36525 of the California Streets and Highways Code, after approval of the annual report
the City Council shall follow the hearing process. At the public hearing, the City Council

DISCUSSION
Background
On October 17, 2023, Council reviewed and approved the San Luis Obispo Tourism
Business Improvement District (TBID) Board’s annual report pursuant to Municipal Code
Section 12.42.060 (Attachment A).
The City’s Municipal Code further requires that, after the approval of the annual report,
Council may adopt a resolution of intention to levy an annual assessment for that fiscal
year and schedule a public hearing to receive any written or oral protests against the
district. Resolution No. 11455 (2023 Series), setting such a hearing, was adopted on
October 17, 2023 (Attachment B).
Page 267 of 281
Item 8a
Following the Council action on October 17, 2023, all lodging businesses within the district
including hotels, motels, bed and breakfast properties and the City permitted homestays,
were noticed for the public hearing scheduled for November 7, 2023. Those notices were
sent on October 26, 2023 to all assessed properties.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
As set forth in Sections 36524 and 36525 of the California Streets and Highways Code
and San Luis Obispo Municipal Code Section 12.42.060, the Council has the ability to
continue the San Luis Obispo TBID at the public hearing, unless oral or written protests
are received from City hoteliers that will pay 50% or more of the proposed assessments.
Under Municipal Code Section 12.42.060, protests are weighted based upon the annual
assessment for the prior year by each hotel.
Staff will have assessment information available at the meeting, but for confidentiality
reasons, this information is not made public before or at the meeting. If a sufficient
negative protest occurs, no further proceedings to continue the levy of assessments for
that fiscal year shall take place.
At the conclusion of the public hearing, if insufficient protest is received, Council may then
adopt a resolution affirming the continuation of the San Luis Obispo TBID, setting forth
the basis for the assessment, and levying the assessment upon hotels in the district for
fiscal year 2023-24 (Attachment C).
Public Engagement
This item is on the agenda for the November 7, 2023, Council meeting and will follow all
required postings and notifications. Legal notices regarding the Council’s review and
consideration of the TBID Annual Public Hearing were published in the New Times and
mailed to TBID properties on October 26, 2023. The public may have an opportunity to
comment on this item at or before the meeting.
All Advisory Body meetings for the TBID were noticed in accordance with Brown Act
standards.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to the recommended
action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “project” under CEQA
Guidelines sec. 15378.

*For 2023-24, the TBID projected revenue is $2,140,800 and is budgeted for program
costs including staffing, which is intended to be used for tourism marketing and promotion.
All costs associated with TBID program expenditures are paid with TB ID revenues. The
City retains 2% of TBID revenues to offset administrative overhead in the General Fund
which amounts to $42,816 in FY 2023-24 based on current revenue assumptions.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Delay the public hearing. Staff does not recommend this alternative because all
legally required noticing has been completed. In addition to the legal noticing, staff
provided additional constituent outreach. In the event that the City receives close to
50% protest, the Council could delay the public hearing in order verify protest
submissions.
2. Deny the resolution. Staff does not recommend this alternative if the requirements
to deny the resolution under the legal protest specifications were not met.
