Thank you Dillon – I totally understand. Let’s do this: I should have confirmation of this other meeting tomorrow… depending on
what they say, we will have Whitney’s meeting with Jeff be either 3pm OR 4pm on Monday 1/13. Can you please hold both slots

Hi Meeshee,
Unfortunately Whitney wouldn't be able to meet that Tuesday, 2/14, as it's the day of a Council meeting. If
President Armstrong needs to reschedule, we understand and can accommodate.

Good afternoon Dillon and Teresa,
We have had a critical meeting arise for the university that requires President Armstrong’s attendance at 3:00 pm on 1/13. This
meeting with Whitney is important to him - is it at all possible that she could be available at 4:00 pm on that same day, Monday
1/13? Or perhaps at 10:00 am or 1:00 pm on Tuesday 1/14? Thank you for letting me know at your earliest convenience.

Hi Courtney,
Whitney needs to reschedule the meeting with President Armstrong. Any chance that 3:00 PM on Monday January
13th is still available? Also, you will notice I removed Michelle Karpovich from the cc and added Dillon James. Dillon
is Whitney’s new Executive Assistant. He will be taking over scheduling for Whitney but please still keep me as a cc

1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm

I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

Cal Poly’s Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities acts swiftly on any reports it receives of Cal Poly students whose
behavior violates university policies – including off-campus behavior. Likewise, any reports of criminal activity — by our
own students or by any campus visitor — shared with our Cal Poly Police Department will be fully investigated and
individuals will be held accountable.
Citizens can report any instances they believe to be violating university policies here: OSRR online.
Fraternities and Sororities: Conditional Use Permits and R1/R2 Neighborhoods
Thank you for the meeting last week. Please let me know if we can set up another meeting on this. I think we said January
would be a good goal. We’re committed to working through this issue with you. Here are other action steps I have from
that meeting:
*City of SLO to utilize the IFC process
*Elizabeth: Education process at January (new leadership) IFC leadership meeting. Welcome back to school – “here are
ten things you need to do…”
*Timmi will share a map of R3, R4 to share with all orgs.
*Plans starting for Greek row – more information on this.
Please let me know if I forgot anything. I look forward to the meeting Tuesday morning re: University Square. Thank you.

Unfortunately Whitney wouldn't be able to meet that Tuesday, 2/14, as it's the day of a Council meeting. If

Good afternoon Dillon and Teresa,
We have had a critical meeting arise for the university that requires President Armstrong’s attendance at 3:00 pm on 1/13. This
meeting with Whitney is important to him - is it at all possible that she could be available at 4:00 pm on that same day, Monday
1/13? Or perhaps at 10:00 am or 1:00 pm on Tuesday 1/14? Thank you for letting me know at your earliest convenience.

Hi Whitney,
The President is looking forward to meeting at his office on one of the following dates/times:
1/7/25: 1:30 pm – 2:15 pm
1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm
1/13/25: 3:00 pm – 3:45 pm
If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in
the A-1 lot (next to the admin building) at the time that works best.
I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
683
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.
Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities
The email is OSRR@calpoly.edu
Here’s a link to the Standards for Student Conduct: https://content-calpoly-

Cal Poly’s Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities acts swiftly on any reports it receives of Cal Poly students whose
behavior violates university policies – including off-campus behavior. Likewise, any reports of criminal activity — by our
own students or by any campus visitor — shared with our Cal Poly Police Department will be fully investigated and
individuals will be held accountable.
Citizens can report any instances they believe to be violating university policies here: OSRR online.
Fraternities and Sororities: Conditional Use Permits and R1/R2 Neighborhoods
Thank you for the meeting last week. Please let me know if we can set up another meeting on this. I think we said January
would be a good goal. We’re committed to working through this issue with you. Here are other action steps I have from
that meeting:
*City of SLO to utilize the IFC process
*Elizabeth: Education process at January (new leadership) IFC leadership meeting. Welcome back to school – “here are
ten things you need to do…”
*Timmi will share a map of R3, R4 to share with all orgs.
*Plans starting for Greek row – more information on this.
Please let me know if I forgot anything. I look forward to the meeting Tuesday morning re: University Square. Thank you.

Hi Courtney,
Whitney needs to reschedule the meeting with President Armstrong. Any chance that 3:00 PM on Monday January
13th is still available? Also, you will notice I removed Michelle Karpovich from the cc and added Dillon James. Dillon
is Whitney’s new Executive Assistant. He will be taking over scheduling for Whitney but please still keep me as a cc
as I will be his back up.
Thanks,

Hi Whitney,
The President is looking forward to meeting at his office on one of the following dates/times:
1/7/25: 1:30 pm – 2:15 pm
1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm
1/13/25: 3:00 pm – 3:45 pm
If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in
the A-1 lot (next to the admin building) at the time that works best.
I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.

More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

Good afternoon Dillon and Teresa,
We have had a critical meeting arise for the university that requires President Armstrong’s attendance at 3:00 pm on 1/13. This
meeting with Whitney is important to him - is it at all possible that she could be available at 4:00 pm on that same day, Monday
1/13? Or perhaps at 10:00 am or 1:00 pm on Tuesday 1/14? Thank you for letting me know at your earliest convenience.
Kind regards,
Meeshee Scherrei, MAOL

Hi Courtney,
Whitney needs to reschedule the meeting with President Armstrong. Any chance that 3:00 PM on Monday January
13th is still available? Also, you will notice I removed Michelle Karpovich from the cc and added Dillon James. Dillon
is Whitney’s new Executive Assistant. He will be taking over scheduling for Whitney but please still keep me as a cc
as I will be his back up.
Thanks,

Hi Whitney,
The President is looking forward to meeting at his office on one of the following dates/times:
1/7/25: 1:30 pm – 2:15 pm
1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm
1/13/25: 3:00 pm – 3:45 pm
If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in
the A-1 lot (next to the admin building) at the time that works best.
I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
710
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

Thank you for the meeting last week. Please let me know if we can set up another meeting on this. I think we said January
would be a good goal. We’re committed to working through this issue with you. Here are other action steps I have from
that meeting:
*City of SLO to utilize the IFC process
*Elizabeth: Education process at January (new leadership) IFC leadership meeting. Welcome back to school – “here are
ten things you need to do…”
*Timmi will share a map of R3, R4 to share with all orgs.
*Plans starting for Greek row – more information on this.
Please let me know if I forgot anything. I look forward to the meeting Tuesday morning re: University Square. Thank you.

Coffee and treats will be provided. This is what happens when I schedule meetings in the holiday spirit. 뇤눎눐눑눒눏 If I don’t see

Subject: Partnering PD with FSL Chapters
Hello all,
In our research, we learned that there is a model being used at Oregon State University that partners officers from the
Corvallis Police Department with their fraternity and sorority chapters to build ongoing relationships for sharing
knowledge, mutual understanding, and a more collaborative relationship. Of course these are not “get out of jail free”
cards and favoritism or misperception would be a consideration. But we are interested in starting something similar here
with the fraternities and sororities. It sounds like there is mutual interest to explore this further, and I am hoping we can
find a time to come together in January and brainstorm the possibilities. I know I have not included everyone that should
be in the mix with this idea.
Christine – it sounds like you have some folks that would want to be a part of this.
726
Chief Cox – we would like to have a CPPD representative, yourself and/or someone who you think would be suited. I know
Frank Herrera has been the liaison with student organizations for many years, so that may be of interest.
Elizabeth – with new FSL officers coming on board in January, could we see about including the council presidents?
Student voice will be critical to building something that works.
I loathe a Doodle, but let me throw out some potential windows and see what works.
Tuesday 1/7 – 1-5 pm
Tuesday 1/14 – Before 10 am, after noon
Wednesday 1/15 – 3-5 pm
Tuesday 1/21 before 10 am, after 1 pm
Thursday 1/23 before 11 am
If you would like to be included, can you please share times that work for you and your folks?
Jason Mockford (he, him, his)

Sadie:
As we agreed upon on December 5, 2024, the City will be providing documents responsive to your request on a rolling
basis. The first batch of responsive documents to your request are hereby produced. This production was reviewed
by Eric Wooten, Paralegal, and Markie Kersten, Assistant City Attorney. Personal cell phone numbers were redacted
under Govt Code § 7922.000, as the public interest in nondisclosure clearly outweighs the public interest in disclosure.
Documents may be downloaded here: https://opengov.slocity.org/WebLink/Browse.aspx?id=202877
The search and review of documents responsive to your request is ongoing and I will provide you an estimated
production date of additional documents in the next few days. I am including the City Clerk’s Office on this email, so
they are apprised as to the status of this request.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can be of further assistance.

