Looking forward to seeing a nice clear picture on Edhat when he is arrested.
Pull your head out.
Cal Fire requires their firefighters stay in HOTEL rooms instead of living in tents like every other fire department on large fires... They also get lifetime medical on retirement, despite what most think, most firefighters do not get medical upon retirement...
Coastwatch where does it say this involved meth?
Roger, So glad you got a comfortable chair. Makes all the difference when there are back problems, I have them too.
Meth dealer war going on in Santa Maria... The Meth is brought up from our open borders and distributed by Mexican gang members. Stop by Marian or Cottage Hospital to see what your tax dollars are going to.
I like em, they got solar on the roof and use sustainable building practices..... bravo goleta.
yuck! looks similar to that POS housing they put in next to 101 FWY in SB. So cheap and non SB looking. How does these get through the planning commission?
The repair work is a result of an over turned semi truck that ended up on the Milpas Street off ramp. It happened about 1:00 AM Saturday morning. Since I was 10 minutes behind the accident I got a flat tire because of all the debris in the 2nd & 3rd lanes. Two wonderful CHP officers change my tire!
I really liked their food and am happy to have a new place to visit in Goleta outside of Chicken Ranch (which is constantly dry and lacking flavor). The meat is always moist and tasty here, and yes nice people. This article is no different than the pieces at any other local media outlet highlighting a local business, plus the author gave their take on the food.
You must be bored.....
It's kind of sad to see obvious self-serving puff pieces appear under the guise of news stories. As far as the article itself goes, the staff at Chicken in a Barrel is very nice, but the food is instantly forgettable.
It is exactly truthful to say that the median worker at Amazon or Walmart doesn't get paid enough to live in SB. But those companies are reaping the benefits of the system that we have created. Maybe stop blaming the companies and change the system?
We thought Kevin was the chief. He did a fabulous job during the floods. We thank him for that. Congratulations we are lucky to have you.
Thanks for the information
Mailer inserts are a different animal than hiring a firm to create a slick video. Luckily we are very generous with our taxes so they have lots of extra money to do things like this. It used to be that public employee salaries were very low so they had to give generous benefits to get people to work there. Now the salaries are the same as private industry, and they still have the generous benies. Good work if you can get it.
Very true Factotum. But the voters keep voting for him, or whoever the local democrat party/unions tell them to, anyway.
$100/pound?! Haha....
Dude, please let me use your 1970’s time machine! Let’s score a pound and hit a Bob Marley concert...
Thank you for the comment.
$2500 x 2000 lbs. x 20 = $100 million dollars.
Who gets the $100 million dollars? Not taxpayers who paid for this operation. Show me a video of 20 tons of weed being “eradicated” ( vague word) or show me the $100 million.
Until then S.B. is a place where crooks are free to steal $100 million with no punishment.
In many municipalities firefighters are volunteers. Here we pay them the highest salaries in the state and gift them a 7 figure retirement on their 55th birthday. Why are we the only place in the world to pay our firefighters more than physicians ? Because their union has hoodwinked you and everyone else into thinking we must. Even though every new FF job opening has hundreds of capable, qualified applicants. Nothing about this job is worth this much money. Montecito is a tiny town. In comparison, if this was fair compensation for the market, LA's fire chief would be paid $10m a year. Instead we are fleeced again by the public unions and their insatiable appetite for your money and your grand kids future. BTW: Calfire teams are paid a fraction of the salaries the municipalities and work longer hours and much, much more difficult duties.
