The Malibu Farmers Market is returning to its longtime home!

Join the Farmers Market this Sunday, August 30, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Los Angeles County lot at Malibu Library on Civic Center Way for a great day of fresh produce, local vendors, and community connection.

The City was pleased to host the Farmers Market at the City Hall parking lot last Sunday to ensure the community would have a market while arrangements were finalized. Since then, the City has worked closely with the Cornucopia Foundation, Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath and her team, and the Santa Monica College to return the Market to the County lot.

Thank you to Malibu Farmers' Market - Cornucopia Foundation and founder Debra Bianco for working with the City and the County to keep the Farmers Market going and bringing it back to its longtime home. We look forward to seeing everyone Sunday!

MYTH vs. FACT: City of Malibu’s PCH Speed Safety System

When a new safety program is introduced, questions are natural. As Malibu launches its PCH Speed Safety System, we’re sharing facts about how the program works and what drivers can expect. In late September 2026, the 60-day warning period begins. In late November 2026, citations will be issued.

❌ MYTH: This is an Automatic License Plate Reader, or a Flock system, that will conduct surveillance of the public.
✅ FACT: Our system is very different. The automated speed citation system ONLY issues speeding tickets and does not record anything UNTIL it is triggered by a vehicle going at least 11 MPH over the speed limit. ALPR systems and Flock scan license plates widely for criminal investigations.

❌ MYTH: The City is watching where I drive.
✅ FACT: Only vehicles going at least 11 MPH over the posted speed limit activate the system and are recorded only to issue a speeding citation.

❌ MYTH: The system is violating my privacy; it uses facial recognition.
✅ FACT: The system does not use facial recognition. If a violation is measured, an image of the rear license plate of the speeding vehicle is taken. Otherwise, no images are taken.

❌ MYTH: The system is designed to generate as many citations as possible to generate revenue for the City.
✅ FACT: The goal is to reduce dangerous speeding, prevent crashes, save lives and make PCH safer for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, commuters and visitors — not generate revenue. All revenue generated can only go toward covering system costs and PCH safety measures.

❌ MYTH: Drivers’ information will be publicly available.
✅ FACT: Strong privacy protections apply to information collected by the system.

The City’s Public Information & Education campaign will continue through the launch.
