properties along the corridor while providing the intended traffic-calming benefits, operational efficiency, emergency access, and roadway safety.
Options Forward
The following options are before Council for consideration, unless otherwise determined:
1. Proceed with the construction of the quick build roundabouts at the intersections of El Matador State Beach and Encinal Canyon Road along PCH.
Agenda Item # 6.A.
Due to the constraints of LA County Metro Measure M funds, the funding source cannot support the construction of “temporary” or otherwise safety improvements intended to be removed. Should Council direct staff to proceed with this option, the roundabouts would remain indefinite unless replaced with permanent improvements.
The direction to staff under this option would also include revising the City’s Coastal Development Permit, revising Caltrans documents and permits, and working with the design consultant Kimley-Horn to modify the plan set as necessary. The additional work required under this option would exceed the available fund of $2 million, and staff estimate it would require an additional six to eight months to complete pushing project completion to Summer 2027. Staff estimate the current project funding gap to be approximately $500,000. Should Council direct staff to proceed with this option, staff would return to request the funding when there is a more refined cost estimate and identified funding source. The additional funding could come from Measure M, speed camera revenues, or another source.
Project Estimate
Design $700,000
Construction $1,800,000
Project Total Costs $2,500,000
2. Proceed with the construction of one quick build roundabout at the intersection of El Matador State Beach along PCH.
If Council wishes to proceed with some traffic calming measures in this area, Council could direct staff to pursue the implementation of one quick build roundabout at El Matador State Beach. This option would still require staff work to remove the “temporary” aspects of the current project permitting but would reduce the overall project costs and eliminate concerns regarding driveways entering and exiting at the Encinal Canyon location.
The direction to staff under this option would also include revising the City’s Coastal Development Permit, revising Caltrans documents and permits, and modifying the plan set as necessary. The additional work required under this option is supported by the available fund of $2 million and requires an additional 6 months to complete.
Project Estimate
Design $600,000
Construction $1,000,000
Agenda Item # 6.A.
Project Total Costs $1,600,000
3. Place a hold on the project and remove it from the City’s Capital Improvement Program at this time. With Council guidance, should there be future consideration for roundabouts at these locations, the following project may be reactivated.
The direction to staff under this option would also include submitting reimbursement requests to Metro for the design costs incurred and withdrawing from the remainder of the approved project scope. It should be noted that if this is Council’s direction, the funds provided by Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath’s Office were applied to and approved solely for the design and construction of quick-build roundabouts. If this scope is no longer pursued, the remainder of funds are not approved for other use or allocation to other project scopes; and are required to be returned to Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath’s Office to be considered against other regional transportation priorities.
Project Estimate
Design $464,356
Construction $0
Project Total Costs $464,356
Staff is seeking Council direction on how to proceed with the project. Should Council approve this project in either options 1 or 2, staff anticipates awarding a construction contract in Spring 2027 with a construction completion date of Summer 2027. However, seeking a modified or new Coastal Development Permit may subject the project to another round of appeals, which could further delay project implementation and increase project costs.

Subject: Wildfire Evacuation Assessment – Pilot Quick-Build Roundabouts, Malibu, California Date: June 26, 2026
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (“Kimley-Horn” or the “Consultant”) is tasked to conduct a wildfire evacuation assessment for the proposed Pilot Quick Build Roundabout project (“Project” or “proposed Project”). This memorandum provides an assessment under existing and with Project conditions and impacts to roadway capacity and clearance times under wildfire evacuation scenarios.
Introduction and Purpose
This document presents an evaluation of roadway performance in the context of wildfire evacuation scenarios in Malibu, California, specifically testing performance impacts with inclusion of the proposed pilot quick-build roundabout improvements on Pacific Coast Highway at El Matador Beach Road and at Encinal Road. The objective of this evaluation is to assess the immediate Project-level effects on evacuation performance. The proposed improvements are single lane roundabouts that maintain one entry travel lanes and one exit travel lanes per direction.
Methodology
This assessment applies evacuation modeling to evaluate the Project’s impact on roadway performance during wildfire scenarios and impacts on the broader regional roadway network. To this end, Kimley-Horn has utilized AEGIS1 (Adaptative Evacuation and Geographic Intelligence System), a tool specifically designed for comparative evacuation analysis using multiple national and localized datasets, geospatial analysis software, and advanced modeling algorithms to create dynamic assignment, agent-based models capable of capturing the detailed interactions between vehicles and operational statistics of the roadway network, second-by-second throughout the length of the evacuation. Analysis under AEGIS is conducted by collecting local data, developing hazard scenarios and modeling assumptions based on local conditions, modelling the selected scenarios within the AEGIS software, and analyzing results to assess operational impacts directly tied to the Project.
Scenario Description
This assessment analyzes an evacuation scenario based on the Woolsey Fire (2018) to stress test the roadway network in Malibu. The Woolsey Fire was a multi-day event which began south of Simi Valley and rapidly burned through Ventura and Los Angeles Counites. The fire event occurred concurrently with the Hill Fire, an earlier ignition in Ventura County. Impacts of the Hill Fire caused closures on PCH in the west and northbound direction, and evacuees were routed east and southbound. To assess performance on the 1 Kimley-Horn’s proprietary evacuation analysis tool designed to analyze custom evacuation scenarios

