Called to order 3:23
Add to the agenda - Library Director presents images of library plans to show to the committee.
Move to approve the 2/1/17 minutes. 1st Larry, 2nd Andy. All in favor.
Old Business:
• Meg - Library Board made a motion to slightly amend the recommendation from this group:
o "To negotiate an adjusted contract with Beth Markley as a fundraising consultant, but to hire
Amy Rush as local fundraising support staff prior to Beth Marley's contract negotiations"
o First step - Approach Amy to see if she will work with Beth.
o Adjusted contract with Beth Markley - the board is thinking it might be more economical and
successful (if she were to agree) to do a 3-4 month period, only training people.
• The Committee discussed/reviewed the goals of the Building Committee and how it will fit in with
fundraising in the future and the entire timeline of the expansion process. More discussion will
come after a contract is negotiated with a Capital Campaign Fundraiser.
New Business
• Recommendation from Committee for negotiations
o Meg will contact the applicants to let them know the Expansion Committee and Library
Board's decision.
o Meg will make an offer to Amy Rush and Beth Marley.
o Meg will prepare a contract, with the advice of City staff to present, to present to Beth and
Amy.
• Committee looked at the enhanced conceptual image from the final report from Humphries Poli.
• Andy and John have worked with the schematics provided by consultants, using input from library
staff, and created updated floor plans to include in the report. Working on more of the details.
• Meg passed around and discussed the Annual Report for the library for this fiscal year that was
presented to the City Council.