I wanted to provide you with an update on your California Public Records Act (“CPRA”) request regarding fraternities.
It remains a priority for the City, and small team of people have been working on the request, but it is the largest
CPRA request I have helped process since I started with the City.
Given the number of departments involved, the breadth of the request, the intervening holidays, staff availability, and
the number of potential documents involved, we would like to propose providing records on a rolling production basis.
Our estimated production of the first batch would be December 13, 2024. We would provide additional documents as
they are readied for production.
Please let me know your thoughts.

I am only working on the email search portion. The request for documents will be done by the appropriate

only covers emails. If you want to revise your initial request for documents, please let Christine know and we will

Hi Eric,
Perhaps we could also include "complaint" "noise" or "violation" as search terms alongside frat and satellite
house? Would that help narrow it down? We could also separate this into two requests -- one for emails and
one for documents, if that would help at all? Let me know your thoughts.

the total size jumped from 18 gigabytes to about 34 gigabytes. I am guessing that there are some large files

Subject: RE: Public Records Request
Sadie:
770
Thank you for taking our call this morning. The City Attorney’s direct line is 805-781-7143. She is also cc’d on this
email.
For the initial search, I used the following search string:
Date>2021-12-31 AND (frat* OR satellite hous*)
Purview has given me a revised estimate on potentially responsive emails. It has grown from 80 gigabytes to 170
gigabytes. Purview caps search results to 10,000 emails, and this search is well beyond that, so it’s possible the
results are even larger.
If you decide to go forward with this search, we would need to greatly restrict the date parameter and perform the
searches in batches. Remember that Purview duplicates results based on the number of City email addresses
receiving the message and the number of replies. However, a more focused email search might be to our mutual
benefit, as I expect that we are getting a lot of nonresponsive emails in this first attempt. This is by far the largest
return result I have seen (by a factor of 10 or so) and the first to actually “break” Purview.
For the revised search we discussed on the call, I propose this string:
Date>2023-11-13 AND ((frat* NEAR(4) illegal) OR (frat* NEAR(10) complain*) OR (satellite hous*))
For the initial search return estimate, this routine returns 18 gigabytes. While this return is still very large, I have
done one search of the same size. That search did take several months to review and produce.
If you want to further restrict the emails to those that include Cal Poly email addresses, that would likely greatly
reduce the results. I am also open to other modifications that might reduce the number of returned emails, speed-
up the process, and produce less chaff for you to sort through to get to your wheat.
It is possible that once you have some of the responsive emails from either this proposed search, or an even
more focused version, you will have a better idea of the kinds of emails you are looking for and we can search for
those more specific terms, like individual email addresses, etc.
Until I hear from you, I will not go forward with the initial search but will go ahead with the second search, at least
until Purview can give me a count on the number of emails returned, which I should know in the next few hours.

Thank you for making this a collaborative effort and I look forward to hearing from you.

2025-27 Financial Plan Proposed Goals & Objectives
Planning Commission
Background
On December 11, 2024, the Planning Commission updated goals for City Council consideration for the
2025-27 Financial Plan. The Planning Commission prioritized the following goals based on the evaluation
of the completion status for the 2023-25 Major City Goals; community need, and input received over the
past two years; special and urgent conditions that need to be addressed; and the availability of City
resources to accomplish the identified goals and work programs within the financial plan timeframe.
Goals
1. Housing
Emphasize affordable housing programs, encourage flexible use and non-traditional housing
product types to facilitate development of housing options of all types (deed restricted
affordable housing, multi-family, senior and mixed-use). Continue to work with Cal Poly on
aligning enrollment with additional housing for students and faculty. Prioritize projects that
develop transitional and supportive housing options for unhoused community members.
Continue to partner with the County of San Luis Obispo and local service providers to prevent
and address homelessness.
2. Sustainability & Multi-Modal Circulation
Implement the Climate Action Plan, Multi-Modal objectives identified in the LUCE and the
Downtown Concept Plan by encouraging density and in-fill development that includes and
prioritizes non-automobile alternatives to access commercial, services and recreational
opportunities. Review the Upper Monterey Area Plan, Margarita Area Specific Plan and Mid-
Higuera Enhancement Plan with the intention of providing more housing options of all types and
encourage project designs that promote accessible, convenient, and safe pedestrian, bicycle,
and transit access.
3. Livability and Interagency Collaboration
Continue to collaborate with partner agencies on regional issues to improve the quality of life
for community residents. Address neighborhood issues associated with fraternities and
sororities and encourage Cal Poly to build on-campus fraternity and sorority houses.

Hello all,
In our research, we learned that there is a model being used at Oregon State University that partners oƯicers from the
Corvallis Police Department with their fraternity and sorority chapters to build ongoing relationships for sharing
knowledge, mutual understanding, and a more collaborative relationship. Of course these are not “get out of jail free”
cards and favoritism or misperception would be a consideration. But we are interested in starting something similar here
with the fraternities and sororities. It sounds like there is mutual interest to explore this further, and I am hoping we can
find a time to come together in January and brainstorm the possibilities. I know I have not included everyone that should
be in the mix with this idea.
Christine – it sounds like you have some folks that would want to be a part of this.
Chief Cox – we would like to have a CPPD representative, yourself and/or someone who you think would be suited. I know
Frank Herrera has been the liaison with student organizations for many years, so that may be of interest.
Elizabeth – with new FSL oƯicers coming on board in January, could we see about including the council presidents?
Student voice will be critical to building something that works.
I loathe a Doodle, but let me throw out some potential windows and see what works.
Tuesday 1/7 – 1-5 pm
Tuesday 1/14 – Before 10 am, after noon
Wednesday 1/15 – 3-5 pm
Tuesday 1/21 before 10 am, after 1 pm
Thursday 1/23 before 11 am
If you would like to be included, can you please share times that work for you and your folks?

These locations appear to have been originally identified and submitted as potential satellite locations by
in 2023. There are no additional documents associated with those addresses related to enforcement of
fraternities/sororities. Given the large number of locations, we did not investigate each individual location submitted by
Instead, we approached the issued as a larger concern and administratively compiled the existing data to
determine which locations were in violation. The spreadsheet (attached) was how we kept track of evidence that led to
determinations of whether locations met the definition of a fraternity.
If a location was shown to be a residence in which fraternity members live and meetings or gatherings were held at the
location, then we determined a violation to have occurred. The fact that a party occurred, or a noise violation was
documented at a location was not enough to call it a land use violation; we had to be able to show that members of
the organization lived at the location as well. It was not feasible, with our resources, to perform inspections of each
reported location with the purpose of determining who lived there, so we used the list of satellite houses provided and
maintained by CalPoly (which required 50% of the residents to be organizational members) and the events listed in
the AB 524 report (which were, by definition fraternity sponsored events) to show a violation.
Subsequent complaints for individual locations were logged and investigated on an individual basis. Additionally, more
recent direction from the city attorney’s office is to move forward with a violation if we can verify that an event took
place and that it was sponsored/sanctioned by a fraternity/sorority without confirmation that members live on site (if it
looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it probably is a duck).
Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you John.
My concern is that these have been alleged to be satellite frats in emails from but the EDD records I
have reviewed do not include any complaints, any notes of investigations, or other documents that would indicate that
these addresses were ever on our radar. Do we have any documents that could show that we investigated these
properties and found the allegations to be unsubstantiated?