study intersections on PCH west of the City of Malibu, this study analyzes an alternative scenario considering the impacts of the Woolsey Fire in isolationwithout Hill Fire-related PCH closures, and evacuees are directed west and north on PCH toward Ventura County. This alternative scenario was selected to represent severe wildfire evacuation conditions, including rapid fire progression into Malibu, broad mandatory evacuation messaging, constrained evacuation routes, and significant westbound PCH delays to stress test the Project.
Evacuation events are inherently stochastic, influenced by many variables from human behavior to the sudden onset of the event making it impractical to evaluate every possible scenario. Given this complexity, it is essential to introduce assumptions to create a manageable framework to allow the model to run specific scenarios and derive meaningful insights and conclusions that can guide further detailed investigations and refinements of the models. This analysis reflects a single potential scenario developed based on assumptions informed by historical events, as well as input received from City Council and discussions with City staff, and considers worst-case evacuation demand conditions.
This methodological process is supported by recent court decisions upholding that evaluating a single evacuation scenario can be as valid as any other, given the countless variables that shape real-world outcomes. In League to Save Lake Tahoe Mountain v. County of Placer (2022), the court recognized that with factors such as human behavior, timing, and fire dynamics, it is impossible to model every potential condition. Instead, selecting a representative scenario and metric such as total time to exit provides a manageable framework that provides meaningful analysis.
This analysis does not attempt to recreate the actual Woolsey Fire evacuation event or traffic-control strategy, but instead is a counterfactual scenario applying Woolsey-based evacuation demand and behavior to a westbound PCH routing scenario to evaluate the proposed project effects at El Matador Beach Road and at Encinal Road. Any analysis results are intended as a planning level guide to compare roadway configuration conditions and assess specific operations at the Project site, rather than inform general operational strategy utilized by law enforcement in the event of an evacuation.
Modeling Assumptions
When undertaking this review, reasonable assumptions were made to facilitate the analysis and allow for more streamlined and focused research. All modeling assumptions are described below, based on the Review of Woolsey Fire Response by Malibu City Management2 . Modeling scenarios, reflecting one wildfire
scenario across four different roadway condition scenarios are described in Table 1. The study area spans the City of Malibu jurisdiction limits to the “PCH lane reduction”, the location where the PCH reduces from 2-lanes to 1-lane in each direction. The study area, proposed roundabout locations, and signalized intersections located on the PCH within the City limits are shown in Figure 1. For the purposes of this study, evacuees are considered “cleared” and evacuated once able to pass the PCH lane reduction. Detailed imagery of the Project site and signalized intersection locations are included in Appendix A.
To calculate evacuee demand on PCH, US Census blocks3 within the study area were assessed to determine overlap with the Woolsey Fire burn perimeter and regional highway access.

within the City of Malibu and zones intersecting the burn perimeter north of the City without direct access to US-101 were selected as evacuation zones within this study, shown in Figure 2.Under the evacuation scenario the number of vehicles on the roadway network during an evacuation was determined using household and vehicle ownership information obtained directly from socioeconomic data in US Census estimates under the most recent 2024 American Community Survey 5-Year dataset.
Based on observed evacuation behavior during the Woolsey Fire, evacuee departures are not assumed to be simultaneous but instead follow an S-curve pattern, with departures starting gradually, peaking shortly after notification, and tapering over time. For this analysis, the evacuation response was modeled using an S-curve beginning at approximately 7:00 AM, consistent with the initial evacuation alert, and extending over an estimated eight-hour period, reflecting input from observed conditions including evolving notifications, a citywide evacuation order, and documented delays, confusion, and staggered response behavior. The 2026 roadway network reflects existing conditions, with capacities and speed limit data derived from OpenStreetMaps4 data.
The modeling approach applied a 20 percent reduction to roadway capacity to account for evacuees departing before the explicit evacuation notice and disruptions to typical travel patterns during wildfire conditions. The Woolsey Fire evacuation did not occur under normal traffic operating conditions: the City’s alert log documented traffic signal outages at PCH and Coastline by 7:25 AM, subsequent PCH closures and lane-control changes, and an urgent evacuation reinforcement at 12:29 PM. Reports began emerging in the early afternoon of traffic backups, instances of delayed or noncompliant evacuation response, and impacts associated with constrained route availability.
Households without access to a personal vehicle would inherently depend on external support to evacuate. Additionally, it is presumed that employment centers will be unoccupied during the time of evacuation for both scenarios. Under occupied circumstances, it is assumed employment centers would undertake the responsibility of facilitating the evacuation of employees lacking personal vehicles, to the extent that employees would be at their place of work during an evacuation event.

