I believe we need steady, tested leadership on the Board of Supervisors that will support law enforcement and address homelessness with compassion and accountability.
“Over the past two terms, I have brought my experience as a small business owner and community leader to the board and worked diligently to solve problems and deliver results for North County families. I am excited to continue that work and preserve North County as the special and unique place we all have the privilege of calling home.”

On the board, Peschong has delivered strong results for North County residents, including increased funding and staffing for the sheriff’s department, years of responsible fiscal management, new job creation, and innovative approaches to dealing with the homelessness crisis.
Outside of elected office, Peschong has a career-long record of serving North County as a small business owner and community leader. Peschong is the founder and a past president of the Central Coast Taxpayers Association, past president and former member of the California Mid-State Fair Board of Directors, and is an active member of the San Luis Obispo County Farm Bureau and Cattlemen’s Association.
