Driscoll's makes solar transition

Driscoll’s has installed 3,384 solar panels on its 155,000-square-foot cooling facility in Santa Maria, CA, which is estimated to generate 1.4 million kilowatt-hours of power annually. In addition to solar power, Driscoll’s has installed a battery storage system that can hold up to 700 kilowatt-hours. Together, both systems will allow the company to offset about 92% of the facility’s energy usage, generating a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to removing more than 7,750 cars from the road over the course of 25 years.

SBCAG Accepts Final Regional Housing Needs Allocation Determination, Down 15% from Early Draft

By Jade Martinez-Pogue, Noozhawk Staff Writer | @MartinezPogue February 19, 2021 | 8:18 p.m. The Santa Barbara County Association of Governments has received the final Regional Housing Needs Allocation determination, which fell about 15% below the previous draft number presented to the board of directors in November. The RHNA is the state’s fair share housing law that requires local governments to plan for the minimum number of housing units across four income groups. SBCAG, acting as the regional government agency for Santa Barbara County, is responsible for developing a methodology to allocate the housing units across the county. The county’s final RHNA determination for the eight-year cycle of 2023-31 is 24,856 housing units. That number was adjusted down from 29,313, the previous draft number determined by the California Department of Housing and Community Development in November.
