San Luis Obispo, Calif. (March 16, 2020) – The San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) joins local, state, national, and global efforts to curtail the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) by implementing new measures to help strengthen our local response to the outbreak.
To continue delivering on SLOCOG’s mission to keep the San Luis Obispo region moving—and to ensure the health of SLOCOG’s employees, their families, and the public—SLOCOG is undertaking the following actions to prevent the spread of this virus and support public health:

SLOCOG encourages the public to watch Board meetings via SLO-SPAN.
- SLOCOG encourages employees to work from home.
- SLOCOG suspends all business-related travel through the end of March.
