The City of Calabasas City Council held a meeting on April 22, 2026, focusing on several key issues including a proclamation denouncing hatred and affirming human dignity, opposition to California Assembly Bill 1768 regarding Los Angeles County transaction and use taxes, and the introduction of objective design standards (ODS) for multi-family and mixed-use developments.
