work to submit an application to the State of California for Proposition 85 Library Construction
Act funds based on a 33,000 SF building, and
WHEREAS, the Town's grant application was unsuccessful which necessitates redesign of the
project to an 18,000 SF building, and

floor and Town Council desires to keep the footprint as small as possible to enlarge the open
space, and
WHEREAS, this can be accomplished with a 15,700 SF footprint, and
WHEREAS, the library project is counting on the support of the community for donations in
many areas, and
WHEREAS, total design costs are expected to be $550,000 of which $315,000 has been
appropriated for design work for the Danville Library project; Now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that staff be directed to design an 18,000 SF branch library with a 15,700
SF footprint based on placing mechanical equipment on the second floor; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED that $235,000 be appropriated from the Civic Facilities fund for the
purpose of designing and developing construction documents for the Danville Branch Library
project; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED that staff and Town Council initiate a coordinated townwide
fundraising effort.
