“The Public Works Department recently was able to take advantage of a relatively inexpensive subsurface repair method to fix the dip on Cathedral Oaks Road, said Goleta Public Works director Charlie Ebeling. We are excited to take advantage of the success and cost savings of that project to be able to follow it up with repairs to the sidewalk and roadway surface in this area. Staff worked very quickly and efficiently to get a contractor ready to complete the surface improvements shortly after the success of the dip repair project.”
City staff will be working with the contractor to minimize impacts to the public; however, the project will require closure of half of the roadway at a time to complete the pavement work. Traffic control will be in place, and flaggers will be directing two-way traffic for the one open lane.

In other personnel moves, congratulations to my friend, Kirsten McLaughlin, Cox Communications’ market vice president and the new board chairwoman of the Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce.

I was privileged to twice serve as chairman of the old Goleta chamber, the first time during the Great Recession and the second time during the coronavirus crisis and the simultaneous intentional economic shutdown. I’ve already written myself a note reminding me to say no if I’m ever invited back for a third time.
