A downtown group of restaurants is lobbying the city to close a downtown street to cars along one city block in order to provide outdoor dining for its patrons. They present a business plan to the city council showing increased revenues for participating restaurants, increased parking revenues for the city along side streets, and an overall economic benefit for all of downtown. The source for the information on the business plan is a study done by an independent research group that did a study of 50 major cities that concluded that outdoor dining draws a significantly larger population to downtown areas and helps revitalize struggling downtown businesses. However, a residential neighborhood group is opposed to the idea because they believe it will create more noise and encourage drinking in their neighborhood. At the same city council meeting, the neighborhood group presented a petition signed by 1500 people living in the area who oppose the business plan presented by the restaurants, and who claim that people who dine outdoors tend to drink more and speak more loudly than when they dine indoors.Both groups are then interviewed by the local television station. The restaurant group claims that the neighborhood group is racist because one of the restaurants serves ethnic food. The neighborhood group claims that they were in the neighborhood prior to the restaurants getting there.Which of the following statements are true? Choose two answers. correct answers a) The neighborhood group's presentation contains probable accuracy.
