Visit Santa Barbara’s travel advisory page is updated regularly and includes the most current information to guide travelers: http://www.santabarbaraca.com/travel HOW TO HELP How can we help the communities of Santa Barbara and Montecito? Visit Santa Barbara is heartbroken for the families, neighbors and businesses in Montecito impacted by the December Thomas Fire and subsequent January 9, 2018 mudslide (also known as the 1/9 debris flow). However, our community spirit is stronger than ever. There are many excellent local nonprofits raising funds either directly for those impacted or through charitable organizations that serve them. Several are listed on our travel advisory page: http:// www.santabarbaraca.com/travel One of the absolute best ways to support our community is for visitors to come experience the special place that the Santa Barbara South Coast is—including the cities and towns of Santa Barbara, Montecito, Goleta and Summerland. While the majority of area businesses were not damaged, many experienced significant loss of income during both the Thomas Fire and the temporary Highway 101 closure. We encourage you to visit our hotels and restaurants, shop at local retailers, and explore the many attractions The American Riviera has to offer. With support of our visitors, we look forward to brighter days ahead in Santa Barbara. CONDITIONS IN SANTA BARBARA Have the mudslides in Montecito and Thomas Fire affected Santa Barbara?

Marc McGinnes and the Santa Barbara Citizens for Carone Oil Project Environmental Defense, conceived of the Environmental Defense Center (EDC) as the “link between citizen intention and citizen action.” As the founders noted in the aftermath of the 1969 Santa Barbara Oil Spill, Whales & Shipping Gaviota Coast Plan "If left to their own priorities, government and business, for whatever their reasons, will surely continue to allow the destruction of the natural structure of the planet. Simultaneously they will, apparently, create MPAs-New Underwater Parks and build increasingly dangerous energy facilities with less safety testing and less concern for future ramifications." Santa Rosa Island Goleta Heritage In the wake of the Deepwater Horizon tragedy, and others over the years, it is clear that citizen action is as Farmland Initiative critical now as it was 35 years ago.

    Locklin, Linda@Coastal Flom: Christine Fimbres <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 201.9 l-2:28 PM To: Coastal Hollister Ranch Subject: Hollister For 70 years I have loved the beach since going as a child to contemplate the beauty and meaning in life--especially impactful was gazing at the horizon meeting the sea. Now I view most beaches in sorrow at the wanton trashing by my compatriots. Look anywhere, the carelessness and filth spread by so many people is undeniable, despite Susan Jordan's claim that "we all care about the environmentrr. The Coastal Commission may "have decades of experience" protecting "balance" at Big Sur precisely because it is so remote. To describe the public's activities at Joshua Tree and Elsinore is NOT demonization, -iust admission of obvious fact. Perhaps the Coastal Comm thinks those "elites" at Hollister are "no better than any other human being," but they are obviously cleaner and better stewards than the general public. I am grateful there are still some unspoiled beaches nearby. Just because I cannot go there to "enjoy" (with all the traipsing about involved), the idea that such places exist: it is reassuring and nourishing to the spirit.

This section identifies potential major physical and environmental constraints on the Gaviota Coastal Trail and provides initial design principles to address such constraints and reduce impacts associated with trail construction. This analysis incorporates data from many sources (e.g., 2011 Las Varas Ranch Environmental Impact Report [EIR]), other Gaviota area studies and field surveys performed by the Trails Council. This analysis also draws upon the experience of jurisdictions that have successfully planned for and implemented segments of the Coastal Trail and access improvements in rural areas similar to the Gaviota Coast. The design principles within this section and the use of standard trail design practices would ensure that implementation of the Gaviota Coastal Trail alignment in this Trail Study would be consistent with the guidelines and policies of the California Coastal Conservancy, California Coastal Commission and County of Santa Barbara regarding provision of coastal access and resource protection.

  • 2.1 INTRODUCTION General Plan Law Requirements
    Goleta General Plan/Coastal Land Use Plan 2.0 Land Use Element CHAPTER 2.0 LAND USE ELEMENT (LU) 2.1 INTRODUCTION General Plan Law Requirements [GP] The Land Use Element is one of seven Land Use Element Policies elements mandated by state planning law, LU 1: Land Use Plan Map and General Policies at Section 65302 of the California LU 2: Residential Land Uses Government Code. The Land Use Element LU 3: Commercial Land Uses is required to consist of a statement of LU 4: Office and Industrial Uses LU 5: Public and Quasi-Public Land Uses policies and a land use plan map showing LU 6: Park and Open Space Uses the spatial distribution, location, and extent LU 7: Agriculture of lands designated for housing, business, LU 8: Central Hollister Residential Development Area industry, open space, agriculture, and other LU 9: Coastal-Dependent and -Related Uses (Key Pacific Shoreline Sites) categories of public and private uses of LU 10: Energy-Related On- and Off-Shore Uses land. It must state standards for population LU 11: Nonresidential Growth Management density and building intensity for each of the LU 12: Land Use In Goleta’s Environs land use categories. This element defines Goleta’s planned long-range development pattern and physical character, as well as the extent and distribution of future growth in the city. Other elements of the plan further address the relationships between future development and environmental quality, safety hazards, and social and economic concerns. Coastal Act Requirements [CP] The California Coastal Act (Coastal Act), at Section 30250 of the Public Resources Code, provides that new development shall be located within or contiguous to existing developed areas in order to create a compact development pattern that avoids “leapfrogging” and achieves efficient use of existing public facilities such as streets and utilities.
