SUBJECT: REMOVAL OF MEMBER OF TOURISM BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT
DISTRICT (TBID) BOARD
RECOMMENDATION
Remove Dave Brown from the TBID Board and direct the City Clerk to initiate the process to fill
the vacancy.
DISCUSSION
The City Council's regulations governing advisory body attendance require that members who
fail to attend three consecutive regular meetings or a total of six regular meetings within a
twelve-month period shall automatically be considered for replacement. Mr. Dave Brown, who
was appointed to the TBID Board in 2009 and to the TBID Events Task Force, has not attended a
regular TBID or Events Task Force meeting since October 2010. Staff has attempted to contact
Mr. Brown unsuccessfully. Mr. Brown has not given the TBID Board or staff an explanation of
any extenuating circumstances resulting in the absences.
In addition, pursuant to San Luis Obispo Municipal Code section 12.42.100, TBID members
must be operators of hotels within the district, or employed by the operator of such a hotel. Staff
has since confirmed that Mr. Brown is no longer employed by Travelodge San Luis Obispo.