AEGIS, A Kimley-Horn platform, was used to develop an evacuation model to simulate the evacuation scenario. The modeling platform is capable of producing a range of metrics to assess network performance during an evacuation event. Several key metrics include roadway vehicle demand, queueing, experienced delay, and clearance or evacuation times. Key results are summarized below. A data dashboard with interactive maps and animations of model results are accessible here, and in Appendix A.
Average Vehicle Delay
Average delay during the peak hour of the evacuation, when vehicle demand is at its greatest, grew by 4.2 and 2.9 seconds at Encincal and El Matador Beach Roads respectively with the addition of the Project under no PSPS conditions. With PSPS active, the delay grew by 4.9 and 2.1 seconds respectively. It should be noted that the side-street delay decreased with the addition of the Project, while PCH delay increased. Delay in seconds per vehicle experienced at both El Matador Beach Rd and Encinal Rd are shown in Table 2 below.

Guernsey Ave 25.00 51.12 +26.12
Trancas Canyon Rd 15.52 31.56 +16.04
Signalized intersections show varying degrees of delay increase and decrease. Decreases in delay at signalized intersections may be associated to lower side street vehicle utilization as a component of the model’s rerouting behavior in response to travel time changes with the inclusion of PSPS conditions, reflected in larger overall increases in delay at downstream intersections such as Encinal as a result of vehicle rerouting.
It is important to note that while the worst approach at an intersection may show improvements to delay under these conditions, the overall performance of the intersection may decrease, as reflected by increases to the overall time taken to evacuate (discussed below). However, the delay is shifted from primarily being experienced at the side street, to across all approaches.

Pilot Quick-Build Roundabouts June 26, 2026
Vehicle Queueing
The maximum queue length observed during the evacuation increased by approximately 25 feet at Encinal (about one vehicle), with no change at El Matador Beach under no-PSPS conditions. Under PSPS conditions, the queue at Encinal increased by approximately 118 feet (about 4–5 vehicles), while conditions at El Matador Beach remained unchanged.
The lack of change at El Matador Beach reflects minimal conflicting demand at that location, whereas increases at Encinal are attributable to existing local demand combined with downstream congestion near the convergence of canyon roadways with PCH. Maximum queue lengths at both locations are summarized in Table 4.
Table 4 – Maximum Vehicle Queue (feet) during Evacuation Intersection
Maximum Vehicle Queue during Evacuation
No Project without PSPS Plus Project without PSPS No Project with PSP Plus Project with PSPS El Matador
Beach Rd 132 ft 157 ft (+25 ft) 196 ft 314 ft (+118 ft) Encinal Rd 25 ft 25 ft 25 ft 25 ft
Queue lengths at the 10 signalized intersections between Malibu Canyon Rd and Trancas Canyon Rd under PSPS conditions generally grew, with the highest increases between Trancas Canyon Rd and Guernsey Rd, where the dual signalized intersections converting to all-way stops introduces queues stretching the storage length of the roadways between them. Queue lengths did not increase with Project, as queues tied to the roundabouts did not extend beyond their localized impacts.
Systemwide Clearance Time and Average Time to Clear
The amount of time it takes residents to evacuate the evacuation zone is referred to as “clearance time”.
This metric measures the time taken from the initial evacuation notice until the full evacuation impact zone is able to “clear”, or pass a selected boundary, including the departure period and travel time until the final evacuee is able to pass the boundary. For the purposes of this analysis, evacuees are considered cleared once reaching the PCH lane reduction, where westbound lanes are reduced from 2-lane to 1-lane. The addition of the Project under no PSPS conditions increases the system-wide clearance time by 8 minutes (0.8%). Under PSPS conditions with Project between Malibu Canyon Rd and Trancas Rd, system-wide clearance time increases by 14 minutes (1.4%). The amount of time it takes each scenario to completely evacuate and clear past the PCH lane reduction is presented in Table 6 below.

Clearance Time +8 Minutes (0.82%) +14 Minutes (1.38%)
The average time per evacuee to clear measures the time on average that each individual evacuee takes to cross the clearance boundary (PCH lane reduction) from the moment they left their home location. The average time taken from departure to clearing the PCH lane reduction for a single vehicle increased by 19 seconds (0.12%) with the addition of the Project under no PSPS conditions. Under PSPS conditions, the Project increases individual vehicle evacuation time by 21 seconds (0.16%). The average time to clear for a single evacuee is shown in Table 7.

FISCAL IMPACT:
An additional appropriation is required. Funding for this project is included in the Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 in Account No. 310-9066-5100 (PCH Signal Synchronization System Improvements Project).
This project is funded through Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) Measure R and Measure M allocations in the amount of $19,100,000. Additionally, this project was impacted by the Palisades Fire, City staff are working with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for potential reimbursement up to $246,000.
The project expenses, design, construction, and contingencies include a total amount of $20,596,000; this amount incorporates the costs associated with PCH Signal Synchronization, Safety Adaptive, Speed Enforcement Systems, in addition to other safety enhancements. The estimated budget for the Speed Enforcement Systems is currently $2.1 million. However, the current funds are insufficient to complete the installation of the speed enforcement systems and its components; an additional $1,250,000 is required to complete the project.

