Nipomo Street to hold a sidewalk sale on Saturday, June 5, 1976, was approved
on motion of Councilman Petterson, seconded by Councilman Norris.
2. The Promotional Coordinating Committee discussed with the City Council,
the long -range plan proposed for the committee with the two main community
development goals as outlined in the general plan:
1) To maintain San Luis Obispo as the trading center for-the County
and to provide increased shopping and employment for the citizens
of the community in the retailing sector; and
2) To encourage the growth of tourism in San Luis Obispo for the
purpose of providing economic diversity.
The long -range plan of the Promotional Coordinating Committee was designed
primarily to aid these community development goals. However, the committee has
also been charged with improving the quality of life for the citizens of San
Luis Obispo and that charge was also incorporated into the development plan.
The committee then reviewed for the City Council, their direct media advertising
plan, their facilities proposal, their activity grants, publications, promotion
and funds for research.
The City Council discussed with the Promotional Coordinating Committee members
present, some of the proposals submitted in their long -range plan. The City
Council thanked the Promotional Coordinating Committee for their presentation and
stated they were looking forward to the receipt of their budget in line with
their long -range plan.
