Subject:No to SLO parking rate increases

I'd rather see no parking rate increase, no new parking structure and no new theater building than the death of our
vibrant downtown caused by exorbitant parking rates forcing people to shop anywhere else but downtown SLO. Perhaps
Madonna Shopping Center, Marigold Shopping Center and similar areas with free parking on the outskirts of town will
benefit, while the center and core identity of our town suffers.
Dont get me wrong, I love theater, but I'd hate to see existing downtown business improvements miss out on
opportunities to increase their post-pandemic cash flow just when people are starting to get out more.
The San Luis Obispo parking rate increase is a bad idea, bad for business and bad for our community.