Agenda Item # 7.A.
The appropriation in the amount of $1,250,000 will support:
• Construction costs in the amount of $900,000 to complete power source connections to operate the speed enforcement systems. Change Order to GMZ to perform work will only occur if an appropriation is approved. • Amendment to Kimley-Horn's agreement in the amount of $108,000 for support services. Additional services were needed from Kimley-Horn to modify the design plans and perform structural calculations to determine if the equipment provided could sustain the loads now required. This work was needed to obtain Caltrans’ approval and issuance of the encroachment permit.
• SCE contracts and invoices for energization (approx. $75,000) until transfer to a new account code takes place. To energize the systems, SCE contracts and invoices for new service connections will need to be paid and range in varying amounts depending on region and work (typical for new service processes). • The remainder of money is not anticipated to be expended, rather it's to provide unforeseen difficulty support.
Staff are requesting to utilize the General Fund to offset the funding shortfall to successfully complete the installation of the speed enforcement systems. The Speed Enforcement System is being installed per Senate Bill 1297, which states under section 22436, "Revenues derived from any program utilizing a speed safety system for speed limit enforcement shall first be used to recover program costs. Program costs include, but are not limited to, the installation of speed safety systems, the adjudication of violations, and reporting requirements as specified in this section". The appropriation of $1,250,000 is reimbursable to the city and sees first recovery from the revenues of the program.
Seeking additional allocations from Metro would take approximately 12 months, in which all work would need to halt until an approval is received. This timeframe would greatly impact the project by significantly reducing city’s participation in the program as its sunset date per the bill is January 1, 2032. This delay would also result in the City not receiving estimated revenues of $4.5 Million.
Therefore, staff recommend an appropriation to this project in the amount of $1,250,000 from the General Fund Undesignated Reserves to Account No. 310-9066-5100 (PCH Signal Synchronization System Improvements Project) for a total revised project budget of $20,596,000.
The projected General Fund Undesignated Reserve balance as of July 1, 2026, is $51.2 million.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION: This item supports the City’s 2025-2028 Strategic Plan Goal 4: Improve Public Safety.
Agenda Item # 7.A.
Goal 4: Improve Public Safety
Objective 4.1: Reduce injury and fatal collisions on Pacific Coast Highway Strategy: Installation of speed enforcement systems
DISCUSSION: The Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) Signal Synchronization System Improvements project (Project) has the objective of enhancing and improving traffic signals throughout the Malibu PCH corridor; which reduces congestion, regulates vehicle speeds, improves intersection performance, and enhances safety for motorists, pedestrians, cyclists, and transit users. Spanning approximately eight miles from Topanga Canyon Boulevard to John Tyler Drive, the project includes: upgrading traffic signal hardware and controllers, installing fiber optic communication infrastructure, deploying CCTV cameras, establishing real-time communication with Caltrans District 7 Traffic Management Center, implementing coordinated signal timing and adaptive safety technology.
On February 27, 2023, the City Council approved a construction agreement with GMZ Engineering, Inc. for the PCH Signal Synchronization System Improvements Project.
Following the tragic October 2023 fatal crash involving four Pepperdine University students, the City expanded the project scope to include the installation of speed enforcement systems along PCH to address the growing concerns of safety on PCH. Staff were directed to proceed with a layout and design of a speed enforcement system.
On September 23, 2024, the City Council approved Amendment No. 5 to the Professional Services Agreement with Kimley-Horn for the PCH Signal Synchronization System Improvements Project; which included assistance to prepare a plan for the placement and design of the speed enforcement systems.
On June 16, 2025, the City of Malibu Planning Commission approved Coastal Development Permit No. 25-024 to install speed enforcement systems at five regions along PCH.
On April 13, 2026, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Blue Line Solutions-CA, LLC (Blue Line) to implement and operate a Speed Safety Camera System Pilot Program. After which, it was discovered that the initial design required modification to be in alignment with the performance ability of the vendor’s camera system and Senate Bill 1297. The level of construction effort needed to address these design modifications and successfully install and operate the systems was much more extensive than the available project budget. Most specifically, it was discovered that hard power connections were required for all poles - the cost of supplying hard power connections is the bulk of the appropriation needed.
Agenda Item # 7.A.
On August 5, 2026, the PCH Signal Synchronization project was presented to the Administrative and Finance (A&F) Subcommittee. The recommendation of the A&F Subcommittee meeting will be provided to Council in the verbal report of the PCH Signal Synchronization System Improvements Project during the scheduled August 10, 2026, Council meeting.
Program Implementation Update
In addition to the progress on the infrastructure needed for the Speed Enforcement System, Public Safety staff are making significant progress on the full program implementation. The staff needed to implement the program are in place and are preparing to be trained on Blue Line Solution’s web-based platform used for reviewing and managing citations. Staff are also finalizing the required processes for providing reduced citation fines and community service options for individuals who can verify indigent status. Since the City does not currently have a means of offering community service, staff are establishing an educational option, which the City of Oakland (another Pilot city) has also done to meet this requirement. Staff plan to enter into a license agreement with The Emily Shane Foundation to use the movie 21 Miles in Malibu as the core component of an educational option.
Senate Bill 1297 also requires that a public education campaign be implemented at least 30 days prior to activating the Speed Safety System. Staff are currently working with Blue Line Solutions to develop a variety of outreach strategies to inform both Malibu residents and visitors about the program. Outreach will include comprehensive social media campaigns, paid advertising, press releases, and inserts to be included in the Warning Notices that will be issued in the first 60 days. A launch event is also being planned. It is anticipated that the public education campaign will begin the first week of August 2026.
Below are the program implementation milestones:
• Public Information and Education – The City will provide information about the Speed Safety System, including explanation of how it works, its implementation schedule, and the program's safety goals.
• Warning Period – A 60-day warning period will begin when the system is activated.
During this period, motorists who exceed the speed threshold will receive warnings only.
• Enforcement Phase – After the warning period concludes, qualifying speeding violations will result in civil penalties.

