> Kyle,
> I served on the planning commission for 8 years from 1992-2000 and have been in commercial real estate in SLO for 32
years.
>
> It was recently brought to my attention that the new regulations may be changing parking requirements for retail
spaces from 1/300 sf to 1/250sf.
>
> In all my years in SLO the best thing the City of SLO can do is not create new problems and remain consistent in
treating existing buildings with the same requirements as when they were constructed. Consistency is mandatory for
commercial property owners to plan for the future as well as meeting current requirements.
>
> This makes no sense for existing buildings to be required to meet a standard that was not considered when they were
constructed.
>
> I would be at the meeting but am in Canada on vacation.
>
> Thanks for your consideration.
