Preserve the SLO Life
Recognizing the challenges of community development, Preserve the SLO Life (PTSL) is a community organization committed to protecting the quality of life and environment in the City of San Luis Obispo and surrounding areas. We are not against growth but advocate for responsible growth in a transparent way. Our mission is accomplished through leadership, civic action, education, and fundraising.
Impacts of Community Development
PTSL takes the position that community development means that all community growth impacts including; water, sewer, roads (infrastructure), traffic, noise, biological factors and pollution all should be equally weighted with pure economic factors when development projects are planned, approved and implemented.
