The City is committed to ensuring the safety of our community members and businesses during protests. Another protest is planned for today beginning at 2 pm at City Hall. Business should be prepared for this to become a march through Downtown. As a precaution, the City will be closing Downtown City facilities at 1 pm, but will continue to provide essential services. Resources from other agencies and a full deployment of the City of San Luis Obispo Police Department will be on duty to support peaceful demonstrations and protect individuals and property if necessary. At this time, businesses in the Downtown area are currently recommended to:
- Consider closing proactively or be prepared to close your business if necessary
- Ensure all security cameras are on and alarm systems are activated
- If there is an alarm at your business, call 911 and do not go to your business
- Call 911 if there is an emergency
