The City of Malibu is proud to be included on California's 2026 Fire Risk Reduction Community List (FRRCL), recognizing our ongoing commitment to reducing wildfire risk and building a safer, more resilient community. This statewide designation highlights communities that have implemented comprehensive wildfire risk reduction strategies, including emergency planning, vegetation management, public education, defensible space efforts, and strong coordination with fire agencies and community partners.
For Malibu, this recognition reflects years of work to strengthen wildfire preparedness and resilience—efforts that have become even more important following recent wildfires. While no designation can eliminate wildfire risk, being on the FRRCL demonstrates that Malibu is taking proactive, state-recognized steps to help protect lives, homes, businesses, and our natural environment.
There are significant advantages to being on the FRRCL, including priority for wildfire prevention grants from CAL FIRE and the potential for obtaining other state or federal resilience, hazard, and community planning funds. It also provides advantages to City homeowners and businesses when applying for insurance, as insurance companies are required to consider the FRRCL designation when calculating premiums for homes and businesses in the community, thereby potentially lowering insurance costs.
Wildfire preparedness is a shared responsibility. The City thanks our residents, neighborhood Firewise communities, partner agencies, and staff for their continued commitment to creating a safer Malibu
