The Library is Now Open 📚
What is being done to prevent future issues?
While monitoring illicit behavior in private spaces can be challenging, a variety of significant security upgrades are currently being implemented such as the following:
- Monitoring bathroom access and vape detector alarms that will alert staff to drug activity
- Increased funding for additional library staff for better patron experience
- Expanded private security firm contract to conduct additional surveillance inside and outside the library
- At its February 27 study session, city council agreed to add four additional security guards at the Civic Center
Neighborhood groups can apply for up to $3,000 for their neighborhood project. The most successful projects will bring neighbors together, celebrate your neighborhood’s unique character, engage skills and knowledge from neighbors and improve quality of life for your neighbors.
Applications are open and due on April 17.
