88¸ Resolution re: Authori~zing the City Manager to an agreement w~Alb'. Cry., and Chamber of Commerce to establish the..Thomas Jefferson Visitors Bureau The City Manager presented and explained an agreement among the ~CitY'of CharlottesVi%le, County of Albemarle and the Charlottesville- Albemarle Chamber of Commerce for the purpose of operating the Thomas Jefferson Visitors Bureau. He stated the agreement calls for the establishment of a managing committee composed of the County Executive, City.Manager and the Executive ~ine~President of the .Chamber, who would direct the day to day operations of the bureau. There would also be a policy commission established by the City, County and Chamber who would set policy and report back periodically to the governing bodies on the operations of the bureau. He stated it is the feeling at this time that the bureau could be located at the Bicentennial Center since it should be located at some place all could agree upon so that a suitable sign program could be established. Mrs. 0'Brien suggested that number two be changed to read, "a. establish policy; b. develop a budget; c. develop the program; and d. advise the management committee"and also a sentence to read, "the commission shall meet nine times a year." She also suggested that number six be changed to reflect that the committees first choice for the location was at the Bicentennial Center.
