Fight Blight!
The “Broken Window Theory” states that if a community allows blight conditions to go undeterred, crime
increases, quality of life diminishes, and property values plummet. The City of San Luis Obispo maintains an
aggressive multi-department effort in order to reduce blighted conditions. You can help by reporting problem
properties to the proper department:
