Title
Presentation of excerpts from the Library Advisory Board meeting of April 8, 2009, requesting the following action:
That a search for additional parking around the library building be made by the City of Coral Gables.
Body
RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER:
The recommendation from the Library Advisory Board will be forwarded to the Public Works Department to evaluate the library site and surrounding area to determine if additional parking spaces may be provided.
SUMMATION OF RECOMMENDATION:
Ileana Davis brought up the issue of the lack of parking availability around the library building, noting that people are parking under the banyan trees on University Drive even though there are "No Parking" signs posted. Ileana felt that there may be a way to create more parking spaces on the Segovia Street side. Grace Armada said that she may be able to have a "Library Patrons Only" sign posted. Dan Keys recommended that board ask for a study of the formalization of the parking on the University Drive side and evaluate if any parking could be created on the Segovia Street side. Ileana Davis moved to "Request that a search for additional parking around the library building be made by the City of Coral Gables." The motion was seconded by Nancy Leslie, voted upon and adopted with a unanimous vote.
