Wireless Permit No. 25-001, Coastal Development Permit Exemption No. 26-044, and Categorical Exemption No. 25-101

The City of Malibu has authorized modifications to an existing rooftop telecommunications facility at the Point Dume Professional Center under Wireless Permit No. 25-001, Coastal Development Permit Exemption No. 26-044, and Categorical Exemption No. 25-101. The proposed changes include adding one new 2-foot diameter microwave dish antenna, one new radio frequency unit, and two new cables, while relocating one existing antenna to a new wall-mounted position. All equipment upgrades and relocations will remain within the boundaries of the current rooftop facility, with no expansion beyond the established envelope. The total height of the antennas will remain unchanged at 43 feet, 9 inches, and no new ground-mounted infrastructure, excavation, or trenching will be undertaken. The work is being conducted on private property with no impact to coastal or public areas. The permit application is managed by the City of Malibu’s Community Development Department, with primary points of contact including Gabriela Medrano, Office Assistant, and Yolanda Bundy, Community Development Director, both reachable at 310-456-2489 or via email at gmedrano@malibucity.org and ybundy@malibucity.org. The project was posted on June 18, 2026, and falls under categorical and coastal development exemptions, indicating it meets established criteria for environmental review waivers due to its minimal impact. The facility is part of T-Mobile’s wireless network infrastructure, and all changes are intended to enhance network capacity and performance without altering the visual or structural footprint of the existing installation.