Hi Eric,
Some of the locations you have listed were alleged to have been “satellite houses” by in 2023, but we did
not find enough evidence to show they met the criteria to be considered a fraternity. In the group of responsive
records I already uploaded I included a report received from back in October of 2023 which alleges
many locations to be in violation. She used police records (calls for service for noise) and the original AB 524 report to
determine these locations so, instead of just taking her word on it, we independently combed through the locations
listed in the AB 524 report and cross referenced those with residences recognized by CalPoly to be “satellite
houses”. I also included a spreadsheet that we used to organize the data and track follow up enforcement. Not all
reported locations met the criteria to be considered a violation. If an event was reported to have occurred per the AB
524 report but there was no evidence to show that fraternity members lived at the location, an advisory notice was
sent to the property owner. This is documented in the spreadsheet. There were seven of these advisory notice that my
staff did not save a copy of though.
Other than the report from there were no other complaints or cases regarding these addresses related to
fraternities or sororities. There may have been complaints or cases for other violations. Do you want the records for
ALL enforcement actions at these locations?

Hi Eric,
The first set of records was specific to enforcement records related to “fraternities, fraternity houses, fraternity parties,
satellite houses, or illegal fraternities”. Do you know if the same information is being requested for these addresses or
are we expanding the search criteria looking at all types of enforcement for these specific addresses? If they are
looking for the same information as previous, then the lack of records from the first round indicates no related records.
Let me know.

Good morning!
We discussed this PRR at our staff meeting today and I just wanted to follow-up on the status of the code enforcement
portion.
Christine would like to use this PRR as an opportunity to gather information on the issue of fraternities and satellite
houses, and therefore asks that the request be interpreted as broadly as possible. Therefore, we would like all
documents, citations, and complaints for anything fraternity-related from January 2022 onward.
Please provide an estimated completion date by the end of the day Friday, even if it is just your best guess.
And, as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your assistance!

Hi Sadie,
Timmi asked me to respond to you directly about your questions regarding the code enforcement process. In
general, when code enforcement receives a request for investigation, we determine any potential violation(s)
regarding the information provided and perform an investigation to determine if a violation occurred. If there is
evidence that a violation has occurred, a Notice of Violation is sent to the property owner advising of the identified
violation(s) and describing how to come into compliance within the expected timeline in which compliance should
be achieved. Barring any agreed upon alternate timeline, if, after the compliance deadline, the violation(s) still exist,
or we can show that a repeat violation has occurred within 12 months, enforcement will escalate to the issuance of
administrative citations. Technically, fines can be assessed for each violation, each day that the noted violation(s)
796
occur. Each successive fine will increase until topping out at the third escalation of citation issued. The fine
amounts vary depending on the violation, but in general they are $100 for the first, $500 for the second and $1,000
for the third and beyond. In reality, individual cases receive consideration for their unique circumstances and the
decision to move forward with additional fines is made on a case by case basis.
Regarding enforcement of fraternities and sororities, we typically get two types of reported issues. Either there is a
claim that an event has occurred at a specific location and the residence in question is acting as a fraternity/sorority
without the appropriate land use approvals, or an existing, approved, fraternity/sorority has violated the terms of
their use permit. For those without permits, we will cite for a land use violation when we can prove that an event
occurred that was associated with a fraternity/sorority and request compliance immediately. Any repeated violations
result in fines. For those with permits, any violation of the conditions within their use permit can result in fines
and/or recommendation for use permit review by the planning commission which may result in modification or
revocation of the use permit.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Timmi,
Thanks again for meeting with me last week. I was wondering if you had a chance to talk to John Mezzapesa
about the information he might be able to offer me on the code enforcement side of things? If he can send that
over to me early next week after the holiday, I would greatly appreciate it! I hope you enjoy a happy holiday!
Best,
Sadie

Let me know if that works!

Hi Jason,
Here is an interactive parcel viewer where members of the public can find the zoning for a particular parcel of land:
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/a51155e46d504bfab3b7a107c3eb6643/page/Planning/ and here is a
printable PDF zoning map: https://www.slocity.org/home/showpublisheddocument/32299/637897915888970000
While not the most beautiful webpage, here is an easy link you can send out that has links to both of those resources
as well as the zoning code: https://www.slocity.org/living/maps/zoning-map
I am glad to hear you have engaged the National headquarters.
I will work with the team to get something on our calendars for January.
806
Thank you and have a nice weekend!

Thank you Timmi! I had a lovely Thanksgiving, and hope you did as well.
I appreciate the reconnect on this.
Additionally, we have further engaged the National headquarters of each fraternity and sorority for assistance in
reinforcing the code with their chapters and helping their students and/or housing boards navigate. Some were aware
from the notices that went out, and some were not. Elizabeth is at a conference in Indiana with many of them this week
and fielding questions as she is able to meet with them.
One question that has come up is whether the zoning map is accessible online somewhere? Others had asked about the
permitting process, and specifically about special event permit applications. We were able to find those links from your
website. If there is a map we can send them, that would be helpful.
Shall we also look at times to reconnect in January before our calendars are too full?
Thanks so much Timmi and John!

Hi Jason,
I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
I wanted to connect you, John and I in an email in response to the meeting that we had with Whitney a
few weeks ago. One of the results of that meeting is that I said we would send over all of the CUPs for
Frats/Sororities that we have so that CP has them, and so that you could identify if there are locations
that are no longer active.
John, can you please work with Jason to find the best way to get Cal Poly digital copies of the CUPs for
Greek houses that we have?

Hi Jason,
Here is an interactive parcel viewer where members of the public can find the zoning for a particular parcel of land:
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/a51155e46d504bfab3b7a107c3eb6643/page/Planning/ and here is a
printable PDF zoning map: https://www.slocity.org/home/showpublisheddocument/32299/637897915888970000
While not the most beautiful webpage, here is an easy link you can send out that has links to both of those resources
as well as the zoning code: https://www.slocity.org/living/maps/zoning-map
I am glad to hear you have engaged the National headquarters.
I will work with the team to get something on our calendars for January.
Thank you and have a nice weekend!

Thank you Timmi! I had a lovely Thanksgiving, and hope you did as well.
I appreciate the reconnect on this.
833
Additionally, we have further engaged the National headquarters of each fraternity and sorority for assistance in
reinforcing the code with their chapters and helping their students and/or housing boards navigate. Some were aware
from the notices that went out, and some were not. Elizabeth is at a conference in Indiana with many of them this week
and fielding questions as she is able to meet with them.
One question that has come up is whether the zoning map is accessible online somewhere? Others had asked about the
permitting process, and specifically about special event permit applications. We were able to find those links from your
website. If there is a map we can send them, that would be helpful.
Shall we also look at times to reconnect in January before our calendars are too full?
Thanks so much Timmi and John!

Hi Jason,
I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
I wanted to connect you, John and I in an email in response to the meeting that we had with Whitney a
few weeks ago. One of the results of that meeting is that I said we would send over all of the CUPs for
Frats/Sororities that we have so that CP has them, and so that you could identify if there are locations
that are no longer active.
John, can you please work with Jason to find the best way to get Cal Poly digital copies of the CUPs for
Greek houses that we have?

Hi Sadie,
Timmi asked me to respond to you directly about your questions regarding the code enforcement process. In
general, when code enforcement receives a request for investigation, we determine any potential violation(s)
regarding the information provided and perform an investigation to determine if a violation occurred. If there is
evidence that a violation has occurred, a Notice of Violation is sent to the property owner advising of the identified
violation(s) and describing how to come into compliance within the expected timeline in which compliance should be
achieved. Barring any agreed upon alternate timeline, if, after the compliance deadline, the violation(s) still exist, or
we can show that a repeat violation has occurred within 12 months, enforcement will escalate to the issuance of
administrative citations. Technically, fines can be assessed for each violation, each day that the noted violation(s)
occur. Each successive fine will increase until topping out at the third escalation of citation issued. The fine amounts
vary depending on the violation, but in general they are $100 for the first, $500 for the second and $1,000 for the
third and beyond. In reality, individual cases receive consideration for their unique circumstances and the decision to
move forward with additional fines is made on a case by case basis.
Regarding enforcement of fraternities and sororities, we typically get two types of reported issues. Either there is a
claim that an event has occurred at a specific location and the residence in question is acting as a fraternity/sorority
without the appropriate land use approvals, or an existing, approved, fraternity/sorority has violated the terms of their
use permit. For those without permits, we will cite for a land use violation when we can prove that an event occurred
that was associated with a fraternity/sorority and request compliance immediately. Any repeated violations result in
fines. For those with permits, any violation of the conditions within their use permit can result in fines and/or
recommendation for use permit review by the planning commission which may result in modification or revocation of
the use permit.

