• Atascadero could pay up to $450,000 to homeowner for 2023 winter storm damage (sanluisobispo.com) — A recent jury trial at the Paso Robles branch of San Luis Obispo County Superior Court found Atascadero and homeowner Aaron Spiller equally responsible for catastrophic 2023 storm damage that forced his family from their home. The split-liability verdict means Atascadero could owe up to $450,000 after a future damages phase, with city officials vowing to limit taxpayer impact and the homeowner’s attorney arguing the city failed to act quickly on a dangerous creek blockage.
