Former St. Anthony’s Seminary Listed for $50 Million to be Auctioned Off Next Month
The Sperlings have done much more harm than good with "University of Phoenix" and it deserves to go the way of Trump University. Unfortunately, U of PHX is trying to foist itself on the University of Idaho to pay off its private equity investors.
State Route 192 Full Closures Begin May 6 for Sinkhole Repair
Being familiar with the area they're understandable. To someone who's not driven those roads very much or at all it will be confusing. One thing wrong with the eastbound instructions is that they left out the part where Tremonto becomes Mission Ridge Rd on the way to Hillcrest. Confirming with google maps prior to attempting this detour is always a wise move.

Half of those detour instructions make zero sense
Rice Cooker Causes Fire in Orcutt Home
I suspect they were “alerted” (not “altered”) by the smoke alarms. Always good to check on your alarms to verify that they are functional.

I will never bemoan the loss of a golf course. They are horrible wastes of water and space. But I agree that this housing plan places waaaay too many units for that area given its limited infrastructure, which is already stressed from all the recent development. Plus, I don't see how the limited water resources for our area can possibly support this dramatic jump in homes. Droughts are a fact of life in California.

SB Middle School never owned the property, just rented it. There was talk of Middle School and the Waldorf School getting together in an effort to buy it 20 years ago or so, but that didn't happen, and the Sperlings bought it for their private school "business" (which is what it was, a business). I would love to see it used in a way that benefits the public, after its awful history. Try to balance the scales a bit.
Homeless Camps in Old Town Goleta
Hey ya’ll I’m homeless right now I have been homeless since 2015 and I became homeless due to more than just one event but an array of issues that all came down throughout these years ……. I know almost all the homeless folks on the tracks of Goleta and I can tell you this most of them are all really good people just stuck in there own personal challenges weather it be addiction,death of a loved one, loss of job, depression , or mental illnesses……. Sometimes we do things that we have to in order to eat or find shelter . I speak for myself it seems like every time I get closer to going up a notch in society I’m chopped down financially or mentally by something ……. If you haven’t been homeless before you may not realize that a lot of the everyday luxuries that you may take for granted for us are very major for us like taking a shower or having heat or a kitchen to cook or a bathroom to use… I’m not asking for a hand out and I am not scared to work …… I’m just trying to get a little back into society and have a place to work but rent is so amazingly high and I’m trying to remain living in my car while dodging the sheriff from giving me tickets while trying to pay my registration and gas and keep my belongings safe and remembering appointments filling out paperwork while trying to cook as it’s raining and it goes on it’s everyday struggles it’s just different struggles of someone that has a house. I know everyone has struggles in there life but ours are more obvious to others I guess…… really if I could feel safe and know I could be excepted and my stuff be secure and cops wouldn’t be trying to tow my home/car I would be more available to get work. I do take on as many side jobs and hussels I can get in order to pay my storage, gas, cell phone , etc…… anyways just saying I do know there are some bad apples that may not know how to pick up after themselves and have an extreme case of the “fix£|%|>{> it’s” but really it’s only trash and it will be cleaned up and or biodegrade in time. I’m not trying to say it’s ok for others to live this way I’m just saying there has to be another way to approach the issue because most of the camps that are like that are the people that are either extremely high on drugs and or have mental illness and in the rare case are completely broken and just don’t give a f&$:?)/$”. Any ways I want to say I don’t have the answers to the homelessness of Goleta because some of them want to be homeless or some of them have been homeless for so long it is actually weird or foreign to live in a home to them…… I can say in my case I’d love to have a space to call my own and have a dresser for my clothes or a kitchen to cook and I will have this again some day I know it it just takes a little more time to build up any money here in this town mostly for me is having to dodge the big fines and fees of our county officers and parking people and ca state dmv fees lol . But I’m grateful to be alive and living in my home town even if I am homeless or living in my car I’m still happy to be alive and I do get to see some beautiful things from my car that not many others get to see from your homes . Have a good day and I hope to help as much as I can to better our town !!!!!!

Are you a posser or a poser?

You have no idea of the hard work . It's not like they can't just talk to their party and question their actions. Furthermore, it is misleading to state there is nothing they can do . People didn’t vote them in to hear this happened before they were elected. They were elected to make change not excuses.

I'm sure you did participate. I'm also pretty sure others, who talk about the issue, did not.

Yay for consumer protection, thanks to the prosecutors. However, consumers should be a LOT smarter.

I have sent written comments for all planning commission, board of supervisors hearings and on the EIR. I have spoken at at every hearing. Hundreds of others have done so as well. I have been following the progress since SBCAG decided how to split these ridiculous numbers up. It is such poor planning and really a travesty. Not only will the golf course be gone, this decision paved the way for thousands of units literally on three square blocks surrounding El Camino Elementary, hundreds of units on both sides of 154/cathedral oaks next to the SM preserve and 60 units on Calle Cita between Hope and LaCumbre. This will allow huge apartment buildings right in the middle of single family neighborhoods. Dont blame Laura Capps, she came in to the game late. This was decided before she got elected. Blame state legislators, SBCAG and Lisa Plowman the director of our planning department.

Newsom killed Goleta.

The Supes didn't just kill Goleta. The Supes did exactly what the elected state officials told them to do.

State Street is already "open", and allowing cars to dominate the space will do nothing for businesses. But that's just my opinion. Maybe someday they will indeed allow people to drive their car on those 8 currently car-free blocks, but if you think you'd be saving money by parking your car on State St for free... well I really don't think that's how it would work.

"You of all people". LOL. Let me be clear. I was referring to to Randy's comment about how "y'all" voted, not Edhat's deleting comments. I actually appreciate their deleting so many of your senseless and mean spirited comments.

Y'all got time to post on Ed hat but did any of you even go to the meeting? Nope? Did any of your write in before? After all, it's been all over the local news. Nope? Thought not. Just another bunch of pos(t)ers.
