“To say a lot is happening in Goleta these days is an understatement.

Hundreds of new housing units are opening or under construction, and high occupancy rates in hotels make City Manager Michelle Greene believe “if you build hotels in Goleta, people will come.”

Greene and Mayor Jim Farr updated the community on all things Goleta at Thursday’s State of the City luncheon put on by the city and Goleta Valley Chamber of Commerce.

Farr said some residents have complained to him about the constant hum of development in Goleta — saying the city was paving paradise — and that many projects built up in the development pipeline during the recession, leading to more activity now.”
