Malibu’s elected officials were all but ignored yesterday … when the L A County Board of Supervisors made a major decision to allow camping in the brush just outside city limits. And most telling … county supervisor Sheila Kuehl included in her comments … her assessment of the county’s public safety response to the Woolsey Fire. “A lot of good work by our Public Safety.”

It’s been nearly a decade since California ordered coastal power plants to stop using seawater for cooling, a process that kills fish and other marine life. Staff at the California Public Utilities Commission say four natural gas plants in Southern California should be allowed to keep operating up to three additional years. It’s the biggest smog source near Malibu. Details: https://www.radiomalibu.net/cpuc-wants-smog-belching-plant/
