Summary
The Santa Barbara City Board of Architectural Review postponed a continued project review for 1200 Coast Village Road at the applicant's request and noted a 90‑day permit‑streamlining deadline extension; staff said written public comments will be distributed at the project's next hearing, tentatively set for May 26.
The Santa Barbara City Board of Architectural Review on April 27 postponed a continued project design review for the property at 1200 Coast Village Road at the applicant’s request, citing the need for more time to prepare a complete plan set for PDA consideration.
Staff told the board the applicant had been granted a 90‑day extension of the permit‑streamlining deadline and that the item is tentatively expected to return to the board on May 26. The board did not take in‑person or remote public comment on the project at this meeting; staff said all written public comments on the item already received will be redistributed to the board and included in the record when the project returns.
“We will make sure that those public comment…pieces of public comment will be distributed at the next hearing,” a staff member said, noting written submissions will be circulated. The staff member also confirmed the board would not accept new in‑person or remote testimony on the item that night.
The postponement was described by staff as an indefinite hold pending a re‑notice of the application; no formal vote on the project’s merits took place. The board closed the item and moved on to other routine business.
Next steps: staff will re‑notice the item, redistribute written comments from members of the public, and schedule the project to return to the Board of Architectural Review with a refreshed plan set and staff recommendation.
