Mount Lebanon library board approves consent agenda; renovation, fundraising and staffing updates given
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda, heard a renovation update with a potential late-August start, reviewed fundraising plans including a virtual garden tour and themed raffle baskets, and received staffing and operations updates.
The Mount Lebanon Library board approved the consent agenda and heard a series of operational and project updates at its regular meeting.
On the consent agenda, the Chair asked for a motion to approve and the board recorded an affirmative voice vote; the motion carried.
In committee reports, fundraising volunteers described a virtual garden tour in June and a themed raffle (a dog-themed basket) with an estimated $140 budget for raffle supplies. Organizers asked for volunteers and reported in-kind donations from local retailers.
Robin (Director) provided a renovation update: the project team met with design consultants and Gateway Engineers; the construction management request for proposal is being prepared and legal counsel advised that the construction manager is professional services and therefore not subject to competitive bidding, while the construction work itself will be put out to bid. Provided schedules hold, staff said construction work could start in late August, and several meeting rooms and staff areas may be repurposed or temporarily closed during construction.
Robin also reported operational matters: the library will be closed for the Memorial Day holiday, a full-time senior services librarian position was posted with interviews planned after June 1, and time clocks and municipal photo IDs were recently implemented for part-time staff.
Votes at a glance: - Consent agenda: motion to approve carried (yes: 3; no: 0; individual recorded votes not specified in the transcript).
The meeting adjourned following a motion to adjourn and an affirmative voice vote.
