Subject: Yes to the the lights!
Los Gatos in Lights - I support it. Because one, the Chamber does not joke around - they have
researched and asked business people what they should do - this is the best ides that has come
out of many months of reasearch.
It is safe - as safe as you can get - outdoors, 6ft physical distancing, masks!
It will provide another experience for people and that is what people are craving. These
spectacular light displays will draw people into town - to shop, dine and play.
Los Gatos ‘ outdoor dining scene was a win for many. What is next?
Vote yes for the lights and let’s lift the spirits of everyone who visits!
I also want to give you a virtual high five. LG leadership handled the c19 situation very well and
acted fast implementing the parklets. Now many other cities are looking at us and trying to
copy what we did. You guys should all be proud of yourself. I actually think this is something
you should promote in a social media campaign. How biz friendly LG is and that we are open for
business. In 6-12 months that will come in handy as I predict many many stores will close and
sit empty and attracting tenants will be critical for our downtown
