Hello,
I am emailing in support of drastic changes to the current SLO Downtown parking program. As a local business operator,
we have made the intentional decision to move corporate events out of SLO downtown due to complaints from our
employees regarding the new cost of parking. Our usual happy hour and dinner locations no longer get our business
because we can not afford to ask every one of our employees to pay $8 to park for a 2hr dinner.
I love our downtown, but can already see the impact of the new high prices. As an individual consumer, my household
now opts to go elsewhere for Friday night dinners because of the parking prices. Additionally, when we do drive into
town, it's challenging to find a spot given the new construction areas that occupy previous parking spaces.
I hope you are able to find a resolution that supports locals who wish to spend their time/money downtown and the
businesses that reside there.
Thanks,
Pat
