While considering the likelihood of a Qaeda attack minimal, officials say they are concerned that one of the small anarchist groups in Greece will set off a bomb.
Since the price tag will be minimal, officials say that some development will be allowed -- a hotel, a conference center, a restaurant and souvenir shops, for example -- but that large-scale commercial development will be barred.
"It would appear that the criminal activity, if any, was minimal," the official said.
His staff, however, was minimal: his official attendants (apparitores), including lictors, heralds, messengers, scribes, and bodyguards; legates, both civil and military, usually of equestrian rank; and friends, ranging in age and experience, who accompanied him unofficially.
But there has been minimal progress, officials said.
The cost of that maintenance would be minimal, town officials said.
But the bombs did minimal damage, officials said, and the death toll from the attacks was low.
The fallout from this unprecedented, systematic search: One arrest for possession of illegal fireworks, zero legal challenges and, according to the police and transit officials, minimal resistance.
Subway, bus and commuter train service had returned to normal; airports operated with minimal delays; and officials said every street had been plowed at least once.
