In just the latest example of a Santa Barbara County cannabis appeal squashed by the California Coastal Commission, an appeal of a 25,000-square-foot G&K Farms processing plant at 3561 Foothill Road in Carpinteria fell through during Wednesday’s meeting, but not before commissioner (and Santa Barbara city councilmember) Meagan Harmon shared her frustration with the never-ending wave of marijuana-related appeals coming out of the county.
“It’s not without some frustration that I find us again having another conversation related to a cannabis appeal,” Harmon said. “It’s clear there are obvious issues at the county level that must be addressed.”

This most recent appeal was filed by Carpinteria resident Sarah Triguero, who has been no stranger to fighting the spread of the cannabis industry in the county. Triguero has filed multiple appeals of cannabis projects, including an earlier appeal against G&K Farms and one of its co-owners, Graham Farrar of Glass House Farms.
