MALIBU—The city is allowing seniors back to the Senior Center beginning April 1 as part of the reopening of City Hall to the public. The Senior Center will be open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“The Senior Center at Malibu City Hall is a vital hub where elders in our community can socialize, stay in touch with the community, and stay active, healthy, and engaged,” said Mayor Paul Grisanti. “Throughout the pandemic, the City has offered a range of remote and outdoor activities to serve our seniors, and we are delighted that COVID-19 rates are low enough for us to reopen the Senior Center. We look forward to seeing you.”

The city of Malibu indicated in a news release that seniors will have access to general use areas, such as the computer lab, library, and numerous recreation programs. Staff is available to assist with Dial-A-Ride questions and program registrations. Fresh coffee will be available daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Face coverings are recommended, but not required in Malibu City Hall, in line with the updated Los Angeles County Health Officer Order as of March 4, 2022. The Order is available to review at:  http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/media/Coronavirus/docs/HOO/HOO_SaferReturnWorkCommunity.pdf.
