LibraryBoard/2011-12-14.pdf,2 | LibraryBoard | 2011-12-14 | 2 | Page 2 of 7 Minutes of the Alameda Free Library Board Meeting December 14, 2011 UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Library Strategic Plan/Update (J. Chisaki). Following the Board's direction, Strategic Plan Goals 3 and 7 were presented for discussion: The Board approved the format presented by the Library Director. Director Chisaki indicated that a materials count is currently underway at the Libraries to determine in-house use/survey to confirm staff's belief that the library is as busy as it was prior to cuts in hours and staff and to confirm circulation numbers. President Atkin requested a breakdown of each of the items for discussion and asks the Board if they would like to talk about them; the Board agreed. GOAL 3: VISITORS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD LIBRARIES WILL HAVE SAFE, WELCOMING, AND COMFORTABLE SPACES TO USE THE LIBRARIES' RESOURCES AND PROGRAMS AND TO INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER. Objective 1: Eighty-five percent of Alameda residents will express in a community survey that the neighborhood libraries are safe, welcoming, and comfortable spaces. The Library has not conducted a survey. The Library does not have the funding to conduct a survey similar to the one used during the strategic planning process. It may be possible to do a "Survey Monkey" online survey at a future date. The City has conducted so many online surveys in the past few weeks that the community may be tired of online surveys. In-house surveys always produce overwhelming positive results because you are "preaching to the choir." Objective 2: Attendance at the neighborhood libraries as measured by door count will increase by 10% per year. Full year statistics are not available and it was recently discovered that the door counters at all three locations probably are working properly. One of the counters at the West End Library is mounted just high enough that many children are not counted! Discussion: Board Member Hartigan asked for an explanation as to why the door counters were not working. Director Chisaki explained the counters work off of an electric eye… | LibraryBoard/2011-12-14.pdf |
TransportationCommission/2011-12-14.pdf,2 | TransportationCommission | 2011-12-14 | 2 | 4. New Business 4A. Presentation of Quarterly Report on Activities Related to Transportation Policies and Plans. Staff Payne summarized the staff report. Commissioner Vargas requested a briefing about the Safe Routes to Transit application. Staff Payne responded that the funding source originates from bridge tolls in the Bay Area. The goal of the grant is to divert drivers across the bridges to become transbay bus passengers. TransForm staff stated that the funding cycle was really competitive. They liked the grant application, and stated it was well written and a beneficial project. Commissioner Moehring asked if the communities that received the grant application were closer to the bridge. Staff Payne responded that it was difficult to compete against projects that focused on higher- density areas. There is a feeling that suburban communities tend not to win as many Safe Routes to Transit grant applications. Commissioner Moehring asked if there will be public meetings for the Shoreline Dr/Westline Dr bike lane project. Staff Khan emphasized that the Shoreline Dr/Westline Dr bike lane project is going to have quite a bit of outreach starting in March 2012. Staff is waiting for Caltrans to authorize expenditures. Staff will bring this item to the Transportation Commission. Commissioner Vargas wanted to know what the TSM/TDM measures are as a prelude to the upcoming Transportation Commission meeting. Staff Payne stated that the measures are in five broad categories. Staff Khan provided an overview of the TSM/TDM Plan purpose. The idea is that developers will be able to address trips generated by a development using a menu of TSM/TDM measures. The intention is to mitigate peak hour trips using the TSM/TDM measures. Commissioner Moehring was pleased about obtaining the Gibbons Drive Safe Routes to School grant application. Commissioner Moehring stated that the Mecartney/Island intersection is enormous and was interested to know if the City could improve it without grant monies. She admires how much effort staff puts… | TransportationCommission/2011-12-14.pdf |
