The Formation Committee that put countless hours into learning about PBIDs, researching, polling, and discussing the issues with concerned property and business owners was made up of volunteers representing a broad cross-section of downtown stakeholders. This included:

• 5 business owners
• 7 owners of both property and businesses
• 1 long-term ground lease holder
• 1 resident-at-large
• 1 City of La Mesa representative (Mayor Madrid)

Their names are a matter of public record. Many of them are involved in this web site and the associated effort to inform property owners, business owners, and fellow City of La Mesa residents about the proposed PBID and its benefits.