I spoke with the Tribune last week about code enforcement and Fraternities. I did not know the enforcement
structure off the top of my head, so I told the reporter I would circle back with you, can you send her a brief
description of our code enforcement structure (such as, how much fines are, when we fine people, how they
escalate, etc.).

Dear Planning Commissioners,
I thought I could be at tonight's meeting to provide public comment so didn't email you beforehand, but
unfortunately was not able to make it. However, I watched the meeting online. Thank you so much for
addressing the neighborhood issues, especially related to Cal Poly and illegal fraternities for the major city
goals. I am hopeful that we may be able to turn the tide and start to make progress!
Commissioner Houghton again brought up the idea of the summit to get different groups together to discuss
and solve this issue. I love the idea and hope that it is possible. I have been attending the Student Community
Liason Committee (SCLC) for over a year and unfortunately, Cal Poly has not been willing to address the issue,
so that does not seem to be the best forum. The City (code enforcement) continues to say they don't have
adequate staff. And the City Council says it's "working with Cal Poly" and wishes it would take more
responsibility for its fraternities. So the problem is not getting solved.
843
A reporter for the Tribune has been investigating the situation in depth and hopefully, the story will be published
in the next month or so. She has had difficulty getting information from Cal Poly because it claims that
fraternities are independent of the university. Perhaps the publicity, and your encouragement for the city to
encourage Cal Poly to help solve this problem, will finally cause some movement toward a solution.
I just wanted to express my sincere appreciation to each of you.
With Gratitude,

Hi Jason,
Here is an interactive parcel viewer where members of the public can find the zoning for a particular parcel of land:
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/a51155e46d504bfab3b7a107c3eb6643/page/Planning/ and here is a
printable PDF zoning map: https://www.slocity.org/home/showpublisheddocument/32299/637897915888970000
While not the most beautiful webpage, here is an easy link you can send out that has links to both of those resources
as well as the zoning code: https://www.slocity.org/living/maps/zoning-map
I am glad to hear you have engaged the National headquarters.
I will work with the team to get something on our calendars for January.
Thank you and have a nice weekend!
Timmi

Thank you Timmi! I had a lovely Thanksgiving, and hope you did as well.
I appreciate the reconnect on this.
Additionally, we have further engaged the National headquarters of each fraternity and sorority for assistance in
reinforcing the code with their chapters and helping their students and/or housing boards navigate. Some were aware
from the notices that went out, and some were not. Elizabeth is at a conference in Indiana with many of them this week
and fielding questions as she is able to meet with them.
One question that has come up is whether the zoning map is accessible online somewhere? Others had asked about the
permitting process, and specifically about special event permit applications. We were able to find those links from your
website. If there is a map we can send them, that would be helpful.
Shall we also look at times to reconnect in January before our calendars are too full?
Thanks so much Timmi and John!

Hi Jason,
I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
I wanted to connect you, John and I in an email in response to the meeting that we had with Whitney a
few weeks ago. One of the results of that meeting is that I said we would send over all of the CUPs for
Frats/Sororities that we have so that CP has them, and so that you could identify if there are locations
that are no longer active.
John, can you please work with Jason to find the best way to get Cal Poly digital copies of the CUPs for
Greek houses that we have?
Thank you,

Request # 9704 from the Government Outreach System has been assigned to you.
Request type: Problem
Request area: General Question
Citizen name:
Description: I'm not sure where to address this query, but the property at 313/315 Patricia (the lot
has been split, so I'm not sure which address is for what) is undergoing significant
expansion, which I presume is permitted. It's long been a student rental, but that's fine
as there have been no issues around that. What's new is that in the last several weeks a
very large Greek sorority or fraternity sign has been placed on the garage, sometimes
raised up sometimes not (see photo). That makes me concerned that a fraternity or
sorority, perhaps informal, is being located there. That seems way out of scale for this
neighborhood. And it seems unlikely we are zoned for that anyhow; the public records
show it as a single-family home, even though the expanded site is looking more like a
small apartment building these days than the manageable student rental of it past.
Anyhow, something seems off in what is going on at that property in t erms of intended
or actual usage.
Location: 313 Patricia Drive

Not online but I can give you the info.
NV- negative violation, means not a violation at the time the officer arrived
CIT – citation
CAN – call canceled, usually the reporting person calls back and says the noise is done or gone
DAC – disturbance advisement card, formal warning
NSPY – noise party, code used to classify a noise complaint call
NSOT – noise other, code used to classify a noise complaint call that isn’t related to voices/music/party noise
There are some offense codes on these reports that are related to non-noise party related calls for service with
corresponding clearance codes specific to the offense code.

Hi Christine,
Thanks so much for providing me with this information. I've got a couple follow up questions.
First, would it be possible to be provided a list of the noise complaints/DACs/citations/unruly gathering
reports for certain addresses over the last year? If that's too much to retrieve quickly, we can do since
August. I am looking at about 9 addresses in total: 1229 Fredericks, 1276 Bond, 1256 Bond, 1218 Bond, 348
Hathway, 281 Hathway, 322 Hathway, 1220 Fredericks and 1270 Fredericks.
Additionally, I was curious if the department has documentation of the Walkers saying they wanted the
investigation discontinued? They have denied that claim.
Best,
Sadie

Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me,
but tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls
are investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since
August? How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and
where. In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by
852
neighborhood, but the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and
about half came from the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3.
Compared to past years, it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the
past couple of years, it’s coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two
citations since August 1st, one on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related
to zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we
simply provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up
with the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is
strong and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative
enforcement authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like
noise and open container).
6. Can you confirm that Kathie Walker or Steve Walker filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking?
Can you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of the Walker’s, they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and
I'd be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a
year-to-year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into
complaints and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc.
Thank you!

I am a reporter with the SLO Tribune, and I'm working on a story about fraternities (specifically fraternities

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and
I'd be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a
year-to-year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into
complaints and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc.
Thank you!

Hi Christine,
I am a reporter with the SLO Tribune, and I'm working on a story about fraternities (specifically fraternities
located in R1 and R2 zones) and their relationship with neighbors. I was wondering if you or someone from
SLOPD would be willing to speak with me about this topic? I'd like to have a conversation before
Wednesday afternoon, if possible.
I hope you're having a great Monday!
Best,

These locations appear to have been originally identified and submitted as potential satellite locations by
in 2023. There are no additional documents associated with those addresses related to enforcement of
fraternities/sororities. Given the large number of locations, we did not investigate each individual location submitted by
Instead, we approached the issued as a larger concern and administratively compiled the existing data to
determine which locations were in violation. The spreadsheet (attached) was how we kept track of evidence that led to
determinations of whether locations met the definition of a fraternity.
If a location was shown to be a residence in which fraternity members live and meetings or gatherings were held at the
location, then we determined a violation to have occurred. The fact that a party occurred, or a noise violation was
documented at a location was not enough to call it a land use violation; we had to be able to show that members of
the organization lived at the location as well. It was not feasible, with our resources, to perform inspections of each
reported location with the purpose of determining who lived there, so we used the list of satellite houses provided and
maintained by CalPoly (which required 50% of the residents to be organizational members) and the events listed in
the AB 524 report (which were, by definition fraternity sponsored events) to show a violation.
Subsequent complaints for individual locations were logged and investigated on an individual basis. Additionally, more
recent direction from the city attorney’s office is to move forward with a violation if we can verify that an event took
place and that it was sponsored/sanctioned by a fraternity/sorority without confirmation that members live on site (if it
looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it probably is a duck).
Let me know if you have any additional questions.

My concern is that these have been alleged to be satellite frats in emails from but the EDD records I
have reviewed do not include any complaints, any notes of investigations, or other documents that would indicate that
these addresses were ever on our radar. Do we have any documents that could show that we investigated these
properties and found the allegations to be unsubstantiated?

