MALIBU—On Monday, February 8, the city of Malibu announced that they have received a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grant to fund the City’s proposed outdoor emergency siren system.
“Wildfire has always been Malibu’s number-one public safety threat, but the size, duration and severity of the Woolsey Fire was unprecedented, and showed us the dangerous new normal of drought, climate change and California mega-fires,” said Mayor Mikke Pierson. “I am proud of the progress we have made in developing strategies to be even more prepared for disasters, including this siren system, which could be a powerful step toward community-wide preparedness.”
