You want solar but you don't like the look of solar arrays? If you want renewables you'll need to significantly adjust your expectations on aesthetics.
Not yet, and there's no menu online yet, either.

Montecito open? Where can you find menu?
A left turn on a red light is only permitted when turning from a one way street onto another one way street. Same situation is found a block over on Haley at Santa Barbara St. If Anacapa turns into a two way street on this block then I would think the left on red would no longer be legal.
I suppose it's been a long time since I've gone out for steak (minus every November at TeeOff for my birthday prime rib), so $87 for a steak sounds high.
Thanks for clarifying, Lauren. If they’re in fact keeping most of the date palms (which are so elegant and beautiful in my opinion), then I wouldn’t mind. The petition made me think they were cutting them all down! I didn’t sign it because it also seems, just, anti bike path?
I’m pro bike path but anti cutting down the trees. Can’t they figure out a way to do both? We are rapidly losing mature trees around SB due to development and drought and it’s changing the character in a negative way. I don’t see why the planners can’t come up with a creative way to keep the trees and plot the path.
Oh FFS. That petition fails to mention they’re planting 60-120 live oaks, 80% of the palms are staying, and they’re mostly removing the invasive and highly flammable eucalyptus. So a net increase in trees, replacing invasives with natives, lower fire risk, AND most importantly… the protection of lives with a protected bike lane. That’s a sketchy section of a very popular bike route to UCSB. As someone who bikes it on my commute 100+ days/year, please don’t prioritize some invasive trees over my safety.
Nice write ups about local homes. I’ve been to that house in Hope Ranch (before it was redone and when it was owned by our friends). It isn’t narrow at all - everything about it feels big. Usable land feels large too. I don’t think I have ever seen the other houses you profiled on this page.

That on-ramp is scary as all getout. ALMOST as scary as any Arroyo Seco Parkway on-ramp.
The southbound San Ysidro exit onto 101 has always been an issue, even before the Miramar reopened (but certainly amplified after Caruso won his years-in battle). Getting rid of it altogether is a terrible idea. Lengthening it would be ideal.
I wonder if we’ll still be allowed to turn left on the red light, onto Haley from Anacapa street, after the 400 block of Anacapa is turned into a two-way street/block. Either way, not a bad idea.
Rare Society does indeed have the prices. If you go to the link you provided then scroll down to current menu you will find them. I assumed they'd be super high but they seem pretty standard to maybe a touch on the low end.
pesky hobo coffee squatters?
It has been filthy for a long, long time. Lots of people cut the corner, there are people sleeping there at night....but it wouldn't be this filthy if they had bothered to clean it awhile ago.
I don’t disagree with you, Jillian, but that would be a super hard spot to keep clean. I’m guessing that everyone who’s going to the coffee shop (is it still there?) and CVS (if it’s still there? Lol) cut that corner. And then there are the unhoused who may or may not (are they still there?) seek shelter there at night.
la Kaiser might take a little time and wash the front walkway to their store. It is absolutely FILTHY.
Not a good way to start off a business when they don't take the time to make sure things are clean.

Seems like a natural fit to use at least some of this as UCSB graduate student housing, with an emphasis on engineering/tech grad students in particular - what an absolute coup in recruiting and retaining such students in the future.
Good one
That great news and a fitting acquisition for a company that was a founded by two UCSB Alumni. I hope they do honor Karl by keeping the Volleyball court
We have a neighbor rooster and I love it! <3
I'm not sure what a Montecito sound wall would look like? 20-foot hedge and no sidewalk?
The sound wall is totally Riverside, not Montecito even a little bit.
