The SCAC meets at 6:30 pm on the 4th Monday of each month in the Nipomo Community Services District building at 148 S Wilson in Nipomo. The minutes and agendas of our meetings are on this website. The chair of the Council is Jerry Bridge . Geographic Location Nipomo is not incorporated as a city. It is a large rural area with some suburban development and a population of about 22,000. Nipomo is located in the southwestern and south coastal portion of San Luis Obispo County, California. The Nipomo inland south county planning area encompasses approximately 82,000 acres (128 square miles), and includes the Nipomo urban area, the four village areas of Black Lake, Palo Mesa, Los Berros, Callender-Garrett, as well as the South County rural area. What does the SCAC do? The SCAC is a group of local citizens elected by the community with the purpose of representing the community to the Board of Supervisors (BOS). The SCAC is an advisory council, but one without the authority to tax or enact ordinances. The SCAC lacks the capacity to implement many of its positions directly and seeks to accomplish those goals through county government. The SCAC provides the Nipomo community with a separate link to county government which supplements its 4th District representative. To Provide a voice for Nipomo and the South County Planning Area, the SCAC: Holds public meetings Surveys community opinion Speaks for the community to the BOS Acts as clearinghouse for local, state, and federal funding for community projects Coordinates with community organizations and other local governmental bodies Is authorized by statute to advise BOS on matters of public health, safety, welfare, public works, and planning Note: The county may choose to use an AC as a planning advisory council to draft or revise the community’s portion of the county general plan. They review land use proposals for their communities; conduct studies; and make recommendations concerning traffic, incorporation, street lighting, flooding and drainage, emergency services, commercial maintenance, disaster planning, public transit and others. ACs have sponsored the establishment of county service areas for parks, road maintenance, supplementary police services, etc. ACs develop from many different origins to serve widely different purposes.
