Dear Mayor & City Council,
This is a legal business and should be allowed to open as planned. Don’t react out of fear. There is no place for censorship of a legal operation in an open market. Sometimes our personal
opinions are not aligned with what is fair, however we must uphold the principals that our society has agreed upon.
You need to do the right thing. Our Democracy demands it.
I am a resident of San Luis Obispo County. I am also a voter and a taxpayer. I am VERY opposed to the City of SLO shutting down NHC’s dispensary before they even have the chance to open.
The City’s decision to shut them down is going to hurt not just the city, but also the residents of the city. Your staff’s decision will hurt a lot of innocent hardworking people who
work for this great company. That is just WRONG! Please do not let that happen.
The decision to shut down NHC’s operation is unfair and extreme. I urge you to overturn this decision at your next city council meeting on October 19th.
Allowing NHC to open its new store, the city will receive substantial tax dollars, local organizations and charities will receive substantial donations, NHC employees will give back
to the community through hours of volunteer time. In other words, everyone wins if NHC opens its store. If you decide not to reverse your staff’s decision, and NHC is forced to shut
down, everyone loses. The city loses tax dollars, the company loses its entire investment, the community loses what it stood to gain from a successful business opening, but maybe more
important than all of that, local families lose by losing the jobs they depend on. Please do not allow that to happen.
I urge you to do the right thing on October 19th by voting to reverse the decision made by the city.
Please vote to allow NHC to open its new store.
Sincerely,
Sheree Brekke