Hi Eric,
Some of the locations you have listed were alleged to have been “satellite houses” by but we did
not find enough evidence to show they met the criteria to be considered a fraternity. In the group of responsive
records I already uploaded I included a report received from back in October of 2023 which alleges
many locations to be in violation. She used police records (calls for service for noise) and the original AB 524 report to
determine these locations so, instead of just taking her word on it, we independently combed through the locations
listed in the AB 524 report and cross referenced those with residences recognized by CalPoly to be “satellite
houses”. I also included a spreadsheet that we used to organize the data and track follow up enforcement. Not all
reported locations met the criteria to be considered a violation. If an event was reported to have occurred per the AB
524 report but there was no evidence to show that fraternity members lived at the location, an advisory notice was
sent to the property owner. This is documented in the spreadsheet. There were seven of these advisory notice that my
staff did not save a copy of though.
Other than the report from there were no other complaints or cases regarding these addresses related to
fraternities or sororities. There may have been complaints or cases for other violations. Do you want the records for
ALL enforcement actions at these locations?

Hi Eric,
The first set of records was specific to enforcement records related to “fraternities, fraternity houses, fraternity parties,
satellite houses, or illegal fraternities”. Do you know if the same information is being requested for these addresses or
are we expanding the search criteria looking at all types of enforcement for these specific addresses? If they are
looking for the same information as previous, then the lack of records from the first round indicates no related records.
Let me know.

Thank you for pulling all of these records together!
Can you pull code enforcement records, including any complaints that were not deemed valid, for the addresses listed
below for the period of January 2022 to present day? I know it will probably take some time, so give me your best
estimate of a completion date when you can. Please put responsive documents in this folder:

I’m working on this, and have some files pulled compiled from previous somewhat related PRRs, but would realistically
need until EOD Tuesday to get it all together.

Good morning!
We discussed this PRR at our staff meeting today and I just wanted to follow-up on the status of the code enforcement
portion.
Christine would like to use this PRR as an opportunity to gather information on the issue of fraternities and satellite
houses, and therefore asks that the request be interpreted as broadly as possible. Therefore, we would like all
documents, citations, and complaints for anything fraternity-related from January 2022 onward.
872
Please provide an estimated completion date by the end of the day Friday, even if it is just your best guess.
And, as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your assistance!

Hi Christine,
Thanks so much for providing me with this information. I've got a couple follow up questions.
First, would it be possible to be provided a list of the noise complaints/DACs/citations/unruly gathering
reports for certain addresses over the last year? If that's too much to retrieve quickly, we can do since August.
I am looking at about 9 addresses in total: 1229 Fredericks, 1276 Bond, 1256 Bond, 1218 Bond, 348 Hathway,
281 Hathway, 322 Hathway, 1220 Fredericks and 1270 Fredericks.
876
Additionally, I was curious if the department has documentation of wanted the
investigation discontinued? They have denied that claim.
Best,
Sadie

Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me,
but tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls
are investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since
August? How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and
where. In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by
neighborhood, but the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and
about half came from the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3.
Compared to past years, it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the
past couple of years, it’s coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two
citations since August 1st, one on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related to
zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we
simply provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up
with the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is
strong and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative
877
enforcement authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like
noise and open container).
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking?
Can you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and
I'd be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a
year-to-year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into
complaints and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc.
Thank you!

Hi Christine,
I am a reporter with the SLO Tribune, and I'm working on a story about fraternities (specifically fraternities
located in R1 and R2 zones) and their relationship with neighbors. I was wondering if you or someone from
SLOPD would be willing to speak with me about this topic? I'd like to have a conversation before
Wednesday afternoon, if possible.
I hope you're having a great Monday!

Hi Sadie,
I can provide you with those reports for each address. The time frame doesn’t impact the ease of retrieval so if you
could give me exact dates, that’s helpful.
The documentation related to cyber incident is not releasable to you. To receive a copy of the report, it
would have to come from them.

Hi Christine,
Thanks so much for providing me with this information. I've got a couple follow up questions.
First, would it be possible to be provided a list of the noise complaints/DACs/citations/unruly gathering
reports for certain addresses over the last year? If that's too much to retrieve quickly, we can do since August.
I am looking at about 9 addresses in total: 1229 Fredericks, 1276 Bond, 1256 Bond, 1218 Bond, 348 Hathway,
281 Hathway, 322 Hathway, 1220 Fredericks and 1270 Fredericks.
Additionally, I was curious if the department has documentation of saying they wanted the
investigation discontinued? They have denied that claim.
Best,
885

Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me,
but tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls
are investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since
August? How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and
where. In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by
neighborhood, but the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and
about half came from the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3.
Compared to past years, it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the
past couple of years, it’s coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two
citations since August 1st, one on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related to
zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we
simply provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up
with the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is
strong and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative
enforcement authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like
noise and open container).
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking?
Can you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
889
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and
I'd be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a
year-to-year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into
complaints and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc.
Thank you!

Hi Christine,
I am a reporter with the SLO Tribune, and I'm working on a story about fraternities (specifically fraternities
located in R1 and R2 zones) and their relationship with neighbors. I was wondering if you or someone from
SLOPD would be willing to speak with me about this topic? I'd like to have a conversation before
Wednesday afternoon, if possible.
I hope you're having a great Monday!

Hi Christine,
Thanks so much for providing me with this information. I've got a couple follow up questions.
First, would it be possible to be provided a list of the noise complaints/DACs/citations/unruly gathering reports
for certain addresses over the last year? If that's too much to retrieve quickly, we can do since August. I am
looking at about 9 addresses in total: 1229 Fredericks, 1276 Bond, 1256 Bond, 1218 Bond, 348 Hathway, 281
Hathway, 322 Hathway, 1220 Fredericks and 1270 Fredericks.
Additionally, I was curious if the department has documentation of saying they wanted the
investigation discontinued? They have denied that claim.
Best,
Sadie

Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me, but
tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls are
investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since
August? How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and
where. In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by
neighborhood, but the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and
about half came from the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3.
Compared to past years, it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the
past couple of years, it’s coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two
citations since August 1st, one on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
894
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related to
zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we simply
provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up
with the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is
strong and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative
enforcement authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like
noise and open container).
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking? Can
you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and I'd
be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a year-

Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into
complaints and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering

Thank you!

Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me, but
tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls are
investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since
August? How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and
where. In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by
910
neighborhood, but the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and
about half came from the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3.
Compared to past years, it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the
past couple of years, it’s coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two
citations since August 1st, one on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related to
zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we simply
provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up
with the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is
strong and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative
enforcement authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like
noise and open container).
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking? Can
you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email
didn't make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and I'd
be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a year-

Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into

Hi Christine,
I am a reporter with the SLO Tribune, and I'm working on a story about fraternities (specifically fraternities
located in R1 and R2 zones) and their relationship with neighbors. I was wondering if you or someone from
SLOPD would be willing to speak with me about this topic? I'd like to have a conversation before Wednesday

The documentation related to cyber incident is not releasable to you. To receive a copy of the report, it

My concern is that these have been alleged to be satellite frats in emails from but the EDD records I

Hi Eric,
Some of the locations you have listed were alleged to have been “satellite houses” by in 2023, but we did
not find enough evidence to show they met the criteria to be considered a fraternity. In the group of responsive
records I already uploaded I included a report received from back in October of 2023 which alleges
many locations to be in violation. She used police records (calls for service for noise) and the original AB 524 report to
determine these locations so, instead of just taking her word on it, we independently combed through the locations
listed in the AB 524 report and cross referenced those with residences recognized by CalPoly to be “satellite
houses”. I also included a spreadsheet that we used to organize the data and track follow up enforcement. Not all
reported locations met the criteria to be considered a violation. If an event was reported to have occurred per the AB
524 report but there was no evidence to show that fraternity members lived at the location, an advisory notice was
sent to the property owner. This is documented in the spreadsheet. There were seven of these advisory notice that my
staff did not save a copy of though.
Other than the report from there were no other complaints or cases regarding these addresses related to
fraternities or sororities. There may have been complaints or cases for other violations. Do you want the records for
ALL enforcement actions at these locations?

