Post-Fire Flooding and Debris Flow Potential Storm Planning Update

On Monday, December 3, 2018 the Santa Barbara County Office of Emergency Management released its , clearly showing ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ outside of the evacuation zone. We’re delighted that the Sheriff’s Department has given us the highest commendation for our shelter-in-place program. In the snapshot below, the campus is the larger yellow area to the right of the legend. Yellow identifies schools in this map; note Cold Spring School below ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½. Neither appears in the darker yellow identifying a "school to close during evacuation." This means that county officials expect ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ and Cold Spring to be safe from destructive flooding or debris flow.