Date prepared: April 13, 2026 Meeting date: August 10, 2026 Subject: Review of Application Process for Additional Wastewater Allocation in the Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility (CCWTF)
RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1) Authorize the development of an application process for properties seeking additional wastewater allocation within Civic Center Wastewater Treatment Facility Phase One; and 2) Provide direction to staff on the development of such process.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.
Should upgrades to the CCWTF be required, funding would be provided through the existing assessment district, which may require modification. Any costs associated with property-specific improvements or revisions would be the responsibility of the requesting property owner.
STRATEGIC PRIORITY: This item supports the City’s 2025 -2028 Strategic Plan Goal 3:
Advance Infrastructure Resilience.
DISCUSSION: On November 5, 2009, the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) approved a resolution prohibiting the use of septic systems in the Malibu Civic Center Area. On September 21, 2010, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) approved the action taken by the RWQCB, thereby amending the State Basin Plan. The plan established certain dates by which properties in the Civic Center area were required to cease discharge and provided for a municipally owned wastewater treatment facility to be constructed.

Item
7.B.
Agenda Item # 7.B.
On June 27, 2011, the Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City, the RWQCB and the SWRCB regarding the implementation of the Basin Plan Amendment for the Malibu Civic Center Area Prohibition. The MOU was amended in December 2014 and again in February 2017 to extend certain dates. Under the amended MOU, properties in Phase One of the Prohibition Area (primarily the commercial core of the Civic Center) were required to connect to a centralized wastewater treatment facility by September 30, 2018. All of the developed properties in Phase One were successfully connected by the mandated date, and the facility is completely operational.
The CCWTF was designed with a modular approach, allowing additional equipment and infrastructure required for future Phases Two and Three to be incorporated as needed.
The CCWTF was originally designed with a maximum day flow capacity of 276,000 gallons per day (gpd) and a maximum day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) loading capacity of 668 pounds per day (lb/day). The projected Phase One buildout values assumed that vacant Phase One parcels would ultimately be developed in accordance with the assumptions outlined in the Assessment District (AD) Report, including projected future flows and loading conditions. Based on these projections, the estimated Phase One buildout maximum day flow would be approximately 215,439 gpd, utilizing approximately 78 percent of the facility’s current hydraulic capacity. However, the projected Phase One buildout maximum day BOD loading would be approximately 665 lb/day, utilizing approximately 99 percent of the facility’s current BOD treatment capacity. Therefore, it is assumed that the CCWTF has no excess treatment capacity within the existing Phase One facilities if all vacant Phase One parcels are fully developed as described in the AD Report.
If Phase One property owners seek to increase their wastewater flows or organic loading beyond the assumptions identified in the AD Report, the City would need to carefully evaluate the impacts on the treatment facility’s capacity. This evaluation would include quantifying the additional BOD loading and hydraulic flows, assessing hydraulic and process impacts to the various treatment systems, and identifying any necessary facility upgrades required to accommodate the proposed increases.
The assigned wastewater allocations per the Modified Engineer’s Report for each parcel are critical to ensuring that the wastewater treatment plant operates efficiently, remains within its permitted capacity, and complies with applicable regulatory standards.
During the Phase One implementation process, City staff conducted numerous stakeholder meetings. Property owners were provided with the opportunity at that time to negotiate and agree on wastewater allocation based on existing developments and anticipated future development plans.
The City received a land development application from the property owners of 3700 La Paz Lane (APN 4458-022-025) to construct a new single-family residence, a second-unit
Agenda Item # 7.B.
guest house, and twenty proposed multi-family residential units on the parcel. The property is zoned Community Commercial. Per the Modified Engineer’s Report (2015), this parcel has existing wastewater allocation of 1,469.3125 gpd. As proposed, the development has a total projected demand of 4,900 gpd. This demand exceeds the parcel’s assigned wastewater allocation by 3,430.6865 gpd. As part of the review of the land development application, the applicant inquired about the potential availability of additional wastewater allocation for future development within the Phase One boundary.
To evaluate if the process of allowing Phase One parcels to request additional allocations is feasible, staff reviewed the data demonstrating at what capacity the plant currently operates. At present, CCWTF operates below its permitted maximum capacity. On the highest recorded operating day, the plant has operated at approximately 47% of its maximum day design capacity.
However, this operating margin is largely attributable to the fact that Phase One has undeveloped parcels which are not connected to the treatment plant using their allocated wastewater flows. As additional parcels develop and connect using their assigned allocations, this operational buffer will decrease proportionally.
While sufficient hydraulic capacity currently exists within the treatment plant, the wastewater allocation framework established under Phase One was designed to manage long-term buildout conditions and ensure equitable distribution of capacity among properties within the service area.
Staff is seeking Council direction to develop and implement an application process for property owners within the Phase One boundary to request additional wastewater allocation. If approved, the following steps will be implemented:
1. Staff will conduct public outreach to notify property owners within Phase One of the additional wastewater allocation request procedure.
2. Staff will create and distribute the application form for a 60-day period.
3. The submitted requests will be evaluated using engineering, operational, and regulatory criteria to determine whether additional allocation capacity may be available within Phase One. If it is determined that additional capacity can be accommodated within Phase One, modifications to Assessment District will be required.
4. If evaluation results reveal that upgrades to the Treatment Plant are necessary and feasible, staff will report back to Council to seek further direction.

PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS The plans and specifications which describe the general nature, location, and extent of the improvements for the Assessment District are on file in the Offices of the City Clerk and the Director of Public Works of the City and are referenced herein and incorporated as if attached and a part of this Modified Report. A map showing the general location and improvements for the Assessment District is attached as Exhibit A. A general description of the improvements is set forth below.
DESCRIPTION OF WORKS OF IMPROVEMENT
The works of improvements to be financed by the Assessment District will include the design and construction of the wastewater treatment plant, wastewater collection and recycled water distribution system, and a recycled water injection system required pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Phased Implementation of Basin Plan Amendment Prohibiting OnSite Wastewater Disposal Systems in the Malibu Civic Center Area entered into by and between the City of Malibu, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles, and the State Water Resources Control Board (the "MOU"). It should be noted that the purpose of the recycled water distribution and injection system is the disposal of treated wastewater. The Assessment District will also finance the acquisition of the land on which the wastewater treatment plant will be located.

PART II
IMPROVEMENT COST ESTIMATE
This Part presents the estimated cost of the works of improvements. Table II-1 shows the gross and net cost of the works of improvements. There are three adjustments made to the gross cost of the works of improvements to arrive at the net assessable costs. First, pursuant to Article XIII D, Section l(a) of the California Constitution, the cost of the works of improvements necessary to serve only those parcels within the Assessment District is separated from the total cost of the works of improvements. In the case of the works of improvements for the Assessment District, the wastewater collection system and recycled water distribution system have been oversized in order to accommodate potential wastewater flow and recycled water attributable to property located in future phases identified in and subject to the provisions of the MOU. This Assessment District will not pay for the cost of this oversizing. Second, excess County of Los Angeles sewer project funds in the amount of $1,172,652 are applied as a credit against the estimated design cost of the works of improvements. Third, the estimated cost of the works of improvement are adjusted to reflect the funding of a portion of the design costs by Community Facilities District No. 2012-1 of the City of Malibu ("CPD 2012-1"). In January of 2013, CPD 2012-1 issued $6,500,000 in bonds to fund $5,000,000 of design costs. The Assessment District will pay off and refinance the CPD No. 2012-1 indebtedness. Therefore, the cost of the retirement of the CPD 2012-1 indebtedness ($6,346,324.27) is added and the amount of the design costs funded by CPD 2012-1 ($5,000,000) are deducted from the cost of the works of improvements. Fourth, the estimated cost of the works of improvement are further adjusted to reflect the funding of a portion of the construction costs by a grant through the Water Recycling Funding Program of the California State Water Resources Control Board.
The estimated assessment amount corresponding to the financing of the net cost of the works of improvements is shown in Table II-2. The net improvement costs will be assessed to each property in accordance with the Method of Assessment set forth in Exhibit B. The Assessment Roll identifying each parcel of real property within the Assessment District and its assessment is included in Exhibit C. As with the description of the improvements, the improvement costs are preliminary estimates.

A. Background
METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
Assessment District jurisprudence requires that assessments levied pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 be based on the "special benefit" properties receive from the Works of Improvement. However, the law does not specify the method or formula that should be used to apportion the assessments in Assessment District proceedings. In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit confen-ed on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
"Special benefit" is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer's Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011).
Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the Works of Improvement will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.
All costs associated with the financing of the works of improvement are to be fairly distributed among the lots and parcels within the District based upon the special benefit received by each lot and parcel. Additionally, in compliance with the California Constitution Article XIIID Section 4, each parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred upon it. In sum, each of the properties benefiting from the works of improvement proposed for Assessment District No. 2015-1 will be assessed only for the special benefit conferred on such properties.
The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties.
For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of David Taussig & Associates, Inc. as the Modified Engineer's Report
City of Malibu Assessment District No. 2015-1

Assessment Engineer.
The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer's Report for consideration at the public hearing. The final authority and action rests with the City after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing and the tabulation of the assessment ballots. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received. Ballot tabulation will then be completed, and if a majority of ballots received, weighted by assessment amount, do not protest the assessment, then the City may establish the Assessment District.

