Despite an economic upturn, Santa Barbara County is looking at 60-90 million dollar budget deficit as we kick off the new year.

County supervisors say 90 million is a worse case scenario. Some of the options include job cuts, curbing employee pensions, and fewer board of supervisor meetings.

We sat down with newly-elected 5th District Supervisor Steve Lavagnino to get some answers.

Watch KSBY News tonight at 5 and 6 for more on how the county's future could affect you.
