Carpinteria planners approve groundwater wells easement
The Carpinteria Planning Commission was originally scheduled Tuesday to discuss the upcoming plans to turn the vacant The Palms restaurant and connected residential units into a brand-new hotel, but a last-minute adjustment forced a postponement, leaving the commission to focus instead on the first steps of planning a groundwater monitoring wells project at El Carro Park. The groundwater wells were also originally intended for a two-part hearing, which would have given the chance for the commission to approve both the easement allowing the city to use the land for water wells and the permits necessary for the actual construction.
