B. ITEMS OF DISCUSSION
1. DISCUSSION OF LONG RANGE VISIONS
Assessing the Needs
(In-house survey, Grapevine survey)
Boardmember Davies presented information on this item. She reported after the Library being open for two years they
are now serving between 1,000 an 1,300 individuals each day, have circulated over 600,000 items last year and know
they have registered over 55,000 patrons. She stated they would like to know what their patrons think of the Library
and what new services they might want for the future. She stated through their Planning Committee of she and
Boardmember Gregory they have designed two surveys to help them measure their progress. She reported the In-House
Survey asks questions of the borrowers about what they like about the library and what they think needs improving.
They have asked what they feel about the facility, what kind of services they received fi.om staff and have asked for
suggestions how to improve services. She stated the second survey is designed to be an insert in the Winter issue of the
Grapevine and would ask similar questions but would direct them to their non-users. She stated she hoped this survey
would help them plan for the futura. She stated once the results of both of the surveys have been compiled, they will
be presenting some conclusions to the Library Board in early 1997.
Mayor Alexander felt a question should be asked if the people would be willing to contribute money towards the
operation of the library.
Counciimember Williams stated she had learned at a League of California Cities Conference yesterday that you should
gather the information from the survey first and then you can determine whether people are willing to pay for services.
She asked if they had any ideas on getting people to return the survey.

Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated it could be faxed or emailed or go through regular mail.
Expanding Existing Facility
(Second floor expansion - Literacy Center, Technology Center and Parking Concerns)
Chairman Howdyshell presented the information for this item. He reported that in December, the HUD funded project
to open three quiet study areas for literacy tutoring will be under construction. He stated when completed, the three
study rooms, literacy office and a new larger storage area will help to organize the second floor into more usable space.
This will help to increase shelving in the lower level. He reported parking continues to be an issue because during peak
hours, no parking is available. He stated the Board will continue to examine any logical and cost effective solutions
for parking, but felt that by adding 50 parking spaces or more would also add 100 more users to an already crowded
facility. He asked the Council for their thoughts on the parking situation.
Councilmember Gutierrez stated he would like to see parking in the vacant lot until the housing project starts.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated there isn't enough time to put in the parking lot before the housing project starts.
Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated if here are special programs going on, there is a parking problem.
Councilmember Williams inquired how much parking is done by staff.
Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated about 18 spaces worth.
Councilmember Williams felt there could possibly be an incentive program to get them to park at Albertsons.
Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated Bob Dominguez had advised against this.
Mayor Alexander hoped that the Board would keep working on the parking problem.
Chairman Howdyshell added they would lose approximately 44 spaces when they start their construction.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated the long-term solution will be a larger facility.
Expanding Services
(Technology Center, Young Adult Services Opportunity)
Commissioner Gregory presented information on this item. She stated expanding services also means expanding
technology. She stated everyone is asking how to get "Intemet Access" and onto the Information Highway. She
mentioned that th Spring, 1997, staff proposes turning the second floor area currently unused into a Technology and
Discovery Center. She stated to provide the necessary equipment, the Library would be partnering with APS, the
business that currently supplies copy machines and public access computers in the Library. She reported that ten
computer terminals are planned for this fee-based technology center linked to both standard and color printers with full
Internet access available to the patrons including the capability of e-mail. There will also be many other software
programs available. She stated the sof~ware and furnishings of the Center will be determined by the success of their
grant application to HUD funding, and of the Spring fundraiser, the Library Telethon. She mentioned for the library
City Council/Libra~ Board Minutes
October 16, 1996
Page 3
to expand services has meant f'mding grant funding to try new things. The Literacy Program continues to be strong in
its second year of a five year grant. She stated they will be emphasizing on family literacy in 1997 and that this progrmn
will be housed next to the Technology Center which will be a vital part of the staffmg and use of the Center. She added
that the State Library is offering a grant opportunity in 1997/98 to create young Adult or Youth At Risk Programs and
that the library is anxious to apply for those funds when the window of opportunity appears. She stated that the newest
legislation to be passed at the federal level for libraries is the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA), which will
allow for competitive grant funding of technology projects across the country beginning in 1997. She pointed out that
Robert Karatsu will be working on this project and most likely attempt to partner with the schools to create a competitive
proposal for these funds. She asked if the Council had any services they would like to see the Library offer that are not
currently available or in the planning stage.