The special benefit conferred to each of the properties within the Assessment District is the ability to discharge wastewater flows to a centralized wastewater treatment facility in compliance with the Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Phased Implementation of Basin Plan Amendment Prohibiting On-Site Wastewater Disposal Systems in the Malibu Civic Center Area entered into by and between the City of Malibu, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles, and the State Water Resources Control Board (the "MOU"). Resolution R4-2009-007 adopted by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles Region (the "Basin Plan Amendment") prohibits on-site wastewater disposal systems in the City of Malibu Civic Center Area, and the MOU requires the construction of the works of improvements in lieu of on-site wastewater disposal systems. In addition to the wastewater treatment plant, the Assessment District will install wastewater collection and recycled water distribution facilities in existing public streets and/or public easements as shown in Exhibit A; the cost of connecting to these facilities will be borne separately by each property owner and will not be installed by the Assessment District. The Assessment District will provide each property the right to discharge up to the wastewater flow and load calculated in Section C.3 below.
The works of improvements constitute the least expensive facilities with a factor of safety that can be built to serve the properties within the Assessment District. The treatment plant will be comprised of the minimum sized treatment processing units, headworks, and lab facilities as determined by the design engineer and in accordance with customary and prudent engineering design standards. Specifically, the treatment plant will consist of two (2) modules; two modules are required in order that one may be taken off line for maintenance and/or repair. The treatment plant site to be acquired is similarly the least expensive available parcel of land that is in a suitable location from an engineering standpoint. In contrast to the wastewater treatment plant, the wastewater collection and recycled water distribution lines (i.e., the diameters of certain of the collection and distribution pipes) will be constructed to accommodate wastewater flows and recycled water from properties located outside the Assessment District that are also the subject of the MOU and may be required to discharge wastewater flows off-site for treatment. The cost associated with this oversizing of the wastewater collection and recycled water distribution lines is therefore not assessed to the properties within the Assessment District.
C. Apportionment Methodology
The extent of the special benefit conferred to the parcels in the Assessment District is quantified in terms of wastewater flow and organic load. The cost of the wastewater collection and recycled Modified Engineer's Report
City of Malibu Assessment District No. 2015-1

water distribution and injection system is allocated in proportion to wastewater flow as it is the primary determinant in the design and cost of the collection and distribution facilities. The cost of the wastewater treatment plant is allocated in proportion to organic load as it is the primary determinant in the design and cost of the treatment facilities. With certain exceptions discussed in Section D below, wastewater flows and organic load for developed parcels are based on actual building square footage and uses. Wastewater flows and organic load for vacant parcels are based on (i) the maximum floor area ratio permitted by the City (0.15) and the anticipated mix of uses or (ii) development plans submitted to the City, including wastewater analyses for such development plans, if any. Standard wastewater flow rates and organic load concentrations are discussed in Sections C.l and C.2 below. Special cases and/or exceptions are discussed in Section C.3 below.
1. Wastewater Flow Rates
Non-residential wastewater flow rate assumptions are 0.0216 gallons per day for retail,
0.6750 gallons per day for restaurant, and 0.0625 gallons per day per building square foot for office. Wastewater flow rate assumptions for church uses are 3.0000 gallons per day per seat2
• Wastewater flow rate assumptions for school uses are 11.0000 gallons per day per student and faculty/staff3
. The wastewater flow rate assumption for retail use is an average and is calculated using a factor of ten (10.0000) gallons per day per employee, two (2.0000) gallons per day per parking space, one (1.0000) parking space per employee, and a range of building square feet per employee of 500 to 6254 • The
wastewater flow rate assumption for restaurant is calculated by applying a factor of nine (9 .0000) gallons per day per customer5 to an existing restaurant located in the City of Malibu which averages three hundred (300) customer per day and occupies four thousand (4,000) building square feet. The wastewater flow rate assumption for office is calculated using an average of two hundred eight (208) building square feet per employee and a factor of thirteen (13.0000) gallons per day per employee 6.
Residential wastewater flow rate assumptions are 366 gallons per day for a typical singlefamily home and 700 gallons per day for large, estate-sized homes. The wastewater flow rate for the typical single family home is calculated assuming a household size, including housekeepers and visitors, of 5.2, a wastewater flow per capita of 69 gallons per day7 ,
and a 1.02 infiltration rate. The wastewater flow rate for large, estate-sized homes is based on the proposed wastewater treatment system design prepared in connection with the development plans for Assessor's Parcel Number 4458-018-019. 2 The source for the flow rate per church seat is United States Environmental Protection Agency Publication 625/R00/008-Chapter 3. 3 The source for the flow rate per school seat is United States Environmental Protection Agency Publication 625/R00/008-Chapter 3. 4 The source for the flow rate per employee and per parking space is Design of Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants, Fifth Edition.

