Lois backed Obama because her district voted for him big time.

If she had come out against Barrack, she would be risking her congressional seat.

When septics are in high ground water they break down and leak.

When DNA tests show that human viruses are in the creek next to the Rincon homes, but test clean higher up the creek than the homes, it's a no-brainer, no matter how much we wish it wasn't so.

Corporations aren't. That's why the planet is getting trashed so fast.

$$$ vs. responsibility.

Lots of people don't want to take responsibility for their messes, just like some of the $$ lovers at Rincon.

On City Council Waits for More Data Before Capping Downtown Structures

Ironically, I believe this dress code will promote gang membership. The white and black t-shirts are largely a condition of poverty. Banning poverty is absurd. The economic conditions for gang kids reflect poverty. Gangs are a support system for semi-street kids whose families pay high Santa Barbara rents and are working 12 hour days.

If you want uniforms, great, but if poor kids don't bring them, do they all get kicked out and put into "Gang School" where poverty and gangs will merge?

Its about time.

Tax collectors love our money. I bet most of them never ran a private business. Congrats Bill!!

“Tea-bagging.”

Thats what they do at the Tajiguas landfill too. But it only effects the drinking water of a few homes next door and is a stones throw from the ocean.

Government always prefers cash to health, how else can they finance their Deptartment of Health? Different landfill, same b&%ls#@t.

Chicalifornian,

"the growth has to go some where"

Your premise that it has to be in Santa Barbara or California is false.

The United States has plenty of cheap housing. If you go to Las Vegas or Phoenix the majority of the population there actually want the growth, unlike the people of Santa Barbara and California who don't want more over-development. If the doctors and teachers leave, people here who have $$ will have to pay more for those services if they want them to exist locally. Housing prices here will NEVER be affordable no matter how many houses are built.

Your being used by developers to have the mentality that things will become affordable. They won't. If it wasn't all just about development the City, County, and State could easily just buy pre-existing housing and give it to doctors and teachers. But they don't because politicians like Pedro Nava continue to take $$ from development PAC's to run their campaigns.

On South County Handed Lion’s Share of New Housing

Posted on March 26 at 11:28 a.m.

Low cost housing is killing this area. We look like orange county did 20 years ago which is pretty awful.

On Supes Vote to Halt Noleta Rezoning

If parents were home instead of working 3 jobs to pay over-priced rents the gang problem would be less severe in my opinion.
