Hi, Council!
My name is Kylie Clark and I am a resident of San Luis Obispo as well as a student at
Cal Poly. First of all, I want to thank each of you for your hard work and leadership during this
unprecedented time. We are so lucky to have you as leaders of our wonderful city and your
dedication and effort does not go unnoticed.
I want to speak to you today about the proposed resolution to adopt a Safety
Enhancement Zone. I understand that many of those who have been breaking the shelter in place
regulations are younger-aged adults, some of whom are likely students. As a student, I want to
reinforce how important it is that these rules are being followed for the safety of all community
members. I would also like to thank you for finding ways to ensure that everyone is respecting
these rules and I hope that this Safety Enhancement Zone helps to make this happen.
Additionally, please remember that many students are not returning to San Luis Obispo in
order to protect the community and many are also unable to go home because it is not safe or
possible for them, but are following the shelter in place order. Student Government is working to
encourage our peers to accept their social responsibility, stay inside, and be a part of the solution
rather than the problem, and I am glad y’all are working to ensure this is the case throughout the
entire city.
Last, I wanted to let you know that I will still be virtually attending all meetings and that
you can reach out if you ever need help connecting with students or generating ideas. Thank you
for all you do and stay safe and healthy.
All the best,
Kylie
