Water Master Plan
The San Luis Obispo County General Plan has established boundaries
between the urban areas and the suburban/rural areas through the use of
the Urban Services Line (USL) and the Urban Reserve Line (URL).
The USL is an interior boundary around the urban areas of the
community. The following
three water purveyors exist within the USL boundary:
-
LOCSD
(referred herein as the LOCSD water service area)
-
Cal
Cities (Southern California Water Company); and
-
S
& T Mutual Water Company
In order to determine
the existing and future population of the LOCSD water service area, a
detailed analysis of vacant properties was performed.
Based on this survey, 470 additional units may be developed within
the LOCSD water service area at build-out.
As many of these parcels are within the “prohibition zone”,
significant development will not occur until such time that wastewater
facilities become available (late 2005 to 2006).
Population within the
LOCSD water service area is projected to increase 14.4 percent (at
build-out), from the current population of 8,149 to 9,324.
Build-out of the LOCSD water service area is anticipated to occur
around Year 2008. Cal-Cities
will see the most growth and development within the USL, anticipating an
increase in population of over 40 percent.
Population in the S&T Mutual Water Company service area is
essentially at build-out at this time, and no further growth is projected
for this service area. Thus, within the prohibition zone, a 25 percent overall increase in population (from 14,233 to
17,803) is anticipated to
reach build-out, once the moratorium is lifted.
The total population surveyed by the above-referenced water
purveyors is expected to reach 19,692 at build-out, which is anticipated
to occur around Year 2015.
