Solana Beach City Council, District 4

This person holds your district's seat on Solana Beach's City Council. The council has five members, plus a citywide elected Mayor. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land use. An appointed city manager runs day to day operations. The term is four years.

Jenna Wolfe-Dellamano is running unopposed for an open Solana Beach City Council seat. Wolfe-Dellamano is the only candidate in District 4. Incumbent Jill MacDonald did not seek another term, and no one else filed. So Wolfe-Dellamano is elected once the ballot is certified.

This person holds District 4's seat on Solana Beach's 5-member City Council, alongside the citywide-elected Mayor. They vote on city ordinances, the budget, and land use, with day-to-day operations run by an appointed city manager. The term is four years.

This is the more open of Solana Beach's two races: MacDonald confirmed to The Coast News in May 2026 that she would not run again, and the city extended District 4's filing period to August 12 -- two weeks past the regular deadline -- specifically because no incumbent had filed. Even with the extension, only one candidate, Jenna Wolfe-Dellamano, qualified.

Jenna Wolfe-Dellamano

Jenna Wolfe-Dellamano is a Solana Beach business owner and nonprofit director. They founded Solana Beach Backpacks for Kids, which fights local food insecurity. They want to limit high-density development on the east side. They also want to preserve the city's character.