Hi Eric,
The first set of records was specific to enforcement records related to “fraternities, fraternity houses, fraternity parties,
satellite houses, or illegal fraternities”. Do you know if the same information is being requested for these addresses or
are we expanding the search criteria looking at all types of enforcement for these specific addresses? If they are
looking for the same information as previous, then the lack of records from the first round indicates no related records.
Let me know.

need until EOD Tuesday to get it all together.

Good morning!
We discussed this PRR at our staff meeting today and I just wanted to follow-up on the status of the code enforcement
portion.
Christine would like to use this PRR as an opportunity to gather information on the issue of fraternities and satellite
houses, and therefore asks that the request be interpreted as broadly as possible. Therefore, we would like all
documents, citations, and complaints for anything fraternity-related from January 2022 onward.
Please provide an estimated completion date by the end of the day Friday, even if it is just your best guess.
And, as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your assistance!

Hi Eric,
Some of the locations you have listed were alleged to have been “satellite houses” by in 2023, but we did
not find enough evidence to show they met the criteria to be considered a fraternity. In the group of responsive
records I already uploaded I included a report received from back in October of 2023 which alleges
many locations to be in violation. She used police records (calls for service for noise) and the original AB 524 report to
determine these locations so, instead of just taking her word on it, we independently combed through the locations
listed in the AB 524 report and cross referenced those with residences recognized by CalPoly to be “satellite
houses”. I also included a spreadsheet that we used to organize the data and track follow up enforcement. Not all
reported locations met the criteria to be considered a violation. If an event was reported to have occurred per the AB
524 report but there was no evidence to show that fraternity members lived at the location, an advisory notice was
sent to the property owner. This is documented in the spreadsheet. There were seven of these advisory notice that my
staff did not save a copy of though.
Other than the report from there were no other complaints or cases regarding these addresses related to
fraternities or sororities. There may have been complaints or cases for other violations. Do you want the records for
ALL enforcement actions at these locations?

Hi Eric,
The first set of records was specific to enforcement records related to “fraternities, fraternity houses, fraternity parties,
satellite houses, or illegal fraternities”. Do you know if the same information is being requested for these addresses or
are we expanding the search criteria looking at all types of enforcement for these specific addresses? If they are
looking for the same information as previous, then the lack of records from the first round indicates no related records.
Let me know.

Subject:RE: Fraternities and neighborhoods - The Tribune
Hi Sadie,
There are a couple links in this response, if they don’t work, please let me know. They look like they work to me, but
tech has failed me before.
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What are the
fines/consequences?
Noise calls go through our dispatch center. This document provides a comprehensive explanation of how noise calls are
investigated and the fines associated with a violation.
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly since August?
How does the data compare to previous years?
Our Community Crime Map has a great interactive mapping tool that allows users to see what’s been reported and where.
In that timeframe, we received around 568 complaints city-wide. Our system doesn’t let me search by neighborhood, but
the mapping tool gives a good visual. Annually, we are around 1400 to 1500 noise complaints and about half came from
the neighborhoods adjacent to campus. On the map, it would include neighborhood 1, 2, and 3. Compared to past years,
it’s about the same. After the pandemic, we saw a small increase in complaints but over the past couple of years, it’s
coming back down. Unruly gatherings aren’t logged on the crime map; we have issued two citations since August 1 st, one
on Loomis and one on Stenner Street.
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are related to
zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
PD provides reports and data to CDD when requested. PD doesn’t typically know what’s zoning related or not, we simply
provide information that’s requested.
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
When issuing a citation or a DAC, the officers will ask the recipient if they are a student of Cuesta or Cal Poly and the
person will answer, or they won’t. That information isn’t compelled to be provided.
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports or data
shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and Cal Poly?
Cal Poly Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities receives two weekly reports: a noise violation report of who got
DACs and citations, and an arrest record for the previous 7 days. Our understanding is that OSRR conducts follow-up with
the folks on those reports they can confirm are their students. The relationship between the two departments is strong
and we work closely with CPPD. We support each other in mutual aid requests and CPPD has administrative enforcement
authority up to 1 mile off campus meaning they can write citations for City of SLO municipal codes (like noise and open
container).
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding cyberstalking? Can
you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent investigation?
I can confirm an incident was reported. The investigation was discontinued at the request of they only
wanted their experience documented.

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email didn't
make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and I'd
be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a year-
to-year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into complaints
and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering complaints, etc.

Hello,
My name is Vincent Matesso one of the current tenants living at 1541 Slack Street in San Luis Obispo. On
12/5/24 my house was targeted by the San Luis Obispo police and given an unreasonable ticket for the event
taking place. That being said, we would like to appeal this ticket for various reasons.
Reasoning:
-Music inside and at a reasonable level.
-It was a small gathering of close friends NOT a large fraternity or sorority party. (Which there were definitely a
number going on at the time)
-Doors remained closed unless guests were let in
-Lastly and again, the music was not audible from the street or regulated distance for a ticket to be given.
953
Overall, this was a small gathering of close friends with minimal, low, and non-obnoxious music being played.
The front door and all doors remained closed until one of our guests had left the front door open while grabbing
something before, they left (hardly 5 minutes) That is when the officer decided to walk up the ramp and ticket us
for noise.
Please let me know what I need to do to dispute this ticket, I will be sure to get you any information or complete
anything to do so.
Thank you, best regards.

My name is Vincent Matesso one of the current tenants living at 1541 Slack Street in San Luis Obispo. On
12/5/24 my house was targeted by the San Luis Obispo police and given an unreasonable ticket for the event
taking place. That being said, we would like to appeal this ticket for various reasons.
Reasoning:
-Music inside and at a reasonable level.
-It was a small gathering of close friends NOT a large fraternity or sorority party. (Which there were definitely a
number going on at the time)
-Doors remained closed unless guests were let in
-Lastly and again, the music was not audible from the street or regulated distance for a ticket to be given.
Overall, this was a small gathering of close friends with minimal, low, and non-obnoxious music being played.
The front door and all doors remained closed until one of our guests had left the front door open while grabbing
955
something before, they left (hardly 5 minutes) That is when the officer decided to walk up the ramp and ticket us
for noise.
Please let me know what I need to do to dispute this ticket, I will be sure to get you any information or complete
anything to do so.
Thank you, best regards.

It has been alleged that these are illegal satellite houses and I would like to see if there are any complaints, notices or

Hi Eric,
The first set of records was specific to enforcement records related to “fraternities, fraternity houses, fraternity parties,
satellite houses, or illegal fraternities”. Do you know if the same information is being requested for these addresses or
are we expanding the search criteria looking at all types of enforcement for these specific addresses? If they are
looking for the same information as previous, then the lack of records from the first round indicates no related records.
Let me know.

Can you pull code enforcement records, including any complaints that were not deemed valid, for the addresses listed
below for the period of January 2022 to present day? I know it will probably take some time, so give me your best
estimate of a completion date when you can. Please put responsive documents in this folder:

Good morning!
We discussed this PRR at our staff meeting today and I just wanted to follow-up on the status of the code enforcement
portion.
Christine would like to use this PRR as an opportunity to gather information on the issue of fraternities and satellite
houses, and therefore asks that the request be interpreted as broadly as possible. Therefore, we would like all
documents, citations, and complaints for anything fraternity-related from January 2022 onward.
Please provide an estimated completion date by the end of the day Friday, even if it is just your best guess.
And, as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your assistance!

Awesome, thanks so much! Here are a few questions:
1. What is the process for law enforcement to look into a noise complaint or unruly gathering complaint? What
are the fines/consequences?
2. How many reports of parties/unruly gatherings have been reported in neighborhoods adjacent to Cal Poly
since August? How does the data compare to previous years?
3. How does the police department work with community development when it comes to complaints that are
related to zoning issues? Are reports or data shared between agencies?
963
4. How do officers determine whether or not a party is affiliated with Cal Poly/Cal Poly students?
5. How does the police department collaborate with Cal Poly when it comes to these reports? Are the reports
or data shared with the university? More broadly, what is the relationship between the police department and
Cal Poly?
6. Can you confirm that filed a police report in 2023 or 2024 regarding
cyberstalking? Can you share any information about the results of that report and the subsequent
investigation?
I believe these are all my questions for now. Feel free to reach out with any questions at 208-249-4941.
Thanks!

