Citywide Strategic Plan

Body

The City of Santa Barbara’s Citywide Strategic Plan (2026–2028) is a three-year roadmap designed to align City resources with community priorities and deliver measurable results. Developed through extensive engagement with residents, City Council, and staff, the plan focuses on four key areas: economic vitality, community resiliency and safety, housing and social services, and organizational excellence. By setting clear objectives and launching a First-Year Work Plan, the City aims to improve customer service, strengthen infrastructure, expand housing opportunities, and foster a high-performing organization. This plan will guide decision-making, ensure accountability through regular progress reporting, and create lasting impacts that enhance quality of life for all who live, work, and visit Santa Barbara.
