In
1995, to bring greater guidance and a more proactive approach to the

conserve, enhance, and restore important community natural
resources.
Today, the City of San Luis Obispo:

passive recreation. The City additionally operates numerous
smaller areas.
-
Holds 9 major conservation easements for habitat, recreational,
and agricultural purposes.
