Summer is here, and that means it's time to dust off the RV, hitch up the boat, and hit the road. But before you do, the City of Goleta wants to remind everyone about the rules for parking those oversized toys. According to a recent piece in the Goleta Monarch Press, the city is highlighting its standards for parking on unpaved surfaces and for recreational vehicles. It's a good refresher for anyone who stores a trailer or motorhome on their property—or plans to.
These rules help keep our neighborhoods safe, clean, and neighborly. Whether you're a full-time RVer or just getting ready for a summer camping trip, knowing where and how you can park your vehicle can save you a headache and a citation. So take a minute to review the guidelines, and then enjoy all the outdoor fun the Central Coast has to offer.

These gatherings have become a quiet Goleta tradition: staff and council members showing up without podiums, just listening to what's on your mind, from Old Town to the Goodland. As the Goleta Monarch Press reminds us, this is the last one of the year, so it's your final 2026 window to bend an ear about sidewalks, parks, or that intersection you keep grumbling about. Bring the kids, bring your questions, bring a neighbor who never reads the city newsletter. 805 life is built on mornings like this.

GoletaGoleta Lemon Run Recap
What a morning it was in Goleta! The 11th Annual Lemon Run drew 865 runners to our streets on September 20th, and honestly, the numbers only tell half the story. Nearly 100 volunteers showed up before sunrise to hand out bibs, staff water stations, and cheer on every single finisher. More than 1,100 people stuck around afterward, which says everything about how our town shows up for each other. For a city that grew up around lemon orchards, this race has become a genuine Goleta tradition, part fundraiser, part neighborhood reunion. Whether you were chasing a personal best or just out for a walk with the dog, you were part of something bigger than a 5K. Big thanks to Goleta Monarch Press for keeping us posted on the results and the community turnout. See you at the starting line next year, Goleta!
