HomeMy WebLinkAbout04-13-16 PC Correspondence - Item 1 (Flores)Whenever I am returning to San Luis Obispo, via
Highway 1, 227, the 101, and see the thick layer
of smog. That now hangs over my hometown. The
question comes to mind - does the Planning ('om-
mission/City Officials feel and embarassTient or
guilt, for creating the infrastructure that led,
to this layer of smog?
For the better part of my life. I have walked
two blocks to purchased groceries. But, due to
repeated closures of the neighborhood grocery
store. I have been put in the position of hav-
ing to drive across town, to purchase groceries.
What was once was, a ten minute drive. Can now
be, a one hour in each direction, traffic jam
of hostile -scofflaw drivers. Now I am part of
the problem, created by the Planning Commission/
City Officials. Do you feel any embarassment or
guilt for creating this traffic mess?
Once again, another subdivision is being pro-
posed. That will destroy, what has been, his-
torically farmland. This sibdivision will cre=
ate more traffic on Orcutt Road and Johnson
Avenue; adding to the layer of smog. Plus,
this subdivision will be a burden on San Luis
Obispo's resources; water, sewage, emrgancy
services, school system. But, I am guessing
nothing will be done to stop this subdivision.
Because making money is more impbi-tant. Then
protecting the enviroment or San Luis Obispo's
quality of life. Or, this tid-bit is true, that
has been going around San-Lais Obispo - That
once a developer(s) put money into the system.
No matter how bad the project is for the en-
viroment or San Luis Obispo's quality of life,
or how many appeals, The developer(s) will get
their way. Which would explain how casual city
officials are: to destroying farmland, building
in railroad blast zones, building in airport
flight paths, building in historic and well
documented flood zones.
Thank you for your time,
G.R. Flores
