We are taxpayers...permanent residents and property owners in San Luis Obispo who have attended your council meetings on this subject, surprised always that some speakers in favor of this proposal often are not residents of San Luis Obispo. ( Is it not proper public meeting protocol that speakers are required to state where they reside?) From our observation, several of you have already made your decision on this issue and no matter what, will not yield. Some of you have told me that you feel you were elected by a majority, and therefore the majority will agree with you on what you do. If so, why not put this on the ballot to see if the voters indeed do agree with spending $3,000,000 of taxpayer money on this ? Again, we LOVE our bicycles and we love riding, but neighborhoods and safety for all comes first. With your supported new mega student housing developments in the Foothill and Palomar neighborhoods with inadequate parking, a traffic nightmare is only a matter of time. Yes, Cal Poly students ride bikes, but they also bring cars which need to be parked and do drive through neighborhoods. (We are proud Cal Poly alumni.) Attached is a list of specific objections. Sincerely, Carol and Rich Guenther 2 3291 Violet St. San Luis Obispo 3 4 Sent from my iPhone 5
