CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2017-10-11 | 9 | ITEM 2-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY ISSUES MEETING MINUTES OF Wednesday, October 11, 2017 6:30 p.m. might not even want to walk that or, even in their wheelchairs, go to that section, because that section was mostly kids and families. And it seemed like we were out of place in that location, that we really should have been more central to the fair. Tony Lewis: Trafficked area, yes. Lisa Hall: We were in the last block. Susan Deutsch: Yes, because a lot of people did not come by at least when I was there. Tony Lewis: It was more of an accident if they did. Susan Deutsch: Yes. Beth Kenny: Yes, I think that we can definitely ask about that. I do want to point out, though, that part of that is our fault because we did not get our application in until very late, and most of the spots had already been assigned at that point. Susan Deutsch: Oh, okay. I thought I heard that. Beth Kenny: I apologize for that. Susan Deutsch: I thought I heard that they were putting all the non-profits in one section. Beth Kenny: They were supposed to at one point, and then that fell apart. Susan Deutsch: Anyway, I think we should think about that for next year. Lisa Hall: Definitely. Susan Deutsch: I think there might have been people that would have stopped to get information, but they were, "I don't need to go to that section because that's where the rides are." Beth Kenny: That's a good point. Thank you. Commissioner Lewis, do you have anything to report? Tony Lewis: I don't. Beth Kenny: And Commissioner Deutsch, did you have anything else you'd like to say? Susan Deutsch: I'm on the Library Liaison, and I got an email just saying that the library is going to be putting out these little libraries all over the park. Right now there are some in Alameda, like in front of people's houses, there's a little booth, there's books. You can take a book, you can put a book in to share. Well a lot of the parks now are going to have that, so that books will be more accessible to people in the community, and there'll be these little booths. Take a book, book share, 12/13/17 Page 9 of 16 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2017-10-11.pdf |
