Dear Mayor and Council Members,
I am writing to express my support for elements of the Open SLO Long-term Strategies program that promote
community, provide improved access for people walking and on bikes, and support restaurants' use of the public realm
and private parking lots. I believe the following actions offer benefits to the people of SLO, downtown businesses, and
the planet:
Making Parklets Permanent:
OPTION 2: Develop Long -Term Parklet Program
Sidewalk Dining:
OPTION 2: More Sidewalk Dining with Narrower Sidewalk Clearances
Outdoor Dining in Private Parking Lots
OPTION 2: Develop Policies to Allow More Outdoor Dining in Private Parking Lots
Monterey Street Configuration:
OPTION 3: Explore concept of a pedestrianized or "car light" configuration for this block of Monterey Street, limiting
vehicular access to only local delivery, service and emergency vehicles.
Continuation of Quick -Build Projects:
Continue implementation of quick -build active transportation and safety projects through ongoing implementation of
the Active Transportation Plan and Traffic Safety Program.
Thank you for your time and commitment to our fine City.
Sincerely,
Melanie Mills
SLO Resident
