Santa Barbara County

Santa Barbara County runs from the coastal cities through the Santa Ynez Valley to the northern communities around Santa Maria and Lompoc. Its public agencies include the county government, several cities, water and sanitation districts, school districts, and a significant higher education presence.

Distance between communities and a mix of urban and rural service areas shape the work: connectivity to remote facilities, field applications for inspectors and crews, emergency management technology in a county with real wildfire and flood exposure, and the same cloud, security, and resident-service modernization that agencies everywhere are working through.
