There are a number of variables that could affect this figure including whether city employees take a second year salary freeze and/or other concessions. The City Manager has asked all departments to begin to prepare a 5% reduced level of service which we could put in place until we see the economic situation improve. Therefore, cuts we may need to make would hopefully not be permanent but would be for the next FY with the hope that we will see improvement in Burlingame's economy in FY 2011/12. 1 will be meeting with Jim and Jesus Nava on Friday, January 8 to review the library's budget for the next fiscal year. Meeting.

These funds are typically used for staff anniversary awards — usually $10 gift card to Books, Inc. The last time we received a check for this account was June, 2007 and it is now depleted. Al's Tea At the November Trustees meeting the Trustees voted to allocate $1,000 for the cost of the Staff Recognition Party and the Tea to honor Al. The cost of the Staff Recognition Party totaled $1,731.05. This cost was split with the Library Foundation — each group to pay $865.52. The cost of AI's Tea was $1.075.44. In addition to the $1,000 allocated in November, I would like to request an additional $940.97 to cover the costs of the Tea. A breakdown of the costs is attached. Marty Brounstein - Practical Solutions Group I have been working with Marty Brounstein of the Practical Solutions Group since July 2009. He was hired by the City to work with me as a leadership development coach. Up until now the City has paid for his training & coaching. They are no longer able to provide the funds. I would like to request funds of $4800 to pay for Marty Brounstein to continue working with me on change management. This would pay for 4 hours a month for the next 6 months at a rate of$200/hr. Background. In FY 2008/2009 the downturn in the economy led to a reduction in the city's general fund. The budget impact on the library was a reduction of our hourly staff by 25%. In order to accomplish this, staff developed a new service model - a Joint Service Desk for reference and circulation. We went from double staffing two desks - the circulation and reference desks to combining the desks to make a joint desk and staffing it with one librarian and one library assistant. A number of other changes were made to help alleviate the pressure on the much reduced staff, but this change had the biggest impact on remaining staff. Marty Brounstein was hired by the City to work with me on a leadership development program. Marty has been working with me and coaching me in change management for the past 6 months. As we face another year of downsizing of staff through both retirements and potentially fewer hourly people and new management challenges, this training & coaching will help with the transition through organization's change. t � T Retirement Tea Expenses Vendor items Amount Carlmont Party table & china rental $ 313.42- Copenhagen 13.42Copenha en Bakei coffee cakes for staff 27.65 Whole Foods tea sandwiches, pastries 569.94 Peets Coffee and Tea coffee, tea, hot water 62.90 containers Cathy Somerton misc, decorations 78.62 Amy Gettle flowers 22.91 Total Expenses $1,075.43 Remaining funds from 134.48 $1,000 ($865.52 Staff Event Total Request for Tea $ 940.96 Expenses Expenses for Employee Event Vendor Item Amount Carlmont Party plates and glasses $ 213.75 Classic Party Rentals stage 215.00 Mary Spalding steel drums 550.00 Cathy Somerton decorations 78.63 Mollie Stone's turkey & beef plus misc. 500.00 Edmond's Plaza Florist flowers for Sue Reiterman 142.03 and Ma beth James-Thibodeaux Amy Gettle Flowers 31.64 Total $1,731.05 1/2 Foundation $ 865.53 1/2 Trustees $ 865.52 11N- Joint Service Desk Ergonomic retrofit The Library Board of Trustees authorized the allocation of up to $35,000 from the Wayne Willert Trust for the ergonomic retrofit of the Joint Service Desk at their March 17, 2009 meeting. Plans for the Joint Service desk retrofit have been submitted by Group 4, the original architect and Bob Schmidt from Ross McDonald is producing the shop drawings. In addition to retrofitting the desk, a task force led by Linda Santo and including Maribeth Farcich, Daniel Alvarez, Geralyn O'Brien, Manuel Caneri, and Ramona Boada worked with an ergonomic consultant hired by the city and a number of vendors to determine the best ergonomic equipment needed at the desk. The total cost of the project including the design, retrofit, and equipment is $23, 342.96. Ross McDonald Co., Inc. QUOTATION V64 Stealth 5t,cot Project No.: B9193 L venrrore.

The Task Force ordered sample products for the joint desk staff to try while working on the desk. This included many samples of the same type of product. We sampled a total of 4 chairs, 3 monitor arms, 4 footrests, 4 lights, and at least 4 mice. These are our recommendations, all purchased from Office Relief in San Leandro; price quote is at the end of the report. Product Quantity Seating Office Master 2 CLS61-TEK with arms Comments: Circulation staff does not feel there is a need for new chairs for them. We are choosing two chairs for double staffing of Reference on Sundays. Lighting SpaceCo WAVE LED w/dimmer 2 Comments: Again, Circulation does not feel the need for task lighting. They hope to resolve the light issue in the cash register area by having facilities fix the broken light. One WAVE light will be used at Reference & Station#1 for now. Monitor Arms Humanscale M2 Flat Panel 4 Comments: The Circulation staff does feel personally in need of monitor arms but it was agreed that all four stations should have monitor arms for consistency and future use. Foot Rest WorkRite Height and Angle 2 FootRester Comments: The Reference staff is very happy with this footrest and purchased the sample. The Circulation staff would like just one for their use. IL- We are not in agreement over the mouse we will use. It is possible to attach two different mice to one station and that may be our solution. There is still one additional mouse to sample but we can do that after these products are purchased. Circulation staff does not need any new mice, they are satisfied with what they are currently using. In conclusion, we felt that working cooperatively was the best way to approach this issue.
