Goleta plans to be on track to add 1,837 new homes over the next eight years, part of the city’s effort to satisfy California’s push to reach the building of 180,000 homes annually.

But it means the aquifer below Goleta is filling, which the Goleta Water District anticipates will allow it to lift the moratorium on new water meters sometime this year.
