FOR MEMBER OF THE CITY COUNCIL
Aaron Gomez
Occupation: Small Business Owner
As a San Luis Obispo native and Downtown business owner, I am passionate about protecting
and enhancing the community that I've been so fortunate to call home for 37 years.
I believe as a community we can preserve the unique character of San Luis Obispo while
enhancing quality of life for all residents, create innovative opportunities for small business to
thrive, support sound environmental stewardship practices, find solutions to the jobs/housing
imbalance, and continue making progress toward greater inclusion in civic decisions.
My life experience as a SLO native and business owner, as well as my community involvement
with various action groups, makes me uniquely qualified to be a voice for constituents across all
demographics. I'm currently Vice President of the Downtown Association Board of Directors,
Chair of the Downtown Association Parking & Access Committee, member of the Downtown
Association Issues Evaluation Committee, member of the Downtown Association and SLO
Chamber of Commerce Economic Activities Committees, and member of SLO U40 Steering
Committee. Past experience include the SLO Chamber of Commerce Sustainability and
Resources Committee and Leadership SLO Class 25.
A united community weathers all storms and shares in all prosperities.
