Flood preparations have been going on all week.
L A County crews have been moving dirt and rocks around in the Trancas Creek channel …. above the Malibu West subdivision.
Piles of dirt have been placed in the concrete flood channel … which has some residents complaining on social media.
It appears that the dirt has been piled in the channel to be flushed down the steep creek … and into the ocean at Trancas Beach.
That’s how sand replenishes the beach.
We have a call in to L A County Public Works to confirm that theory.
Malibu West is the only neighborhood in Malibu protected by L A County flood control basins.
There is talk about installing similar dams and catch basins in Malibu Park … but people in other neighborhoods may be looking with envy at the protective work being done by the county at Malibu West.
