Good morning, Santa Barbara ☀️

Here’s what we have for you today:

  • Santa Barbara County looks to expand solar energy projects
  • The Dallas Cowboys take over Oxnard and draw people from the region
  • ‘Makeout’ point gets the cold shoulder from the city of Santa Barbara
  • Alexander Stoeber talks ‘Star Wars’ and City Council candidacy

  • Fiesta kicks off Wednesday! Expect to see the News-Press team covering Fiesta events through the weekend. If you have appeared in the Santa Barbara News-Press for any kind of Fiesta coverage over the years, let me know and I will try to find it in our archives and publish it later in the week! 😊
