Oceano residents south of Levee ordered to evacuate

March 14, 2023

By KAREN VELIE

San Luis Obispo County has issued an evacuation order for Oceano residents who live south of the Arroyo Grande Creek Levee.

Oceano residents who live south of the Arroyo Grande Creek Channel for 1 mile and West of Highway 1 should evacuate immediately. Evacuation orders are also in place for the area south of Pier Avenue to the ocean, north and east of Strand Way and River Avenue, and east to the railroad tracks and back up to Pier Avenue.

Rain is expected to fill the Arroyo Grande Creek Channel and possibly overflow the south levee.

Detailed maps for evacuation order and warning areas are available at ReadySLO.org.

Believe it, or not, this particular area is exactly where some particularly foolish and ignorant “movers and shakers“ in the community (I’ll be courteous, and not name names) want to build a shopping center and offices and more homes. And they are being taken seriously! If the creek don’t get you, rising sea level will… sooner than most people realize. Grab a clue folks.
