This plan divides our neighborhood in a really odd way, it would be weird to have one block represented by a different council member.

Supporting this plan currently however I believe the city of Goleta should move forward with incorporating areas north of La Goleta Road into District 3. I have concerns that this area will be developed to the detriment of the semi-rural character many Goleta residents cherish. Current residents will be negatively impacted by development in the wild-fire prone areas in the foothills. Organic farms and horse facilities are already at risk to development. Lot splits threaten this area. Goleta should be making zoning and land use policy in this area — not the County. The Goleta foothills need protection as do the farms and orchards and natural open space that currently exists in the Goleta area.
This plan keeps neighborhoods cohesive, which is good.
