Historical Commission <br /> Meeting Minutes <br /> May 4, 2016 <br /> Page 3 of 5 <br /> concerned that there could be too much responsibility placed on <br /> volunteers and noted that it takes time and effort to coordinate and <br /> schedule volunteers. <br /> ii. Commission's Acceptance of the Museum Business Plan: <br /> The Commission accepted the Business Plan with the understanding <br /> that its acceptance did not necessarily indicate approval of all of its <br /> recommendations. <br /> iii. Discussion of Business Plan recommendations to suggest for <br /> incorporating into the Museum Interpretive Plan (Revised <br /> Museum Interpretive Plan to be reviewed at the July 6, 2016 <br /> Commission meeting): <br /> The Commission and Foundation did like the ideas of expanding <br /> programming, community outreach and strengthen participation <br /> with downtown Louisville events and festivals. Also, both the <br /> Commission and Foundation were in support of the HPC tax renewal <br /> to include Museum operations funding, preferably by going to <br /> voters in 2018. <br /> B.
