In an effort to expand public access to government records, and to preserve an extensive survey of local history, UC Santa Barbara and Santa Barbara County have joined forces to digitize and archive 127 years worth of legislative records.
From construction of the now-iconic county courthouse to the purchase
of the beloved County Bowl, the Santa Barbara County Board of
Supervisors debated and decided many of the matters that made the
seaside city what it is today. Each and every one of their discussions
was recorded — first by hand, later by typewriter — and saved in minute
books of board meetings from the first recorded day of county history,
November 18, 1850, into early April 1977, when archiving moved to
microfiche.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
