Topanga Smart and Malibu Smart Programs Offer New Technologies to Help Residents Conserve Water
PRESS RELEASE – With increasing temperatures, persistent drought conditions and a prolonged fire season, it continues to be important to save water. To address these pressing environmental issues, the City of Malibu, County of Los Angeles and West Basin Municipal Water District are launching a comprehensive water conservation program. The Malibu Smart and Topanga Smart water savings programs will help both residential customers and businesses reduce water use by helping them get rebates for installing the latest watering technologies. 

In any emergency where there is life threatening danger, CALL 911.
To get emergency information quickly, OneTopanga has collected some reliable Twitter sources that target the Santa Monica Mountains, Los Angeles, and surrounding areas. Twitter feeds may be the best way to get emergency information during a disaster event.  You can view Twitter feeds on OneTopanga on this page or on our home page in the right side bar.