Mayor Alexander stated he did not have any suggestions, but was wondering how they were going to handle more
people in the library with new programs coming up.
Councilmember Biane stated he is concerned that the seniors will have access to the library and its services.
Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated they are looking at considering a satellite collection that would be rotating
materials for the senior center itself so that they can actually go to the senior center instead of not necessarily having
to come to the library. She stated the other thing they are looking at currently to involve them in a Grandparents with
Book Program that the state has just sent an announcement for funds available for that. She stated the seniors are very
involved with the library's volunteer program and also through Friends of the Library. She stated they are also looking
at rotating their collection of books with other libraries which would bring more of a selection to the seniors of Rancho
Cucamonga.
Councihnember Gutierrez felt an outreach program to the high school kids to let them know what is available is very
important also.
Councihnember Williams suggested that the survey also take place at the senior center to get their input.
Chairman Howdyshell suggested that the senior center be able to access thel'~brary's collection' through the Intemet for
easier access for them.
Boardmember Gregory asked if the Council might be able to support additional programs in the future.
Mayor Alexander felt they could.
Chairman Howdyshell felt there might be the need of coordination when the youth programs project starts up.
Funding Challenges
(Grant Opportunities, Library Referendum, Fundmising: TELETHON, New Services: New Money?)
Commissioner Swistock presented information on this item. He reported that staff will continue to search out grant
opportunities to increase the services and budget for the library, but that this is only a small part of the money that is
needed. He stated in 1997, the library will be using its final year of bond funds available to purchase book materials.
He stated the bond funds used to make the annual payment to the Connty of San Bemardino will be exhausted in 1998,
but added the contract demands continue to the year 2004. He added that multiple three year subscriptions of
periodicals, an index tools pumhased by bond funds in 1994, will expire in 1997. He stated the three items mentioned
City Council/Library Board Minutes
October 16, 1996
Page 3
above would impact the budget by approximately $300,000 in 1998/99. He also mentioned the Friends of the Library
have been an amazing support group, but that even with their large contributions, they alone cannot close the funding
gap. He reported that they hoped the Telethon fundraiser project would raise from $10,000 to $20,000 its first year.
He felt this might be the time to start planning for the future and asked the Council how they felt about looking for a
larger facility.
Councilmember Gutierrez stated he has not given up the dream of the library at Central Park, and wished they could
start something there. He felt the library would be a big piece of that project.
Councilmember Biane asked what was to be the funding source for the Central Park Library.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated originally that was part of the Redevelopment Plan Project which goes back to the
1980's. He stated as the increment kept going up that by 1994 they had hoped they could do another bond issue and
be able to have the first phase of Central Park, which included this 130,000 square foot library. He also stated the
thought was to have the operations dollars to maintain a much larger library. He pointed out that everyone knows what
has happened over the last five years since about 1990 with the increment going backwards. He now felt the increment
growth would be very slow so there is not the same expectations as we all had in the late 1980%. He stated for the futura
they need to think about two things. He stated in order to fund this that whatever the Agency could contribute would
not be enough to do the library and did not know when it could accomplish some increment of Central Park. He stated
they really are looking at alternative financing whether it be a bond issue or something like that. He added even if you
have a large library, how could the City cover the cost to maintain and operate it.
Councilmember Williams stated even though there is a plan for a 125,000 to 130,000 square foot building at Central
Park, that with technology happening the way it is, she did not feel the word should be put out that this is the only plan
for a libraxy the City can have there. She state.d before the project starts, the needs should be redetermined because of
all of the new technology since the 1980's.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated he agreed with Councilmember Williams that the project would need to be redefined.
