Malibu homeowners "aren't allowed to build on their own lots until they agree to pay for the costly water tanks and piping to meet required water flow to fight fires by the Los Angeles County Fire Department," and their water district, which has barely modernized since 1959, is too old and outdated to provide its own infrastructure. Some officials have suggested an assessment to help pay for the equipment the water district can't provide. [Malibu Times]
