RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Librarian, or designee, to execute the attached Library Maintenance and Service Agreement between Contra Costa County and the City of Walnut Creek, for the operation of the Ygnacio Valley Library located at 2661 Oak Grove Road, Walnut Creek for Fiscal Year 2019-2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No additional fiscal impact. The agreement serves to document the current practice.
BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County provides each city library in the County system with 35 Base Hours per week, provided that the city funds all costs for maintenance. Both the Walnut Creek Library and the Ygnacio Valley Library are open 56 hours per week, above the base 35 hours provided for libraries that pay for their maintenance costs. The Walnut Creek Library is the only one of the two that is currently covered by a lease agreement, signed in 2010 when the rebuilt Walnut Creek Library reopened. The Ygnacio Valley Library, being a County-owned building, is not covered by any such agreement. This is an effort to create consistency and document the agreement between the two parties.
