Description: <p>This feature layer represents the defined city limits of the City of Santa Barbara. It provides polygon geometries that delineate the spatial extent of the city boundaries.</p><p><strong>Key aspects of this layer include:</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Ownership designation:</strong> Each boundary polygon indicates whether the area is owned by the city or the county, offering valuable jurisdictional information.</li><li><strong>Spatial measurements:</strong> Attributes such as the area and perimeter of each city limit polygon enable precise spatial analysis and mapping.</li></ul><p>This data is essential for urban planning, governance, property management, and geographic analysis involving municipal boundaries. It supports decision-making processes related to zoning, service delivery, and administrative jurisdiction. By visualizing and querying city limits along with ownership categories, stakeholders can effectively manage resources and coordinate activities within the city's geographic scope.</p><p>Fro more information, click <a target="_blank" href="https://open-data-cosb-ent.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/ff27ba69250c4f40aa2cd385c38a73a4_0/explore?location=34.667523%2C-120.035672%2C10"><strong>County of Santa Barbara Open Data</strong></a></p><p><strong>Last Update</strong>: 2022</p>

Description: <p>This feature layer delineates specific geographic regions classified as high fire hazard zones within the City of Santa Barbara, focusing on areas where accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs) are prohibited due to elevated wildfire risks. These zones include classifications such as <strong>Extreme Foothill</strong> and <strong>Foothill</strong> hazard areas.</p><p>Represented as polygon features, this data facilitates the identification and visualization of exclusion zones where construction of ADUs/JADUs is restricted to mitigate potential fire hazards. The layer attributes include the hazard zone classification and whether an assessment has been conducted for the area.</p><p>Such a layer is valuable for urban planners, fire safety officials, developers, and policy makers to ensure compliance with fire safety regulations, aid in risk management, and support informed decision-making related to land use and building permits in fire-prone areas for the City of Santa Barbara.</p><p><strong>Last Update</strong>: 2020</p>

Description: <p>This feature layer represents geographic zones where zoning regulations allow the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) in the City of Santa Barbara. It features polygon geometries delineating various zoning designations across a specific jurisdiction.</p><p><strong>Purpose:</strong> The layer serves as a comprehensive spatial dataset that helps stakeholders identify areas permitting ADUs/JADUs, supporting urban planning, housing development strategies, and regulatory compliance.</p><p><strong>Data and Attributes:</strong> The polygons are categorized into zoning codes that specify whether ADU/JADU development is allowed or prohibited, reflecting current land-use policies. Key attributes summarize zoning designations, special district indicators, and area measurements, enhancing the contextual understanding of zoning regulations.</p><p><strong>Applications:</strong> This data is valuable for city planners, developers, policymakers, and community organizations aiming to promote affordable housing solutions and better understand zoning constraints. It facilitates informed decision-making on land use and housing development by clearly distinguishing permissible zones for ADU/JADU construction.</p><p><strong>Last Update</strong>: 2020</p>
