Subject:Please approve SLO REP Theatre project
Dear SLO City Council Members,
I’ll keep this quick – please approve the SLO REP Theatre project on which you are voting November
th
12.
SLO REP has been an integral part of our community for 73 years serving populations of all ages,
cultures, abilities, and genders.
They produce high caliber productions that serve as entertainment as well as steady work for
actors, designers, directors, dance choreographers, fight choreographers, and technical crew
members.
This new facility will allow SLO REP to compete with the business booms that come to Santa
Maria and Solvang through PCPA productions. This will economic stimulus will greatly impact
downtown SLO in terms of parking, food and beverage purchases, and additional shopping.
They’ve passed though all other levels of approval – they just need your vote to steamroll
ahead.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
A SLO REP audience member, two-time choreographer, and proud supporter
