Downtown SLO Committees

Be a part of the conversation, have your voice heard. Downtown SLO hosts a number of committees to ensure members are in the loop on important updates and able to advocate for initiatives and changes that will improve the downtown experience. Committees are open for our members to join!

Join a Committee


Active Committees

Events Committee

The Events Committee supports Downtown SLO by guiding the development and execution of events that drive economic vitality, increase foot traffic, and create meaningful experiences in the downtown district. The committee provides strategic input, community perspective, and collaboration to ensure events align with Downtown SLO’s mission, reflect the needs of businesses and stakeholders, and enhance downtown as a vibrant gathering place for all.

Parking & Access

The Parking & Access Committee brings together downtown business members and public officials to review and address issues like parking (garages, meters, rates, signage), access, mobility, and transportation. Engage in discussion, vote on improvements, and elevate recommendations to the City of SLO when necessary.

Downtown Impact

The Downtown Environment Committee is getting a name refresh! Now titled the Downtown Impact Committee, these meetings will be the place for business owners to learn about everything impacting the downtown experience each quarter. Topics will include information on upcoming construction projects, homelessness response, trend reporting from SLO PD, management plans for high-impact weekends like St. Patrick's Day and Cal Poly Commencement, and more.

Property Owner

The Property Owner Committee serves as an advisory group to the CEO of Downtown SLO, providing a dedicated forum for property owners within the district to share feedback, express concerns, and engage directly with the organization.
