After seven months leading the Pleasanton Downtown Association, Zac Grant stepped down last week from his role as executive director to pursue another opportunity, he confirmed to the Weekly on Tuesday.
With businesses reopening more fully in the Tri-Valley, the Pleasanton City Council re-examined an existing policy in the Downtown Specific Plan (DSP) that aims to spark more restaurant or retail activity in the downtown core.
The city agreed to go forward with the decision and it was affirmed by the city council, Pleasanton s deputy city manager Pam Ott said. The intention of the street closures for Weekend on Main is two-fold, she said, to support all downtown businesses by providing additional space in which they can choose to expand as they work to recover from the impacts of COVID restrictions, and to encourage the community to reconnect with downtown while shopping, dining and using the services of the merchants.
PDA Board President Terri Terry said, We are working with all our strength and creativity to bring downtown back as the best place to shop, dine, work, live and play.
