One person dies in SLO County E. coli outbreak, Public Health says

One person has died in connection with an E. coli outbreak in San Luis Obispo , the county Public Health Department confirmed Tuesday. “We can confirm that one individual associated with the E. coli outbreak has died,” San Luis Obispo County Public Health Department public information officer Tom Cuddy said in a statement. “We are sharing this information with the permission of the individual’s family. “This is truly a heartbreaking development, and our thoughts are with the family and everyone affected by this outbreak,” he added. “The entire team at Public Health extends our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones during this difficult time.” The department did not share additional information on the person who died. Last week, the health department announced it was wrapping up its investigation into the outbreak of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli that officials believed was tied to Brookshire Farms on Los Osos Valley Road. There have been five confirmed total cases of E. coli in the outbreak — though there were eight additional unconfirmed other cases reported as well, the health department previously said. Of those confirmed cases, three involved children who were receiving intensive care after developing Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. When reached

Layoffs hit KSBY in SLO as parent company downsizes nationwide

KSBY was a part of nationwide layoffs as its parent company eliminated over 430 positions amid a companywide transformation. But its unclear how many jobs were lost here or exactly what they were. In total, the NBC affiliate’s parent company E.W. Scripps Co. laid off 431 employees while also creating more than 100 new positions in its local newsrooms focused on field reporting and community connection, regional general manager Lisa Moore told The Tribune on Monday. “These were difficult decisions, and we’re grateful to the colleagues whose roles were eliminated,” Moore wrote in an email. “We’re committed to supporting them through the transition.” KSBY was among the Scripps stations affected by the layoffs, but Moore did not share the number of positions eliminated in the newsroom. The affected roles in San Luis Obispo were tied to traditional newscast production and station operations, not on-air anchor or reporter positions, she said. The mass layoffs were a part of Scripps’ companywide transformation to adapt broadcast, streaming and digital news formats. Most changes will happen behind the scenes, Moore said, with a new operating model and automation that will allow KSBY journalists to update stories throughout the day on broadcast, streaming, digital and

SLO County could face a $16 million budget deficit next year. Here's why

San Luis Obispo County is projected to face another multi-million budget gap next year, but uncertainty at the state and federal levels makes it difficult to predict the exact severity of the impending deficit. Assuming all current services are maintaining, the funding gap next year is estimated to be around $15.9 million — but it could range from as low as $11 million to as high as $20 million, according to the county’s fiscal year 2027-28 and multi-year financial forecast. The financial forecast is a point-in-time estimate that remains in flux and carries “a higher-than-usual level of uncertainty,” according to the staff report . “We always want to show that the forecast sensitivity cannot be understated,” SLO County’s assistant chief executive officer Lisa Howe said at the Nov. 3 Board of Supervisors meeting, adding that even a 1% change "can greatly impact the gap to the good or bad.” Howe said there are a variety of state, federal and external risks that will affect the county’s future finances. She pointed to HR 1, or the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, as the “most significant” factor, since it impacts CalFresh administration, medical eligibility and the amount of demand for county-funded indigent
