Gregg Hart is a Santa Barbara County Supervisor, representing the 2nd Supervisorial District. He grew up in Santa Barbara, attended local public schools, and graduated from SBCC and UCSB. Gregg’s dedication to public service was inspired by his parents, who spent their lives working for the community: His mother worked as an elementary school teacher, and his father was the Library Director for the City and County of Santa Barbara.
While we are thankful for the rain received this winter, Santa Barbara must be a responsible steward of our precious water resources. I am pleased with the success we have had in diversifying our local water portfolio and with the efforts of our residents to conserve water. We must continue to look to the future and ensure that we have a safety net in place so that our city can continue to thrive while ensuring water security and environmental responsibility.
