The PaliBu Recovery Expo will be held from noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 16 at the Malibu Civic Center, 23575 Civic Center Way. The Expo will bring together recovery resources, wellness services, business support organizations, nonprofits, government agencies, and community partners serving residents impacted by the Palisades, Woolsey, and Franklin Fires.
Palisades Recovery Coalition founder Maryam Zar will also moderate a panel featuring conversations around rebuilding, resilience, recovery resources, and the future of fire-impacted communities.
COMMUNITY COUNCIL MEETING:
This meeting will cover bylaw recommendations, which if passed, will change some of the organizational categories. There are 29 organizational categories that usually rotate for nine positions. If the new bylaws are approved, it will result in no more than three no less than two organizations in eight of the nine categories. Two groups specifically the Pacific Palisades Resident Association and the Pacific Palisade Historical Society would lose status as single-organization, joined by team Palisades and Friends of the Palisades Library. It could be a spirited discussion. Announcements for a new slate of officers for PPCC will also be announced. To see the full agenda and the Zoom link, https://pacpalicc.org/

This editor’s new favorite quote is from Abhijit Naskar “Politicians must be potty trained before they run for office, so that they don’t poop all over the planet.”
