Loma Alta Drive will be closed to vehicular traffic, from Coronel Street to West Canon Perdido Street, from October 18 to June 1, 2022, as the City prepares for storm-related impacts to Loma Alta Drive from the recent Loma Fire.
The City of Santa Barbara Public Works Department will be hosting a community meeting to provide information to local residents about our planning and forecast for storm-related impacts due to the Loma Fire burn area.
The meeting will be held at the McKinley Elementary School Auditorium, 350 Loma Alta Drive, on Wednesday, November 3, at 7:30 p.m. Spanish translation will be provided for the event. Facemasks are required.
It’s already been tested with that recent thunderstorm. Were there any impacts to the road after that? If not, maybe it won’t be so bad this winter, especially as it is La Nina and should be pretty dry.
So is the guy who started the fire going to pay for all this work or nah, taxpayers foot the bill not only for this but for his 3 hots and a cot?
