The long running and hotly debated Malibu La Paz Project is finally starting to be considered by the Malibu City Council who have hinted at its approval.

The project is split into different plans which would make way for a new commercial district with amenities for local residents as well as a new city hall to replace the current aging location.

However, the council has just gone back to the developer in a landmark discussion and asked for another plan to be drawn up to include a waste water facility instead of a new city hall - this heightened acknowledgement of the plans and developer has been noted by some as a hint that the plan may receive approval from the city council itself and be given the green light to start construction soon.

With the recent discussions changing the focus into more of a “public benefit” analysis the developer has been asked to resubmit their plans and to include other facilities such as landscaping through to Legacy Park, underground parking and golf/pedestrian routes for residents.

The city of Malibu last night was granted control of the Pacific Coast Highway median from Malibu Lagoon Bridge to Malibu Canyon Road. This was part of a deal between the city and the California Department of Transportation who, after concerns were raised about liability decided to relinquish control of the median for the MalibuGreenMachine - a non profit group in Malibu - to beautify!

Whilst the shift in liabiliy has cost the non-profit group $1.5 million in the beautification scheme it has cost the city $20,000 a year in annual maintence as well as the concern about liability should and automobile accident be caused by the median. However the pros and cons were carefully considered and overall the it was deemed that the beautification of the median would be benefitial to the residents and through traffic in Malibu. MalibuGreenMachine is delighted to have been given the opportunity to beautify the median of the Pacfic Coast Highway in what is one of the most famous sections of tarmac in the entire world. However there is still $300,000 to be raised, but charity President does not see this as a problem and expects construction to begin at the end of the month!

Olympic Fever and Pride came to Malibu this summer as Olympic Silver Medal Winner Simon Aspelin’s victory was celebrated. The Pepperdine University Alumnus (he was an All-American Honors student each year he was at Pepperdine, betwen 1994 and 1997) he was a tennis star when at the university and played in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China.

The result was stunning and it was the best ever Olympic result by a Wave tennis player. Aspelin is however the second Olympian tennis player from Pepperdine, the first was Brad Gilbet who won a bronze medal in the 1998 Olympics during the mens singles competition.

Simon Aspelin ranked 9th in the world for doubles tennis and was part of the duo who won the 2007 US Open. An achievement in itself!

The community of Malibu is proud to see one of its own "up ther" in the Olympics.
