Subject:10/7/2025 Agenda - Items 6.c & 7.a
Dear Mayor Stewart and Council Members,
Welcome to the first meeƟng of October.
I am wriƟng to encourage to conƟnue your support of both the Economic Development Plan and the TBID.
Item 6.c - This was a very detailed plan when presented to you, and aŌer reading through the report, they have made
major progress on all of the goals. I feel this program is working for the benefit of the City.
Item 7.a - $11.417M is really all you need to say. The TBID and all of the partners have once again exceed the previous
year. Their efforts have paid off, they are improving the tourist experience, as well as supporƟng the ciƟzens of SLO.
WriƟng as a ciƟzen of SLO, both the EDP and the TBID have improved my quality of life.
WriƟng as the current Chair of the PCC, both the EDP and the TBID have both been instrumental in allowing us to
implement the programs you have tasked the PCC with.
The PCC thrives as an Advisory Board because of both the EDP and the TBD. It is a pleasure to work in partnership with
the EDP goals and the TBID programs.
Thank you for all you do.
Thank you for your service.
John
