Malibu Pier
Re “Malibu Votes to Give Pier Back to State,” Oct. 29: The residents of Malibu have chosen to live where they do, yet do not want to take financial responsibility. After the storms of 1983 the taxpayers helped rebuild the oceanfront homes destroyed with subsidized insurance. Next were the fires, then the floods and the ongoing rockslides.
Now the city wants to give the pier back to the state so once again the residents can escape financial responsibility and pass the cost on to the taxpayers. I for one am sick and tired of paying for these people and their problems.