Mayor Alexander felt the first phase of the Central Park library needs to be looked at. He felt there needs to be a
commitment to do something at the park site. He suggested that the Library Board make a recommendation to the
Council of what the needs are in order to start this and submit it to the Council.
Boardmember Swistock left the meeting at 6:35 p.m.
Facilities for the Future
(Central Park, Branch Locations)
Boardmember Muna-Landa presented the information for this item. She felt this is the time to look at the original
Library Services Master Plan. She added that Central Park had been discussed, and that there is still a need for an
additional branch at the east end or Etiwanda side of the City. She stated the Board realized that planning, getting the
funding and building all takes time, but that now is the time to begin to tackle the future. She stated the staff and Board
are exploring the possibilities of secured funding to support existing programs and to provide new programs. She
mentioned the California Library Association is offering a workshop on placing a library funding issue on the ballot
which would be attended by the Board President and the Director. She stated they are concerned about Prop 218 and
City Council/Library Board Minutes
October 16, 1996
Page 5
the effects it will have on local government. She stated they are looking for the Council to help them fund and assist
in their programs.
Councilmember Williams asked if the City has looked at the possibility to use the Mountjoy Bill that passed as leverage
to go to the County to try to renegotiate the commitment to them.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated he has approached the County, and stated they are really in the same position the cities
are in with mandates imposed on them.
Councilmember Williams asked if anyone knew how many residents our library serves that are from Fontana, Montclair,
etc. branches.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated part of the agreement with the County was that we allow access to residents outside of
the City into our library.
Deborah Clark, Library Manager, stated they are approximately I0% of the C'ty s user base, wh'ch ~s very low. She
added they did get $6,000 last quarter because of the services they provide to these people.
Mayor Alexander stated this could also be talked about at the City/County Conference. He suggested that the Library
Board and City Council meet in November after the election to discuss the outcome of Prop 218 and how it will affect
some of the issues brought up tonight.
Councilmember Gutierrez felt a workshop, which should also include the Library Foundation, would be a great idea.

Dear Ms. Nonis:
Attached you will find a completed Community Development Block Csrant Proposal
Application fxom Southern California Housing Development Corporation (SCHDC), in
pa~ership with the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library, for a pilot program to create
Family Learning Centers at the four apartment communities owned and managed by
SCHDC in the City of Rancho Cucamonga~ Half of the units in the.ne properties are
reserved as affordable to families of very low and low income under the terms of
agreements with the Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency; approximately 51% of
the residents qualify as low income individuals.
This proposal will extend Library services on site to the residents of Mountainside
Apartments, located at the southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Hellman Avenue.
This is the largest propen'y SCHDC owns in Rancho Cucamonga, and offers the greatest
opportunity for service to the residents. We believe this is exciting public/p~vate
partnership will provide long-lasting benefits to the residents.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me.
Since~e/~lv,
Directo~ of Social Pmgram~
8265 Aspen $~reet. Suite 100 Rancho Cucamonga. CA 91730 {909) 483-2444 Fa..',: [909} 483-2448
The CDBG regulations also list activities that are eXplicitly ineligible to receive assistance. In
general, ineligible projects are religious facilities, new housing conslmction, general govenunent
expenses, the purchase of equipment, and operating and maintenance expenses.
COMPLETING THE PROPOSED APPLICATION
In order for this application to be accepted for processing and consideration, it must be
completely idled out in a clear and legible manner with all requested or necessary
documentation attached. Answers should be brief and completed in the space ~ovidecL
Additional sheets may be used if absolutely necessary or if requested. Answers shall be provided
in the same order as in the .application.
The City receives a limited amount of CDBG funds and typically hag requests for over two s~4 a
half times the anmlal allocation; therefore, the application process should be considered highly
competitive.
Requested projects shall primarily benefit citizens of Rancho Cucamonga. Justification for the
