Increase attendance and revenue
a. Major increase in promotion, publicity
Ask for GPR in future; or close sites

Development of site
Cost overruns
Increase in cost-GRR
Attendance not going down like other sites, but below Society's expectation
Proposed museum
Proposed cost overruns
Mistakes in estimate
Consultants' level of sophistication of exhibits
Legislative considerations
Phasing museum
Size
Private funds
Fee at museum

Board selection process
If Society can't follow recommendations other cost cutting measures to keep sites open
Representative Gerlach
$3.9 million in GRR revenue to support its programs
Has that figure increased?
Record normal increases as have other agencies
