IVFP to Propose Weekend-Long Noise Ordinance on Deltopia
Isla Vista Foot Patrol plans to propose a 72-hour festival ordinance on Deltopia weekend, effectively canceling Isla Vista’s annual unsanctioned street festival.
The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors will vote on the proposed changes during a January meeting. The current ordinance prohibits amplified music between 6 p.m.
Deltopia, first held in 2008 but popularized in 2009 as Floatopia, occurs during the first weekend of spring quarter. Over the years, the festival has seen a growing number of attendees, with many coming from out of town.
A town hall meeting is scheduled for November 12, where IVFP and IVCSD representatives will discuss the proposed ordinance.
