ROLL CALL Present: Commissioners Earley, Campbell, Falltrick, Isaak, Miller, Moss, & Olsen Absent: None Guests: Mr. Robert F. Beyer, City Manager and Ms. Pamela Hook, Regional Librarian II. CONSIDERATION OF PREDEVELOPMENT AND OFF SITE DEVELOPMENT COSTS FOR PROPOSED CITY OWNED LIBRARY SITE AND CONSIDERATION OF NEW ALTERNATE SITE AT THE CORNER OF SARATOGA AVENUE AND FRUITVALE AVENUE The City Manager reviewed for the members of the Commission the information pertaining to the public hearing which will be held later this evening before the City Council concerning the final determination of the library site. He indicated that under consideration was a site on the gore of Saratoga Avenue and Fruitvale, in addition, to the previously discussed site on Saratoga Avenue, closer to Sacred Heart Church, as well as, the site on Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and Cox Avenue. He felt this was a reasonable compromise due to the extremely high cost considerations of the site at Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and Cox Avenue and did provide some additional benefits over the site near Sacred Heart Church. The Commission discussed this in some depth, indicating they still generally favor the original site recommended by them, which was the Sacred Heart site. After further discussion, it was moved by Commissioner Isaak and seconded by Commissioner Earley, that the Commission go on record recommending to the City Council that the Sacred Heart site is the preferred site for the Saratoga Library, that the "gore" site is acceptable, and that the Cox Avenue-Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road site is unacceptable, and that no further sites be considered by the City Council. The vote carried unanimously. III. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:45 P.M. f-~Lespectful ly submitted, L R]ber~. Beyer~ i Secretary
