Carp Closes Escrow on Land Deal
The City of Carpinteria closed escrow on a 1.44-acre parcel of land between Linden and Holly avenues — just south of the railroad tracks — that officials say will be kept as open space. The $770,000 purchase was made with money designated by the city’s General Plan for recreation uses, and planners will soon initiate a public process to determine how the plot will be utilized for outdoor facilities, trails, and so on.
