Summary

Public Works approved the commission's plan to install a Little Free Library outside the recycling center, asking that the unit be slightly larger and monitored to prevent overwhelming donations; the commission will manage monitoring and move large donations to the swap shop when needed.

Kim reported Public Works director Howard has approved the commission's proposal to build a Little Free Library at the recycling center, but he recommended a slightly larger unit and monitoring to avoid large, unmanageable donations piling up.

The commission will take responsibility for monitoring and routing oversized donations to the swap shop or the swap shack. Members suggested potential volunteers with building skills to construct the unit and discussed seasonal monitoring needs as weather changes.

The project is now an approved commission initiative pending volunteer coordination for construction and ongoing oversight.
