Trustees flag parking shortfall for Oct. 7 'Bajan gathering,' suggest high-school shuttle or alternate site
Summary
Trustees heard organizer plans for about 60 attendees at an Oct. 7 community gathering and raised concerns about limited library parking during school hours; options discussed included shuttling from the high school, moving the event to the old high school, or using the park campground.
Trustees revisited a prior discussion about a community event referred to in the meeting as the 'Bajan gathering' and expressed concerns about parking if roughly 60 people attend during the school day. Committee member (Speaker 4) said, "Maybe Bonnie was gonna look into that" and later that "I think there's, like, 60 people coming," prompting conversation about how 30 cars could overwhelm a 27-space lot.
Board members suggested mitigation: asking participants to carpool, arranging shuttle parking at the high school, or relocating to a larger venue (the old high school or the park campground); Chair (Speaker 2) said she would "ask Denise" (the organizer) and trustees agreed to consider parking options at an upcoming check-in. The board left the item for follow-up rather than making a formal decision at the meeting.
