Planning Commission sets special hearing for Oct. 21, adjusts fall schedule

Santa Barbara County Planning Commission · August 13, 2026

Summary

The commission agreed to a special hearing on Oct. 21 to hear a streamlining ordinance package and cancelled several regular meeting dates, with a Sept. 30 workshop moved to 1 p.m.

As part of routine calendar management the commission and staff agreed to shuffle fall hearing dates so the Montecito Planning Commission hearings and County Planning Commission schedule align with a long‑range planning streamlining ordinance package. Staff proposed a special County Planning Commission hearing on Oct. 21 (with Oct. 28 as a contingency if additional time is needed), a Sept. 30 workshop starting at 1 p.m., and cancellation of the Oct. 7 and Oct. 14 County Planning Commission meetings.

Commissioners moved and passed the scheduling changes during the projection report discussion and instructed staff to reflect the changes in the projection report and to coordinate outreach. The commission also approved canceling the Sept. 2 meeting that had no items projected.
