Dear Honorable Mayor and City Council:
I am a citizen who benefits from having access to a location that offers products that help manage my depression and anxiety. While I can understand the concerns you all may have on
the impact of your city, this business will help generate revenue for City of SLO. This business takes security and safety of its customers greatly. I have attended the Grover Beach
location since they first opened and I have not once seen a lax in security measures and they are thorough for checking that all customers are of age and products are handled appropriately
to avoid tampering or r cause for concern. This business would be a boon to the local economy. I implore you to listen to what they have to say as well as the long standing customers
who do see a benefit in the products offered. As a county resident, I do support this business and I hope you all have a change of heart in allowing them to open their San Luis Obispo
location as originally intended for October 22nd.
Kind Regards,
Jenny Williamson

We are writing you today to urge you to please listen to us, NHC employees, who are also residents of SLO County, including the City of SLO.
With hundreds of jobs and an equal number of families that depend on NHC obtaining its permit in SLO, we implore you to reconsider the brash decision by your staff to revoke, not only
NHCs opportunities but the opportunities for all of us that work for this great company. Many of us have worked for years gaining our experience, our knowledge, and our connections
to the patients and customers we serve in SLO County. Many of us have worked for years to obtain leadership roles at NHC.
Together we comprise a young, dynamic group of hardworking, taxpaying citizens who would not have had these kinds of opportunities were it not for this business. Many of us have struggled
our entire lives seeking economic stability in one of the most expensive places to live in California.
The employment opportunities that are available on the Central Coast do not provide most families a chance to become self-reliant or enjoy financial stability for themselves and their
families on a wage that can be described as livable.
We have worked tirelessly educating ourselves, dedicating our time to become leaders in this new and emerging industry. How we have learned to interact and connect with our customers
and patients by
recommending the most appropriate products has made us not only trusted but trendsetters in our industry.
For the city to turn back the clock and effectively put many of us at square one, looking for new jobs, with a new company, will not only be detrimental to ourselves, but it will be
a detriment to the community. NHCs business model is second to none. We’ve earned the opportunity to continue pushing forward and delivering everything we have promised to this City
and to the community. We look forward to speaking to you face-to-face and bringing our collective perspectives, and those of our families, and our customers, by explaining how this
decision will negatively affect us all.
It is our sincere hope that as wise, progressive, and compassionate leaders of this City you will make the right decision for this community. We believe that decision is to allow NHC
to begin its operations as the company has spent years planning for while making tremendous sacrifices to bring this business to fruition.
Sincerely,
