Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office to Pursue ‘Zero Tolerance’ Policing for Deltopia Weekend

Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office says it will pursue “zero tolerance” enforcement over Deltopia weekend this year.

Deltopia, a large unsanctioned block party on Isla Vista’s Del Playa Drive, takes place during the first weekend of UC Santa Barbara’s spring quarter. Last year, the Daily Nexus, one of UCSB’s student newspapers, reported that approximately 25,000 people attended. Along with music and crowds of partygoers, the event typically generates hundreds of medical calls as well as citations and arrests from law enforcement.
