Re: Public
Library Satellite Proposals
Recommendation:
Approve participation in the School Community Center
design phase of the planning process. There is no funding impact at this time.
Future funding impact is designated for operational costs which will be
projected and reviewed in the upcoming 2007 budget cycle.
Background:
Currently, there are two proposals being considered for a
Public Library Satellite location in North Rapid. These locations are being
proposed given the availability of land and the Strategic Plan to reach
nonusers. There is a memo outlining participation in a School
Community Center concept at General Beadle School
and continued discussion of the approved 2012 combined services of Library,
Fire, and Police at Fire Station #7. It is recommended that the board continue
investigating possibilities and as information is provided to make a final
decision based on one location.
