To the Mayor and City Council of the City of Santa Barbara:
I would like to point out that when there is a need, people will find a way to meet it. There is obviously a definite and ongoing need for the kind of overnight housing that Airbnb and VRBO offer. You are in the process of making criminals of otherwise law-abiding people who are just trying to make it in this expensive city.
I do not understand why it is not possible to control any negative impact in our residential neighborhoods by dealing with problems as they come up.
