Heal the Ocean to the Rescue

Gary Fall, Santa Barbara News-Press

“Last year, an abandoned homeless camp surrounded by trash, bicycle parts, car batteries, flooded tents and other materials became an eyesore on a Montecito beach.

All of that stood on the Graveyards beach at the base of the cliff below the Santa Barbara Cemetery.

On Thursday, Heal the Ocean got a call about the eyesore from a concerned citizen. It took all day that Friday for the organization to figure out what to do about it legally, since you can’t remove a homeless camp in use. . .”
