A YMCA in the Santa Ynez Valley proposes to keep one of its exercise rooms open 24/7 with key card access for customers who pay for the membership, but no staff on-site at night. Two neighbors appealed the plan to the Santa Barbara County Planning Commission, citing previous issues with the YMCA and concerns about its impact on the neighborhood. Staff Writer Taylor O’Connor writes about the issue and what decision commissioners made [6].
This week, you can also read about how the Dana Reserve’s potential property tax revenue got between the Nipomo CSD and San Luis Obispo County [4]; a Lompoc woman’s eclectic watercolors at the Cypress Gallery [30]; and Jonata Winery celebrates 20 years of Ballard Canyon wines [33].