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email didn't
make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and I'd
be interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a year-

Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into complaints

Hi John,
Thanks so much for providing this information. Would you be able to provide me with a number of how many
fraternities, if any, have been officially identified as operating outside of the proper zoning areas? Additionally,
would you be able to tell me how many investigations into this specific issue are underway?
Best,

Hi Sadie,
Timmi asked me to respond to you directly about your questions regarding the code enforcement process. In general,
when code enforcement receives a request for investigation, we determine any potential violation(s) regarding the
information provided and perform an investigation to determine if a violation occurred. If there is evidence that a
violation has occurred, a Notice of Violation is sent to the property owner advising of the identified violation(s) and
describing how to come into compliance within the expected timeline in which compliance should be achieved.
Barring any agreed upon alternate timeline, if, after the compliance deadline, the violation(s) still exist, or we can
show that a repeat violation has occurred within 12 months, enforcement will escalate to the issuance of
administrative citations. Technically, fines can be assessed for each violation, each day that the noted violation(s)
occur. Each successive fine will increase until topping out at the third escalation of citation issued. The fine amounts
vary depending on the violation, but in general they are $100 for the first, $500 for the second and $1,000 for the third
and beyond. In reality, individual cases receive consideration for their unique circumstances and the decision to move
forward with additional fines is made on a case by case basis.
Regarding enforcement of fraternities and sororities, we typically get two types of reported issues. Either there is a
claim that an event has occurred at a specific location and the residence in question is acting as a fraternity/sorority
without the appropriate land use approvals, or an existing, approved, fraternity/sorority has violated the terms of their
use permit. For those without permits, we will cite for a land use violation when we can prove that an event occurred
that was associated with a fraternity/sorority and request compliance immediately. Any repeated violations result in
fines. For those with permits, any violation of the conditions within their use permit can result in fines and/or
recommendation for use permit review by the planning commission which may result in modification or revocation of
the use permit.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi John,
Happy Monday!
I spoke with the Tribune last week about code enforcement and Fraternities. I did not know the enforcement
structure off the top of my head, so I told the reporter I would circle back with you, can you send her a brief
description of our code enforcement structure (such as, how much fines are, when we fine people, how they escalate,
etc.).
Thank you,

Hi Christine! I have spoken with Timmi from development, so no worries there! I apologize, my last email didn't
make that clear.
To clarify, I am interested in speaking with the police department about noise complaints, unruly gathering
complaints, etc. from within the neighborhoods near Cal Poly. I also attended the last SCLC meeting, and I'd be
interested in learning more about what the data presented that night by the police department (re: a year-to-
year decrease in noise complaints) means for neighbors.
Let me know if that makes more sense! I believe this conversation would give me more insight into complaints
and how the police department typically handles noise complaints, unruly gathering complaints, etc.
Thank you!

Good morning!
We discussed this PRR at our staff meeting today and I just wanted to follow-up on the status of the code enforcement
portion.
Christine would like to use this PRR as an opportunity to gather information on the issue of fraternities and satellite
houses, and therefore asks that the request be interpreted as broadly as possible. Therefore, we would like all
documents, citations, and complaints for anything fraternity-related from January 2022 onward.
Please provide an estimated completion date by the end of the day Friday, even if it is just your best guess.
And, as always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your assistance!

Hi Jason,
Here is an interactive parcel viewer where members of the public can find the zoning for a particular parcel of land:
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/a51155e46d504bfab3b7a107c3eb6643/page/Planning/ and here is a
printable PDF zoning map: https://www.slocity.org/home/showpublisheddocument/32299/637897915888970000
While not the most beautiful webpage, here is an easy link you can send out that has links to both of those resources
as well as the zoning code: https://www.slocity.org/living/maps/zoning-map
I am glad to hear you have engaged the National headquarters.
I will work with the team to get something on our calendars for January.
Thank you and have a nice weekend!

Thank you Timmi! I had a lovely Thanksgiving, and hope you did as well.
I appreciate the reconnect on this.
Additionally, we have further engaged the National headquarters of each fraternity and sorority for assistance in
reinforcing the code with their chapters and helping their students and/or housing boards navigate. Some were aware
from the notices that went out, and some were not. Elizabeth is at a conference in Indiana with many of them this week
and fielding questions as she is able to meet with them.
One question that has come up is whether the zoning map is accessible online somewhere? Others had asked about the
permitting process, and specifically about special event permit applications. We were able to find those links from your
website. If there is a map we can send them, that would be helpful.
Shall we also look at times to reconnect in January before our calendars are too full?
Thanks so much Timmi and John!

I am only working on the email search portion. The request for documents will be done by the appropriate
departments according to their own processes, so we are considering it (internally) as two requests. My portion
only covers emails. If you want to revise your initial request for documents, please let Christine know and we will
adjust accordingly.

Hi Eric,
Perhaps we could also include "complaint" "noise" or "violation" as search terms alongside frat and satellite
house? Would that help narrow it down? We could also separate this into two requests -- one for emails and
one for documents, if that would help at all? Let me know your thoughts.

the total size jumped from 18 gigabytes to about 34 gigabytes. I am guessing that there are some large files

Sadie:
Thank you for taking our call this morning. The City Attorney’s direct line is 805-781-7143. She is also cc’d on this
email.
For the initial search, I used the following search string:
Date>2021-12-31 AND (frat* OR satellite hous*)
Purview has given me a revised estimate on potentially responsive emails. It has grown from 80 gigabytes to 170
gigabytes. Purview caps search results to 10,000 emails, and this search is well beyond that, so it’s possible the
results are even larger.
If you decide to go forward with this search, we would need to greatly restrict the date parameter and perform the
searches in batches. Remember that Purview duplicates results based on the number of City email addresses
receiving the message and the number of replies. However, a more focused email search might be to our mutual
benefit, as I expect that we are getting a lot of nonresponsive emails in this first attempt. This is by far the largest
return result I have seen (by a factor of 10 or so) and the first to actually “break” Purview.
For the revised search we discussed on the call, I propose this string:
Date>2023-11-13 AND ((frat* NEAR(4) illegal) OR (frat* NEAR(10) complain*) OR (satellite hous*))
For the initial search return estimate, this routine returns 18 gigabytes. While this return is still very large, I have
done one search of the same size. That search did take several months to review and produce.
If you want to further restrict the emails to those that include Cal Poly email addresses, that would likely greatly
reduce the results. I am also open to other modifications that might reduce the number of returned emails, speed-
up the process, and produce less chaff for you to sort through to get to your wheat.
It is possible that once you have some of the responsive emails from either this proposed search, or an even
more focused version, you will have a better idea of the kinds of emails you are looking for and we can search for
those more specific terms, like individual email addresses, etc.
1012
Until I hear from you, I will not go forward with the initial search but will go ahead with the second search, at least
until Purview can give me a count on the number of emails returned, which I should know in the next few hours.
Thank you for making this a collaborative effort and I look forward to hearing from you.

