Subject:Planning Commission: Froom Ranch Specific Plan
To the Planning Commissioners:
It is heartening to see your recommendation to the City Council that they approve the Froom Ranch Specific Plan, Final
EIR, and project entitlements. I speak in particular of the Villaggio Life Plan Community. Like many others who have
signed up for Villaggio, I spent a number of years shepherding my parents into various types of care as they aged. I
would like to spare my children the same job, especially as I want to remain in San Luis Obispo for the rest of my life.
Right now, that would involve a patchwork of care options, and some very good luck.
Villaggio would provide continuing care in the same place for its residents, many of whom are already residents of San
Luis Obispo County.
My residence in San Luis Obispo County dates from 1960 - this is my 60th year here. I love it here, support the
community, and want to stay. I'm not alone. Villaggio would be a valuable addition for our senior population and their
families.
You already know how desirable the facility would be. The issues around its location and impact on the community can
be negotiated, (many already have been), with positive outcomes for everyone. Thank you for your thoughtful
consideration and recommendation for this important project.
Wendy Brown
