Would LOVE to stay at the Pistachio House from Paradise Rentals. LOVE Jeff Shelton!
The fly shaped fly swatters at Light + Home slay me.
So, the debris nets are to be removed. Will the county they replace them with new nets that they will maintain? What?

Nice to know that the cabal that is real estate brokerage industry is finally facing its reckoning. The fees and costs associated with selling a 7 or 8 figure home these days are so far out of line with the actual work. It takes almost no skill or effort to sell a property these days. Just a few dozen photos (by a photographer, not an agent), a few dozen clicks by anyone with any semblance of tech skills, and the home is available for everyone to see and discover. There is value to a good agent, but it's not nearly the reward. It's time to gut the commission all together and pay the agents by the hour. Like every other profession. Or at the very least, cut it down to something inline with the rest of the world - 3%.
Hopefully the MLS and its monopolistic collusion is next in this series of ginormous civil suits. I imagine the lawyers are circling them as well... And let's not forget the title companies.
It's been a good run for the agents and brokers, but the industry is due for a reckoning. It's time for them to be paid an appropriate payment for their time and skills. To be forced into the market conditions they love to quote when their talking about price and value...
Danny’s closing is so very sad our families have been loving his turkey and tri-tip ever since he opened. Very sorry he will be greatly missed.
not sure but would love to know.
Danny's had the best smoked try-tip and turkey sandwiches in town. Once you got over the strangeness of the place, you would return many times to enjoy them. Enjoy your retirement Danny. I am sure that lot is worth a small fortune. Fish on!
The Los patos roundabout looks like it would be an improvement over the status quo. Hopefully the pedestrian crosswalks will have flashing lights.
A mansion built on La Goleta Road, visible North of the Christian Academy on Cathedral Oaks seats going on?
How is this legal?
What a kaleidoscope of interesting Santa Barbara news and local happenings — loved reading this edition, thanks
Sounds like $55,000 well spent, good for them.
Just now I just watched another city council meeting regarding bike lanes on State street (The Promenade) and let me be clear, Mayor Randy and council member Eric voted against this, check it out. Proposed by Kristen and supported by Alejandra, Oscar, Mike and Meagan, they authorized the city to spend $55,000 to paint bike lanes on State street. Am I the only one that thinks these same five that vote together on State street issues are in fact, delusional?
What would be really helpful for your readers to better understand is if you had three pages or three sections:
"Apartment Projects in the Pipeline in the City of Santa Barbara"
"Apartment Projects in the Pipeline in Unincorporated Santa Barbara County"
"Apartment Projects in the Pipeline in the City of Goleta"
And break down the numbers in those categories. That way people understand which of the governmental entities are involved in the decisions, and the general areas that will see more apartments.
Also, some are identified as Housing Authority, but others don't have the owners included. The amount of subsidized rents for lower incomes should be included for each project.
So much confusion and misinformation out in the public, it would be helpful for us all to try to be as specific as possible. Thanks!
I tried a pastrami sandwich at Norton's and ended up throwing it out. One bite - greasy, horrible. Can't wait for Wexlers and a true jewish deli.
We do not need 10 blocks of those ugly parklets. As for the electric bikes…put them on another block. They are too dangerous for a walking street. Create a bike lot and make the promenade 5 blocks for a safe pleasant stroll, with some local commerce.
I’d also like to see the Holiday parade back. That was the most hometown, small town neighbourhood parade I’ve had the pleasure of seeing
I agree! Support the locals!
Do people have to disclose their mental illness prior to entering the "raffle" for ketamine sessions...
Let's call it what it is - the Drunk Zone. .The Funk died with Red's last party, which was crazy epic for those who remember it, and those hidden little gems of artistic and eclectic shops closed. Now it's filled with places that attract tourists and those who need to be "seen", with the exception of one or two amazing artists or shops...the funk is gone...been gone, and will never return. Maybe it will take 100s of 1000s of $$ to a consultant for a new name, but for now, it's the Drunk Zone for those in the know.
The Drunk Zone. Developers took the funk out long ago.
always enjoyed eclectic Reds...
Ellen and Portia have a gorilla sanctuary that protects them from becoming extinct. That is a great use of their money.
