Ne stated what he hears the Council saying is that they want their own library and to be able to provide a level of service that is better than what we already have at the present time.

He stated if the negotiations are in the City's favor to operate its own library, then the City should pursue this. He stated our City won't know what the County will do until we start negotiating with them. Councilmember Willjams stated she just heard that the Rancho Cucamonga Librarian, Tony Chavez, was transferred to Chino Hills. She felt he was doing a good job. Councilmember Buquet felt the Subcommittee should work with staff and meet with the County to talk about this situation. He felt legal counsel needed to check out what the City can and cannot do.
