It would seem that some mental health impacts are pretty obvious. Like the mental health impact on a 9-yr-old of having her grandfather's baby. Do you seriously think the child would have a normal life after that? either child - the one birthing or the one being birthed. Get real. Get a heart, and a life!

Every time I see these new hotels mentioned I think it must be a mistake. Why build two brand new hotels within a block from each other? What the f****?????
And this suit hopes to block a third hotel about a mile from those two. Can we have a sanity check here? Ed?

Lisaw, yes - I didn't get that from your post. Good idea.

The Storke overpass is a pedestrian nightmare. As is the Los Carneros overpass and onramps, the Winchester Canyon overpass, and the Fairview overpass. Thanks to our development crazy Goleta City Council for putting their energies on helping to fix these things!!!! (Instead, we have more hotels and houses to feed more cars to these intersections.) Come November, who will we vote for? Onnen and Blois? Heck no!

Sorry to offend VetteGuy but politics are becoming an issue. Goleta has approved the addition of over a thousand new homes and several thousand hotel rooms that will be built within the next couple years. How will this affect our serene way of life? Remains to be seen. At least it is "our" choice. The airport and UCSB impact our way of life without any offsets - expanding and bring thousands of people onto our roads without so much as a "may I?" There's the politics for you. Can we get the County to force them to either be accountable for their actions and/or pay their own way in the form of public transportation and infrastructure? Does anyone sitting in the GCC (besides Johnny and maybe Roger) even care?
Please support the candidates for GCC who are not funded by the Chamber of Commerce this November.

Time to look to the election! Let's get one more reasonable person in there to offset the Idiot(s) at the helm. Who will run for our Goleta City Council? Please step forward now so we can mobilize voters.

Sevendolphins needs to remember that ALTHOUGH shopping/spending areas like Costco, Bacara, and the Fairview/Calle Real business district serve a larger area than the City of Goleta, only Goletans pay for the trash on the streets around these areas, and deal with the traffic and added air pollution from these. I can't imagine Mesa people dealing with the impact from a Costco.
Sandon71 needs to check the logic behind Goleta city line choices. These were chosen to omit those near the Patterson border who did NOT want to become Goletans, who prefer to hope for SB City inclusion. Isla Vista was omitted because the huge services burden would prevent most Goletans from voting for incorporation, and wisely so - these costs should be born by UCSB. We Goletans continue to be walked all over by their policies that impact our daily life without one iota of input from we who are most affected. Heil, UCSB! (GCity Council wake up and fight back!)
We deal with SB's airport pollution and traffic too!

These negative comments are posted by the same people over on the noozhawk site. A noisy few. Say it often enough and someone might believe it I guess. No one wants free health care and no one chanted free health care. We chanted Health Care Now. Why were these people allowed to shout on a megaphone from atop a pickup truck on a city street in the middle of the afternoon? That's not first amendment - that is DISTURBING THE PEACE.
Next would someone from that side please explain where you see no health care reform spelled out in the Constitution? It says to "provide for the GENERAL WELFARE" If you don't have access to health care you do not have your general anything.
Did you see where someone set up shop at the Staples Center in LA for a week to provide health care to poor people? Report that!!! There were people crying who can't afford a doctor!!!
