The first person to take advantage of the court decision that lifts free-speech restrictions on the Main Street Plaza was an interdenominational minister who was so excited that he drove all night — some 600 miles and on one hour of sleep — to exercise the new right.

Evangelist Kurt Van Gorden, who made an overnight 600-mile drive to Utah from California, passes out religious literature Thursday.

“I believe that the Constitution was upheld by the 10th Circuit,” he said.

Later, Salt Lake City officials met in a closed session to examine their options in light of the court ruling on the plaza.
