Native Flora of Estero Bay
Native Flora of Estero Bay Michael Walgren Jeremy Beaulieu Lisa Andreano 1 Introduction The botanical history of the Morro Bay area can be traced through the ice ages as our coastline receded and advanced over thousands of years. As plate tectonics moved landmasses to their current positions, so evolution moved the forms of life from early uni-cellular organisms to the dinosaurs to our current flora and fauna. As landmasses continue to move continents and ice ages continue their cycle of advance and retreat, so too does evolution continue to change our local plants. Locally, the history of geologic change is most notable in our prominent volcanic plugs known as “the Morros.” Changes in landforms are also evident in the Baywood fine sands that form the soils of the Los Osos area. Baywood fine sands are highly organic sands blown from ancient dunes. Evolution is evident in the diversity of floral species, as well as the occurrence of unique populations on their way to speciation, sub- speciation, or extinction. Of all the things to be appreciated about the Estero Bay, and probably the most important, is in spite of increasing human encroachment this region of San Luis Obispo County still resembles its natural state. For this reason, this area has a high number of rare and under-reported species, some of which are found here and nowhere else in the world. This makes the conservation of as much open space as possible much more important to preserve this genetic information from being lost forever. The purpose of this field guide is to provide means to excite and captivate even the staunchest anti- environmentalist to the truly extraordinarily diverse and beautiful plants found nestled in our tiny corner of California.

Periodic Review of the San Luis Obispo County LCP, Chapter 8
Periodic Review of the San Luis Obispo County LCP Preliminary Report February 2, 2001 (As revised to incorporate errata/clarifications of the July 12, 2001 action) CHAPTER 8: SCENIC AND VISUAL RESOURCES A. POLICY FRAMEWORK The Coastal Act requires protection of scenic and visual qualities of coastal areas as a resource of public importance. New development must be sited and designed to protect views to and along the ocean and scenic coastal areas. Development must also minimize landform alteration, be compatible with the character of its surroundings and, where feasible, restore and enhance visual quality in visually degraded areas. In highly scenic areas, new development is required to be subordinate to its setting. The Coastal Act also requires that Highway One remain a scenic, two- lane road through the rural areas of the state. The Coastal Act also specifically protects the character of special coastal communities that may have unique characteristics or are popular visitor destination points (Sections 30251, 30253). Following the Coastal Act, the primary goals of the San Luis Obispo LCP visual protection policies are to protect unique landscapes, restore visually degraded areas, site new development in such a way as to direct it out of public view corridors and minimize visual intrusions, minimize landform alterations and blend contours with natural terrain, preserve native vegetation, encourage the undergrounding of public utilities, limit the size and placement of commercial signs, prohibit development on sandy beaches and dunes, and limit development on bluff faces. The policies are variously implemented through standards, and the four Area Plans. The LCP also contains standards to address development in special communities such as Cayucos and Cambria.

Terrace Hill Open Space history Terrace Hill is the only open space property included in the City of San Luis Obispo’s “Contributing Property List of Historic Resources” due to its association with important historic events and people. Many San Luis Obispo families experienced life on The Morros the slopes of Terrace Hill, Terrace Hill is one of nine “Morros,” geologically speaking. The Morros are ancient including the Callaway and volcanic peaks that have eroded to the core plugs. The ancient peaks, located on the Pacific Plate, originated some 400 miles southeast near the present-day area of San Mazza families. Diego during the Miocene era about 25 million years ago. Known as the “Nine Sisters,” or sometimes the “Seven Sisters,” the Morros include Morro Rock (State Historical Landmark No. 821), Black Hill, Cerro Cabrillo, Hollister Peak, Cerro Romauldo, The Callaway Family Chumash Peak, Bishop Peak, Cerro San Luis Obispo, Islay Hill. and The deeply In March of 2010, an oral history was Davidson’s Seamount Righetti Hill Terrace Hill submerged in Estero Bay, and are undertaken with the now late Bill Callaway (Mountains of Fire: San Luis Obispo’s Famous typically omitted from the named sisters (retired City of San Luis Obispo Fire Nine Sisters- A Chain of Ancient Volcanic Peaks.
