Re: Palm Nipomo Parking Structure Study Session
The SLO Downtown Association Parking and Access Committee in December
recommended to the SLO Downtown Association Board of Directors to move forward
with the removal of the two buildings adjacent to the proposed Palm Nipomo Parking
Structure as identified in the Council Agenda Report. The Board upheld this
recommendation in order to (a) proceed with getting the structure built and (b) allow for
the development of Downtown's cultural center as envisioned in the City's Conceptual
Design for Downtown.
While this project has quietly, but surely, moved along over the past few years, it has
gained support and momentum of those who understand the importance of having the
structure --and its adjoining facilities in place when large development projects come
on line in Downtown and the cultural organizations have succeeded in their development
efforts. These are important advances for Downtown and will place us in a position of
behind ahead of the curve in this case.
Your support of the project and moving forward with the recommendations of your staff
and our Board. of Directors are much appreciated.
