<br />We have met with the Southhold Restorations, Bicentennial
<br />Committee, Downtown Council, Chamber of Commerce, River Bend
<br />Plaza Authority, and the Downtown Promotion Steering Committee,
<br />and the recommendation is that the Grand Opening should be
<br />merch nt- retail oriented and to consolidate the activities as
<br />much Es possible, and to have one continuous Festival Week,
<br />from kune 30 through July 6.
<br />Miss ampbell stated it is believed that we would not have
<br />enougl interest for June 21 Grand Opening and the July 4
<br />Festival, and that the Grand Opening would take away from the
<br />Festival. It was also recommended that we have free parking
<br />and busing provided for Sunday, June 30, if that date is
<br />acceptable to the Commission, and the store openings for
<br />Sunda , June 30, and Thursday, July 4, be left up to the
<br />indiv dual management's discretion.
<br />This was also discussed in the previous session at length for
<br />support of the Sunday Grand Opening. Redevelopment Commis-
<br />sioners were all in agreement with the Commissioner Reverend
<br />Williams' request to not have the opening conflict with the
<br />Sundav church services, but to set it for sometime in the
<br />after oon, the announcement of the exact time to be set at
<br />a la r date.
<br />On motion by Mr. Wiggins, seconded by Rev. Williams, the
<br />Grand Opening is set for Sunday, June 30, 1974, with activi-
<br />ties through July 6, 1974, to be referred to as "Festival '74
<br />Week.'
