Library courtyard plan shifts to in‑ground landscaping; student member flags timing and cost issues
Summary
Student member Olivia Pajak reported the library courtyard project has shifted from planters to in-ground installations, making the work more invasive and unlikely to be feasible during the school year; she will seek cost estimates from a prior branch manager and secure current manager approval.
Olivia Pajak, a non-voting student member, updated the Commission on the tree campus/courtyard renovation. The project originally proposed planters but design changes are moving toward in-ground installations, which Pajak said are more invasive and present scheduling and safety challenges for work during the school year.
Pajak said she will contact the prior branch manager to obtain cost estimates and will confirm the current branch manager's approval before proceeding. Commissioners agreed that in-ground work would likely need to wait for a school break to avoid disrupting students and to meet safety requirements.