2. Organic Load Concentration
Organic load concentration, a measure of the strength of the wastewater to be treated, is used to design the treatment process. Residential organic load concentrations are estimated to be 313 milligrams per liter ("mg/L") using per capita BOD loads from EPA guidelines8
. Non-residential organic load concentrations were estimated to be similar to residential concentrations at 313 mg/L for retail, office, school, and church uses. For restaurants the BOD concentration was estimated to be 544 mg/L based on wastewater sampling conducted at shopping centers within the Civic Center area of the City. Total organic load is expressed in pounds per day and is calculated using the following formula: wastewater flow x organic load concentration x 8.345 / 1,000,0009• The specific wastewater flow and treatment plant load calculations for each parcel are discussed in Section C.3 below.
3. Wastewater Flow and Load Calculations
The wastewater flow and load estimates are summarized below. The terms BSF, GPD and PPD mean, respectively, building square feet, gallons per day and pounds per day. • 4452-011-029 (Assessment No. 1)

TO: Mayors, Council Members, City Clerks, and City Managers RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATES AND ALTERNATES
League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo, Sept. 23-25, 2026 Anaheim Convention Center
Every year, the League of California Cities convenes a member-driven General Assembly at the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. The General Assembly is an important opportunity where city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy.
Taking place on Friday, Sept. 25, 2026 the General Assembly is comprised of voting delegates appointed by each member city; every city has one voting delegate. Your appointed voting delegate plays an important role during the General Assembly by representing your city and voting on resolutions.
To cast a vote during the General Assembly, your city must designate a voting delegate and up to two alternate voting delegates, one of whom may vote if the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity. Voting delegates may either be an elected or appointed official.
Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council. Please note that designating the voting delegate and alternates must be done by city council action and cannot be accomplished by individual action of the mayor or city manager alone.
Following council action, please submit your city’s delegates through the online submission portal by Tuesday, Sept. 1, 2026. When completing the Voting Delegate submission form, you will be asked to attest that council action was taken. You will need to be signed in to your My Cal Cities account when submitting the form.
Submitting your voting delegate form by the deadline will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference and provide pre-conference communications with voting delegates.
Conference Registration Required. The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration opens June 2.
For a city to cast a vote, one voter must be present at the General Assembly and in possession of the voting delegate card and voting tool. Voting delegates and Council Action Advised by September 1, 2026
alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the voting delegate desk. This will enable them to receive the special sticker on their name badges that will admit the voting delegate into the voting area during the General Assembly.
Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference.
Transferring Voting Card to Non-Designated Individuals Not Allowed. The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates. If the voting delegate and alternates find themselves unable to attend the General Assembly, they may not transfer the voting card to another city official.
Seating Protocol during General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
The voting delegate desk, located in the conference registration area of the Anaheim Convention Center, will be open at the following times: Wednesday, Sept. 23, 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. and Thursday, Sept. 24, 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. On Friday, Sept. 25, the voting delegate desk will be open at the General Assembly, starting at 7:30 a.m., but will be closed during roll calls and voting.
The voting procedures that will be used at the conference are attached to this memo.
Please share these procedures and this memo with your council and especially with the individuals that your council designates as your city’s voting delegate and alternates.
Once again, thank you for submitting your voting delegate and alternates by Tuesday, Sept. 1. If you have questions, please contact Zach Seals at [email protected].

1. One City One Vote. Each member city has a right to cast one vote on matters pertaining to Cal Cities policy.
2. Designating a City Voting Representative. Prior to the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo, each city council may designate a voting delegate and up to two alternates; these individuals are identified on the voting delegate form provided to the Cal Cities Credentials Committee.
3. Registering with the Credentials Committee. The voting delegate, or alternates, may pick up the city's voting card at the voting delegate desk in the conference registration area. Voting delegates and alternates must sign in at the voting delegate desk. Here they will receive a special sticker on their name badge and thus be admitted to the voting area at the General Assembly.
4. Signing Initiated Resolution Petitions. Only those individuals who are voting delegates (or alternates), and who have picked up their city’s voting card by providing a signature to the credentials committee at the voting delegate desk, may sign petitions to initiate a resolution.
5. Voting. To cast the city's vote, a city official must have in their possession the city's voting card and voting tool; and be registered with the credentials committee. The voting card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates but may not be transferred to another city official who is neither a voting delegate nor alternate.
6. Voting Area at General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
7. Resolving Disputes. In case of dispute, the credentials committee will determine the validity of signatures on petitioned resolutions and the right of a city official to vote at the General Assembly.
Sixty days before the
Annual Conference
and Expo, Cal Cities
members may submit
policy proposals on
issues of importance
to cities. The resolution must
have the concurrence of at least
five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a memberinformed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.

Resolutions Committee
The Resolutions
Committee considers
all resolutions. General
Resolutions approved1 by
either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee are next
considered by the General Assembly.
General resolutions not approved, or
referred for further study by both a
policy committee and the Resolutions
Committee do not go to the General
Assembly. All Petitioned Resolutions
are considered by the General
Assembly, unless disqualified.2
During the Annual Conference and Expo
1 The Resolution Committee can amend a general resolution prior to sending it to the General Assembly. 2 Petitioned Resolutions may be disqualified by the Resolutions Committee according to Cal Cities Bylaws Article VI. Sec. 5(f).
