LibraryBoard/2008-11-12.pdf,2 | LibraryBoard | 2008-11-12 | 2 | Page 2 of 4 Minutes of the Alameda Free Library Board Meeting November 12, 2008 President Belikove had read in the Director's letter about the new book drop awning and shelf that will be installed, and asked if there was a possibility of putting an additional book drop in the back of the building. Chisaki explained this had been investigated previously, but it was found that there was no way to accommodate a book drop at the rear of the building. President Belikove asked for a motion to accept the Consent Calendar as presented. Member Mitchell so moved; Member Wetzork seconded the motion which carried by a 5-0 vote. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS, NON-AGENDA (Public Comment) Audience member Li Volin spoke up about the recent fund-raising program the Library Foundation had hosted with food author Michael Pollan. Ms. Volin thought the event had been absolutely fabulous, and others in attendance at the meeting echoed her sentiments. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Neighborhood Library Improvement Projects (J. Chisaki) 23 architectural firms showed up for the mandatory branch walk-through. They asked a lot of good questions; their proposals are due on November 24. Laurie Kozisek, project manager for Public Works, had located floor plans for WEB and aerial photos of both branches that Director Chisaki will put up on the webpage. The first meeting between Library, Public Works, Friends and Foundation representatives will be on Wednesday, November 19; 5-10 meetings will be held throughout the design phase of the project. Chisaki queried the Board on whether they would like to see West End and Bay Farm residents on the committee so there could be community input. Member Wetzork listed both positives and negatives for consideration; Member Butter was very much in favor of resident participation, as was Vice President Hartigan. Chisaki said a PowerPoint presentation could be put on the website for the community to view and submit comments that way. Butter said that is a good idea, but believes it is key to have community members on the commit… | LibraryBoard/2008-11-12.pdf |

Bicycle Plan Update Group There was no report. c. Alameda Point Advisory Task Force There was no report. 5. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS - NON-AGENDIZED ITEMS There were none. 6. OLD BUSINESS a. Monitoring of Oak Street and Central Avenue Intersection Staff Khan summarized the extensive staff report and detailed the background and scope of this item. He described the monitoring plan, and added that Public Works and Alameda Police Department (APD) coordinated the work with the community groups, addressing their concerns. In response to a request by APD, City Council approved the change to the Municipal Code on June 17, 2008 regarding the use of the garage by skaters and skateboarders. In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Moehring about additional bike racks in the area, Staff Bergman replied that there was not a current proposal for anything on the north side of Central near the theater. Staff Khan added that staff would continue to examine that issue, and that racks would be installed in Lot C. Commissioner Krueger noted that page 4 stated that there was a pedestrian crossing time of 4 to 7 seconds, and inquired why there was a maximum walk time. As a pedestrian, he expected that the flashing hand time should be equal to the crossing distance divided by the average walking speed, and that the green signal should last through the crossing time. He would like to see the crossing time maximized. Staff Khan replied that based upon the studies, 7 seconds at a signalized intersection was the maximum to coordinate with the cycle. Commissioner Krueger inquired whether it would be possible to have a white hand and countdown that changed to an orange flashing countdown as the crossing time ran out. Staff Khan stated that a $50 parking permit was being considered for Monday through Friday parking. Staff would consider the PSBA request to increase the parking time from four to eight hours. In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Krueger whether … | TransportationCommission/2008-11-12.pdf |
