The latest plan is very flexible with respect to whether there is a street. <br /> Development of the park could start with or without the street, and with the street going part way or all <br /> the way across the park. As drawn, it shows the half way solution, based on a perception of current <br /> funding prospects. I feel that more discussion at a variety of levels is needed before we can say that we <br /> have settled on a particular plan with respect to the street. - -John <br /> From: JONES Eric R <br /> To: ANDERSEN Chris F <br /> Cc: ETTER John F; MATSUSHITA Carrie S; LYLE Les A <br /> Subject: Babe Ruth field invitations <br /> Date: Friday, January 30, 1998 8:42AM <br /> The invitations to the February 6 announcement /ceremony on the <br /> Babe Ruth project are printed and ready to send. The <br /> invitations are phrased very neutrally and do not make any <br /> specific commitment or commit and specific speakers. <br /> Unless I hear otherwise from you, we plan to mail the invitations today at noon. <br /> The news release can wait until Monday. We also need to firm <br /> up the speaking points and brief the mayor to determine if he <br /> wants to be involved as the master of ceremonies. <br /> EricJ <br /> Page 1 <br />
