Can the city please cite the kids going 35 mph on e bikes on the boardwalk before they hassle restaurants about signs? We were running there last night and were consistently blasted past. Someone, probably a small child they don’t see, is gonna get really badly hurt. I don’t see a single cop - but I’m sure the $120 million police station will solve that?
I’ll say it again, time for new leadership.
No sandwich board signs? That's what needs cracking down on? The City won't stop until everyone has to use echolocation to find businesses - still bitter about the whole Institution Ale neon sign "controversy."
Maybe the short termers aren’t paying their city taxes while causing hell for neighbors. Short term renters are loud, create excess trash, and take up parking spaces. The city is not zoned for this.
Finally a solution to leaving REI and wanting to go eastbound. You had to go to the other side of State before. Can't wait for it to be finally implemented.
Bike racks at The Post were installed weeks ago on E Cabrillo near Ospi's patio.
OMG! The best response EVER!
Jefferson- that comment is the funniest comment I have seen in a very long time- I am going to steal it! hahahaha
Their Pickleball courts are open. I saw quite a few people playing this morning.
Ospi's website notes a potential workaround in their "parking" section. If I'm understanding correctly, it looks like guests can opt to use the valet section of the parking lot as additional free parking if they note that they want to self park when pulling up to the valet stand. https://www.ospi.com/montecito
LOLOL
Show us on the doll where The Post hurt you.
I hope so…went there for a birthday celebration in October and had to pay for the valet before even going in for the expensive food. There were only a few cars parked there on this week night, then had to pay for parking as I left the wharf. Have not returned.
The Hilton expansion-- at the cost of how many trees??
free refills, of course, right??
Lots and lots of hotel expansion and new hotel approvals all over Santa Barbara.
Also SB spending a fortune tracking down citizens who use their rentals on a short term basis (like hotels). In fact, most of Santa Barbara is zoned to eliminate short term rentals; yet new hotels can go in the same areas.
I would say they can’t have it both ways — but they clearly can.
The Post should focus on a lot of things. Also lock the restrooms properly so the homeless aren't sleeping in there overnight (this is even with the existing code lock). Lock in a better outdoor playlist (and please turn the volume down - this is not an outdoor Miami mall). Lock in a LOCAL property manager instead of showing up whenever she wants to from LA to walk her dog around the courtyard and then leave. Lock in an arborist to manage the palm fronds constantly falling on cars in the parking lot. Lock your wallet in the car because there are only expensive shops and nothing local/reasonable/reflection of SB lifestyle. And get those (hair) locks ready to choose from 20+ hairstylists coming soon to the upstairs ?? Renovation looks nice despite termite mess in most stores, but the store choices are not that useful in my opinion.
We trumpnuts.
The Post better focus on a bike lock area.
Exactly. We are tired of DEI being shoved down our throats. What a novel ( & fiscal) concept… to book the most talented regardless of their gender.
Traditional should be thin but bending down the middle will hold up.
Worked at Michael Anthonys back in the day and eaten a lot of pizza in NY.
Of course if the flavor is there really doesn't matter.
I visited the harbor restaurant over mothers day weekend. What a joke! who are the new owners of this place $435.00 for 4 people will never go back. Terrible service and the food was 2 stars. What a waste of money.
R.
Valet is gone from the wharf
Same, actually. I’ll be there too.
IMO, the strange thing is the Hilton just spent $$$ to convert the tennis courts into pickleball courts, only to erect story poles, so they can’t be used. I don’t think they were ever used. These courts will now be a casualty of this proposed construction. Odd.
As a Carpinterian i am so excited for new places opening up in Carp. Every since we lost Fosters, The Palms, Beach liquor, etc. I wouldnt mind some more options in town. Looking forward to the Nugget as well.
