General Government: Regulatory Issues, 1983-1992

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents note

The General Government: Regulatory Issues subseries contains materials on a variety of issues. Several files detail the struggle for a compromise between the City Council and the King County Council on regulating taxis. Documents relating to the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday include both an official report by a state commission recommending how the holiday should be observed in the future and the text of a speech given by Rice to commemorate King. The controversy over renaming Empire Way in honor of King is also represented. Of particular interest may be a file containing requirements and cost figures for a bid to host the 1992 Super Bowl.
