recommendation

 

Moved by Councillor Hughes

That administration work with the library to present a project charter as an alternative to the library branch for the 2018 budget, which includes moving CPS out of their current main floor office space and repurposing it for a library expansion.  The charter would include a plan for how the expansion space and current library space would be reorganized to optimize its use.  The project charter would include the estimated renovation costs and any additional expected operating costs.

 

The charter would also include a medium and long term option plan to move the museum and/or other office space in St. Albert Place and repurpose that space for the library, with the capital and operating costs to renovate that space for a further library expansion.
