As the "Voice of the Community" the Montecito Association is committed to the preservation, protection and enhancement of the semi-rural, residential character of Montecito in the spirit of the Community Plan.

The Montecito Association is a nonprofit community association. We are supported by our membership, comprised of Montecito residents, property owners and businesses. With the support of our members, the Association monitors issues affecting Montecito. We monitor the activities of the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors, follow land use developments and issues and strive to address the day-to-day concerns of Montecito residents.
Through the Association's participation in County decision-making processes, we serve as a voice for the Community. That voice is used in pursuit of the goal of maintaining the character of the community and advocating for adherence to the Montecito Community Plan. (Click the image below for organization documents for the Montecito Association.)
We encourage open communication and dialog between community members and all are invited to attend our monthly board meetings on the second Tuesday of each month 4 PM in person or via Zoom and periodic community forums on issues of interest to Montecito residents.
The strong sense of community in Montecito is fostered by several annual events hosted by the Association, including the Village 4th of July Celebration, Beautification Day, and the Holiday Magic Parade. Learn more on our Events Page.
