Templeton Area Advisory Group elects leaders 

TAAG

The Templeton Area Advisory Group, the organization designated by San Luis Obispo County to provide feedback and recommendations to the county board of supervisors, the planning commission, the planning department and other agencies that request community input on land use and planning matters that affect Templeton, held an election on March 5 from 5-8 p.m. at the Templeton Community Services District Board Room, located at 420 Crocker Street. The election was administered by the League of Women Voters and every registered voter in the Templeton Unified School District boundaries was eligible to vote.
