Elk River Public Library Board Page 3 <br />March 27, 2018 <br />----------------------------- <br /> <br /> <br />The Board agreed with the putting paper towel and foam dispensers in <br />the public bathrooms for now, but will keep this on the list as a possible <br />CIP project in the future. It was agreed that a foam dispenser will not be <br />placed in the children’s bathroom. Robbie is to call Gary if there are any <br />further issues with the hand dryers or excess water on the bathroom <br />floor. <br /> <br />5.1.b Potential Eagle Scout Project – Johnny Helm, Eagle Scout <br /> <br />Eagle Scout, Johnny Helm, is completing his volunteer service project <br />required for his scout badge and proposes adding plants to the rain <br />garden in the parking lot. He would like to spruce up the campus by <br />planting Black Eyed Susan, New England Aster, Cardinal Flower, Prairie <br />Smoke and Butterfly Milkweed. This will provide different blooms for <br />different seasons; the greenery will help with water runoff and filtration; <br />and it will provide plant life for pollinators. Parks has a $1000 budget for <br />library grounds they would use, but costs are expected to be only about <br />$800. They will not plant directly around the Master Gardener boxes. <br />Their plan is to plant on Saturday, May 19 and Saturday, May 26. <br /> <br />There was concern about blocking off the parking area during a busy <br />Saturday, so Johnny agreed to work 2-6pm each date so they don’t <br />disturb parking. <br /> <br />Moved by Mary Keifenheim and seconded by Mary Eberley to <br />approve the Eagle Scout project presented by Johnny Helm. <br />Motion carried 5-0. <br /> <br />5.1.c.
