Experience that matters

Joan Hartmann

for Santa Barbara County Supervisor, 3rd District

Joan Hartmann served as Supervisor Doreen Farr’s Planning Commissioner for the Third District from 2012 – 2016.

During that time, she gained real insight to the challenges facing our County. Joan understands that the first job of local government is to make sure our residents and visitors are safe and secure.

This means more than maintaining high quality police and fire protection; it means ensuring that we have safe roads, reliable safe water, a healthy economy and a healthy environment.

"On the issues, we know Hartmann will leave few stones unearthed to protect the Gaviota Coast, keeping it one of the most ridiculously beautiful spots on the planet...Her opponent is less specific about preserving the Gaviota Coast and definitely less informed about development issues. We know Hartmann wants the job. We also know she’ll work like a fiend once she gets it. And we believe she’ll figure out a way to work well with her fellow supervisors — even those on the other side — once she’s there. We urge a vote for Joan Hartmann. "
