I am writing to voice my opinion about downtown SLO parking which is terrible in several ways. If you wanted a thriving
downtown after the pandemic, massively raising rates is not the way to go. The many retail stores and restaurants are
feeling the burden of people dealing with the increased parking rates- and figuring out those parking meters.
Raising rates to $4/hour is cost-prohibitive to going downtown for so many people.
Changing the end of day time from 6pm to 9pm is ridiculous and makes many people think again about going
dt. Please change it back to 6pm and make downtown less aggravating and more affordable.
I have heard nothing will change because the city council has chosen to have us all pay for the new parking structure on
Nipomo. We don't want to be responsible for paying for this. Please find another way.
Thank you,
Alisa
