Santa Paula Ca Zoning

The Santa Paula City Council agreed Monday to make it easier for antique shops, theaters and pool halls to open in downtown Santa Paula, streamlining a sometimes costly and time-consuming permit process. Supported last month by the Planning Commission, the zoning amendment was proposed by merchants at a February town hall meeting as a way for the city to reduce the red tape businesses encounter.

"We've been taking a lot of comments from people that there is too much regulation," Assistant City Planner Jeff Hamilton said before the vote.

The Santa Paula City Council on Monday approved the creation of a four-tiered safety zone around the Santa Paula Airport that bans residential construction under the flight path near the runway. On a 4-1 vote with Councilman Alfonso C. Urias dissenting, the council adopted the state-mandated airport approach zone, which is intended to reduce potential hazards near the privately owned airport.
