What You Can Do

  • Become informed: See the links page for direct access to more information.
  • Talk to your neighbors: There is a lot to consider, and hearing multiple viewpoints can reveal hidden facets.
  • Make your position known: The SHRC invites comments on the nominations from the public either in writing or at the scheduled public meeting on February 7 2025.
  • Take Action:
    • If you support the nomination, there is nothing you need to do. Support is assumed.
    • If you oppose the nomination, you must submit a signed affidavit using specific wording to the SHRC no later than January 31, 2025.
      • To have your affidavit included in a group submission, mail it to:

        bhhd.info
        PO Box 90135
        Santa Barbara CA 93190-0135


        You may also use the contact form to have it picked up.
