Ensuring that our Housing Element is approved.
Determining what steps can be taken to fix the forecasted 5 year budget deficit.
Streamlining the building permit process for both residential and commercial projects.
Investing more funds to Destination Marketing that will bring people to Town to dine, shop and play.

The Chamber will continue to monitor progress of the downtown parking programs, the homeless situation, economic development projects along the Boulevard, and the planning of some of the favorite special events and traditions that make Los Gatos special.
