RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Librarian, or designee, to apply for and accept a grant in the amount of $5,000 from East Bay Community Foundation, administered by the Rodeo Municipal Advisory Council, for Rodeo Library services, pursuant to the local refinery Good Neighbor Agreement for the period January 1 through June 30, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No Library Fund match.
BACKGROUND:
The County currently funds 19 hours of library service at the Rodeo Library. If granted, the $5,000 received from Rodeo Municipal Advisory Council will be used by the Contra Costa County Library to fund four additional hours of library service from January 1 through June 30, 2016, which will provide one extra hour of service on Saturdays and evening hours on two weekdays for a total of four additional open hours each week. These extended hours offer Rodeo residents more opportunities to make use of the educational and recreational resources available in the library.
