  • Sparkly lights … palm trees lit up like chandeliers … and landscaping like Vegas at night??? Banned in Malibu.
  • Surfers and state parks agree … the Malibu Lagoon is threatening the Adamson House.
  • Opposition builds against a proposed desalination plant that would serve Malibu.
  • And the city council gives high marks to the new school superintendent’s plan to close one of Malibu’s three elementary schools.

This is Malibu’s only local daily news. It’s the   ((((  final  ))) edition of the (((  Tuesday ))) news … from Radio Malibu  ….  F-M 99 point 1 K B U U.  Good morning … I’m Hans Laetz reporting.

——

October 15th is the day … that every outdoor light in Malibu must be shielded … pointed down … and turned off by 11 at night.

There are a few exceptions … but the Malibu city council last night enacted one of the nation’s toughest bans on outdoor lighting.

A few adjustments were made to the ordinance last night.

Outdoor string lights will be allowed … but only at dining and entertaining  areas … only during times when people are outside … and they have to be shut off when people go inside.

Other than that … the ordinance was not tinkered with last night … when the city Council approved it by a 5 to nothing vote.

Now comes a public education campaign … to let businesses and homeowners know about the coming rule change.

Gas stations .. For example … will have about a year to change out the light fixtures so that the store is no longer glow-in-the-dark.

Homeowners face a and October 15 deadline to readjust … replace … and build timers for their outdoor lighting.

But the days of estates lit up with floodlights pointing up in the air on their palm trees … fest tuned with thousands of sparkly Christmas lights …. Appear to be over.
