Title
Resolution to Amend the Starting Time for the Rock the District Event on Saturday, April 22, 2017
Memorandum
A Resolution approving the closing of Maynard Street between Liberty and William was approved on February 21, 2017 at R-17-042. This event is currently scheduled to take place from Noon to Midnight. The organizers would like to adjust the time to close the street at 10:00 AM due to the scheduled March for Science, which starts at noon that day. The participants in the March will be walking down Liberty Street, so an earlier street closure of Maynard will ensure that set-up can take place without interfering with the other activities.
