Recruiting for Oversight Boards of Former Redevelopment Agencies

The County of Santa Barbara is currently soliciting applications from the public-at-large to fill member appointments on the Successor Agency Oversight Boards of each of the (7) former Redevelopment Agencies (RDAs) throughout the County of Santa Barbara.