I performed a revised search before going to lunch so it could be working while I was out. Here are the parameters:

This only resulted in about 6 gigabytes of results and I expect the total number of emails to be manageable, but I’m
waiting for a final count.
If this sounds good to you, we can work on providing you responsive communications from this search. Just let us

I am only working on the email search portion. The request for documents will be done by the appropriate

Hi Eric,
Perhaps we could also include "complaint" "noise" or "violation" as search terms alongside frat and satellite
house? Would that help narrow it down? We could also separate this into two requests -- one for emails and
one for documents, if that would help at all? Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,

Purview came back with potentially responsive emails. There are 2,841 emails for the second search. However,
the total size jumped from 18 gigabytes to about 34 gigabytes. I am guessing that there are some large files
associated with this revised search and that is what is driving the size of the results.
Let me know if you would like to proceed with the second search, or if you would rather me further modify the

Sadie:
Thank you for taking our call this morning. The City Attorney’s direct line is 805-781-7143. She is also cc’d on this
email.
For the initial search, I used the following search string:
Date>2021-12-31 AND (frat* OR satellite hous*)
Purview has given me a revised estimate on potentially responsive emails. It has grown from 80 gigabytes to 170
gigabytes. Purview caps search results to 10,000 emails, and this search is well beyond that, so it’s possible the
results are even larger.
1018
If you decide to go forward with this search, we would need to greatly restrict the date parameter and perform the
searches in batches. Remember that Purview duplicates results based on the number of City email addresses
receiving the message and the number of replies. However, a more focused email search might be to our mutual
benefit, as I expect that we are getting a lot of nonresponsive emails in this first attempt. This is by far the largest
return result I have seen (by a factor of 10 or so) and the first to actually “break” Purview.
For the revised search we discussed on the call, I propose this string:
Date>2023-11-13 AND ((frat* NEAR(4) illegal) OR (frat* NEAR(10) complain*) OR (satellite hous*))
For the initial search return estimate, this routine returns 18 gigabytes. While this return is still very large, I have
done one search of the same size. That search did take several months to review and produce.
If you want to further restrict the emails to those that include Cal Poly email addresses, that would likely greatly
reduce the results. I am also open to other modifications that might reduce the number of returned emails, speed-
up the process, and produce less chaff for you to sort through to get to your wheat.
It is possible that once you have some of the responsive emails from either this proposed search, or an even more
focused version, you will have a better idea of the kinds of emails you are looking for and we can search for those
more specific terms, like individual email addresses, etc.
Until I hear from you, I will not go forward with the initial search but will go ahead with the second search, at least
until Purview can give me a count on the number of emails returned, which I should know in the next few hours.
Thank you for making this a collaborative effort and I look forward to hearing from you.

Subject:NOVs for Fraternities/Sororities - notify CP
Hi team,
A result of a meeting that Whitney and I had with Cal Poly last month, is that we said we would be sending any
Notices that went to suspected satellite houses or actual Frat/Sorority houses to Cal Poly in order to encourage them
to both understand the issue at hand and potentially have these violations work through one of their judicial systems.
Can you please set up a process by which NOVs are emailed to Elizabeth Aiello-Coppola and Jason Mockford once
they are issued? We should also create a tracking document with the known addresses, when violations were
sent/issued, etc. to understand properties with repeat issues.
You know I love a good meeting, so I will probably set something up soon for the three of us to talk, since we had a
productive meeting with PD about information sharing.

If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in

Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
1041
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

Hi Whitney,
The President is looking forward to meeting at his office on one of the following dates/times:
1/7/25: 1:30 pm – 2:15 pm
1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm
1/13/25: 3:00 pm – 3:45 pm
If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in
the A-1 lot (next to the admin building) at the time that works best.
I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
1049
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

would be a good goal. We’re committed to working through this issue with you. Here are other action steps I have from
that meeting:
*City of SLO to utilize the IFC process

is Whitney’s new Executive Assistant. He will be taking over scheduling for Whitney but please still keep me as a cc
as I will be his back up.
Thanks,
Teresa

Hi Whitney,
The President is looking forward to meeting at his office on one of the following dates/times:
1/7/25: 1:30 pm – 2:15 pm
1064
1/9/25: 1:00 pm – 1:45 pm or 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm
1/13/25: 3:00 pm – 3:45 pm
If those don’t work for you, please let me know and we’ll propose other options. We will reserve a parking space for you in
the A-1 lot (next to the admin building) at the time that works best.
I also wanted to follow up with you on the items I promised from our recent lunch with Jen and Allison Baird-James as well
as other follow up items. Apologies for the delay.
Saint Patrick’s Day Planning
We’re really glad that Chief Scott is now on the task force. We’ll meet again before the end of the year.
I attached more information on all the planning around this. I will share some of the plans with my neighbor contact list as
well. That was a great suggestion.
Because we talked through it specifically, I wanted to highlight the communication plans we’re evaluating that could
include:
Media outreach and story/interview pitching with police chiefs and others
Opinion piece placements in local and out-of-area media (particularly student media at key universities in
California) to spread the word that the party is canceled in SLO, etc.
Social media outreach out of area to discourage visitors and spread the party is canceled message
Working with sister CSU and UC campuses’ communications departments and student government to help
spread the word
Robust on-campus and local social media messaging centered around celebrating responsibly and calling
attention to alternative events and to enforcement measures that will be in place.
More on this in the months to come.
Halloween: messaging and campus impacts
I know I shared the pre-Halloween communication that we sent to students with you on Oct. 24th. Here is a summary of
impacts from our High-Risk Events Task Force:
ASI - Late night Halloween event at the Rec center the Saturday before Halloween - 1200 students showed up, almost
double the attendance of the year before.
The event ended at 1AM, and many students were still in attendance all the way to the end.
UH - UH had staff and CPPD, CSO, and CSL (other roles providing eyes and ears) completing walks and providing a
presence both weekends. This seemed to be helpful. Lots of awareness around no overnight guests- seem to have less
people around the communities. We had some damage but nothing "out of the normal.”
OSRR - Pre Halloween weekend had 22 cases with 74 students, overall, 37 reports with 91 students. 3 transports over
both weekends. Working on a year over year Halloween report.
FSL - All hydration boxes were utilized with no leftovers and have not heard any negative response from OSRR or the
students.
L&S - City has decided not to partner with Cal Poly in the future. Community clean up event with 40 student volunteers.
DOS - There were instances of vandalism on campus on Halloween night, and facilities worked quickly to get it cleaned up
and President Armstrong met with the impacted student communities.
1065
City of SLO - City/community had brought up a question on why Cal Poly did not have an event on Halloween itself
- mainly due to the time frame of Halloween falling on a weekday. Next year, Halloween falls on a Friday.

Information about Cal Poly’s conduct process can be found here: https://osrr.calpoly.edu/home
Cal Poly’s Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities acts swiftly on any reports it receives of Cal Poly students whose
behavior violates university policies – including off-campus behavior. Likewise, any reports of criminal activity — by our
own students or by any campus visitor — shared with our Cal Poly Police Department will be fully investigated and
individuals will be held accountable.
Citizens can report any instances they believe to be violating university policies here: OSRR online.
Fraternities and Sororities: Conditional Use Permits and R1/R2 Neighborhoods
Thank you for the meeting last week. Please let me know if we can set up another meeting on this. I think we said January
would be a good goal. We’re committed to working through this issue with you. Here are other action steps I have from
that meeting:
*City of SLO to utilize the IFC process
*Elizabeth: Education process at January (new leadership) IFC leadership meeting. Welcome back to school – “here are
ten things you need to do…”
*Timmi will share a map of R3, R4 to share with all orgs.
*Plans starting for Greek row – more information on this.
Please let me know if I forgot anything. I look forward to the meeting Tuesday morning re: University Square. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Courtney

Subject: Scheduling Meeting re Fraternities
Hi everyone,
Our office would like to set up a meeting regarding fraternity/sorority neighborhood nuisance enforcement. This
meeting would discuss a specific PRA request but would also include a broader discussion on enforcement. I briefly
looked at everyone’s schedules, and it looks like December 2nd from 2-3 would work for most schedules. If this works,
1078
please let me know and I can set up the invite. If there are other days or times that would work better, please let me
know as well.
@Wallace, Christine- Please let me know if there is someone else from PD that should be invited.
Thank you,

Hi Mayor Stewart,
I am a reporter with The Tribune and I am covering the issue of illegal
fraternities/satellite houses in low-density neighborhoods in SLO. I wondered if you
would be willing to speak with me on this topic, specifically in regard to the
relationship between the city and Cal Poly when it comes to solving this problem. I
spoke with Timmi Tway in Planning and she was a great help, but I wanted to reach
out to you as well to get your perspective. If you're willing, please let me know! I will
be out of the office this Thursday-Sunday, but will return next week. I hope you have
a great start to the holiday season!
Best,
