flood control

The City of San Luis Obispo is preparing to move forward with its largest flood control project in its history. The project covers more than eight acres along South Higuera Street and surrounding areas.

A highly invasive bamboo-like plant is growing at the bottom of San Luis Creek, near the Los Osos Valley Road bridge. The Land Conservancy of SLO County is working with the city and a local property owner to chop it down.
