SANTA MARIA-- Today, Santa Barbara County Action Network (SB CAN) announced its endorsements in the upcoming Santa Barbara County Supervisorial Primary Elections on June 3.  The SB CAN Board of Directors endorsed Doreen Farr for the 3rd District Supervisor and John Sterling for the 4th District Supervisor.

 

SB CAN sent questionnaires on a variety of issues to all of the Supervisorial Candidates to find out where they stand on issues important to the entire county, including affordable and workforce housing, preserving agriculture and open space, and alternative transportation.

 

SB CAN endorses Farr and Sterling as the candidates who will provide leadership during a difficult budget time for the County, while preserving vital services, protecting the environment, and meeting critical needs for housing and alternative transportation.

 

As a former planning commissioner, business person and community leader, Ms. Farr has had significant experience and success working with others to tackle complex issues that County leaders face on a daily basis. She is informed, focused and detailed in the way that she will address land use policies, county services, and constituent needs.

 

Mr. Sterling, a former city manager and police chief, believes that “an informed and involved public is key to a successful government.” He is well known for his ability to bring together people from diverse backgrounds and with differing viewpoints to solve tough problems. 

These candidates demonstrate commitment to the SB CAN’s core principles of social justice, environmental protection, sustainable transportation, and conservation and expansion of affordable housing throughout Santa BarbaraCounty
