Santa Barbara Santa Maria San Luis Obispo, CA, October 27, 2026 —

California State Assemblymember for Santa Barbara Gregg Hart has endorsed Devon Wardlow for Santa Barbara City Council, District 4. The endorsement cites Wardlow’s experience on the Planning Commission and identifies several issues connected to her candidacy.

Those priorities include housing affordability, preserving community character, wildfire preparedness, environmental protection and reproductive freedom. The summary of the endorsement does not provide specific proposals or examples of Wardlow’s work on those issues. It also does not describe her Planning Commission service in further detail.

The endorsement is presented in an opinion piece that encourages District 4 residents to vote for Wardlow. Hart’s support is the central development described; the available information does not include a statement from Wardlow, details about other endorsements, or responses from other candidates.

The date of the endorsement and the timing of the City Council election were not provided. The summary also does not give information about the other candidates in District 4, the length or substance of Hart’s explanation for his support, or any campaign events connected to the endorsement. No direct quotations were supplied.

As described, the endorsement links Wardlow’s Planning Commission experience with a set of policy priorities, but it does not specify how she would pursue them if elected. The information provided therefore establishes Hart’s support and the issues emphasized in the opinion piece, without detailing campaign plans, election circumstances or the views of other District 4 residents.
