CAMPUS NOTES
Goleta Beach Parking Crackdown Santa Barbara County officials intend “to increase parking enforcement at Goleta Beach…specifically, the beach lot” where university parking is prohibited, according to a Transportation & Parking Services notice recently sent to permit holders. County enforcement will issue citations to “motorists who are deemed to be using the lot to attend campus activities” rather than coastal access, the notice said. No start date was mentioned.
