These activities <br />involve participants from across the United States coming to Hillsborough to be involved in the <br />events occurring on Friday and Saturday. In the attached letter, John "Blackfeather" Jeffries, <br />Chair of the Occaneechi Band of the Saponi Nation, requests "continuous open permission" to <br />allow participants the opportunity to camp on the historical site on Thursday, Friday, and <br />Saturday nights during the Festival and Pow Wow. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no significant financial impact associated with this decision. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board consider adoption of the <br />attached Resolution of Intent noting the County's approval of the request with the <br />understanding that Festival and Pow Wow organizers will work with County staff prior to the <br />events to address issues such as notification to County staff, liability insurance, and other items <br />related to Occaneechi Band's use of the site.
