The City encourage public interaction and communication about the content we post on our social media accounts.

A comment will not be edited or modified to remove unacceptable content; the entire comment will simply be deleted and preserved as a public record. Some of the reasons we may remove a comment include:
• Abusive, vulgar, obscene, racist, threatening, or harassing comments.
• Libel, slander, or personal attacks of any kind, including the use of offensive terms that target specific individuals or groups.
• Spam, including content that promotes products or services or contains gratuitous links.
• Unsupported accusations.
• Suggestion or encouragement of illegal, dangerous, or destructive activity.
• Duplicate posts.
• Clearly off topic.
• Political campaigning or lobbying.
• Comments that are really customer support questions (for that, please contact City Hall at (310) 456-2489 or email [email protected]. Moderating or responding to comments should only be expected to occur during normal business hours. The City uses third-party social media services for outreach, some of which may require a membership that subjects users to policies, requirements, or rules beyond the control of the City of Malibu. The City does not endorse membership in a particular social media service.
