TO: City Council
FROM: Anthony Mejia, City Clerk
VIA: Katie Lichtig, City Manager
SUBJECT: Correction to Ordinance No. 1621 (2015 Series)
On July 17, 2015, Council introduced Ordinance No. 1621 (2015 Series) entitled "An Ordinance of
the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, amending Chapter 9.13 of the San Luis
Obispo Municipal Code regarding unruly gatherings" with amendments. A clerical omission was
discovered on page 2 which omitted the word "welfare" in Section 9.13.020 (Definitions). The
insertion of this word is consistent with Council's direction on July 17, 2015.
