Re : Agreement for Library Services and Maintenance,
Pinole Branch Library 19-19-95 agenda item C 31 l
Dear Members of the Board:
I urge you to support the above-referenced item at your
meeting on September , 19 . The proposed agreement is a "win win"
situation, for both the County and City of Pinole .
The Pinole Library roof leaks badly. In the heavy storms
of last winter. , water leaked on brand new computer equipment as
well as on books and other materials. We have been very fortunate
that , due in large part to the extraordinary efforts of library
staff to keep things dry, relatively little permanent damage has
been done to library materials and equipment . The leaks also pose
a serious safety hazard . Water leaks onto electrical equipment
and directly in front of an electric stove , and the buckets placed
on the floor to catch water could easily be tripped over.
The Pinole Branch Library is a county building and
therefore it is the county' s responsibility to make repairs . I 'm
sure I do not, need to remind you that money for a ma.jor repair
like this just is not available in the meager library budget. By
accepting the Pinole Redevelopment Agency advance of funds under
this agreement , the county can fix the roof now and pny back the
advance on a more manageable basis over several years .
The City of Pinole also gains in this agreement. Its
residents and others who come to Pinole to use the library will
once again have a water-tight facility and will have enhanced
library services as well .
The Friends of the Pinole Library, a fundraising and
volunteer support organization of which I serve as president , is
also on record in favor of this agreement .
Very truly yours
