April 2017, San Luis Ranch News
San Luis Ranch (SLR) is a proposed, mixed-use, farm-to-table community located on the former site of Dalidio Ranch. It is a plan grounded in the core values and character of the SLO community – respectful of its past yet vital to its future. SLR will help fulfill the workforce housing need, connect landmark trails and honor local agriculture heritage, with an exceptional level of integration and mobility that reduces reliance on automobiles. Featuring mini and micro lot sizes, multi-family dwellings, and the latest in energy and water reduction technologies, this neighborhood will point us toward a greener, more sustainable future. San Luis Ranch includes up to 580 residential units, 150,000 square feet of commercial development, 100,000 square feet of office development, a 200-room hotel, and preserves approximately 60 acres of contiguous agriculture and beautiful open spaces enhanced by an Agricultural Heritage Learning Center.
Over the next few months there will be several public hearings with the City of San Luis Obispo to move San Luis Ranch through the approval process. If affordable and workforce housing is important to you, please let your voice be heard- attend public meetings if you can. If you are unable to attend, you can submit your letter of support on the City’s website. We will be posting City meetings involving San Luis Ranch on our website. In addition, the City’s website – www.slocity.org will have meeting agendas posted. There is also a local group – dwellforward – bringing people together and educating them about the housing approval process on the Central Coast -www.dwellforward.org.
The SLR team is so excited about this unique community and we are committed to making it happen. As our leader, Gary Grossman says “this is a legacy project, providing a home for every hope and dream.” You can hear more from Gary on our website – www.sanluisranch.com/media.
