that while the old history was important, it was not everything about the project; he didn’t want

Commissioner Tom Murry added to that by saying that residents had expressed interest to him
about having technology available in the core as well such as free wireless internet access in
some of the shops or restaurants; Morrisville was near the center of technology and should
incorporate that into its services. He added it may also be a way to obtain corporate sponsors for
the project.
Planning Director Ben Hitchings closed the meeting, saying it had been a wonderful start to the
process and this was only the beginning. He invited everyone present to continue considering
opportunities and ideas and present those at the next meeting on February 23, 2006. He thanked
everyone for attending the meeting and participating.
