Elk River Public Library Board Page 2 <br />July 27th, 2021 <br />4. Open Forum <br />S. General Business <br />5.1 New Business <br />a. Building walk through <br />■ Those attending walked through the building noting some <br />maintenance issues and old CIP items as well as adding some new <br />CIP items. Ms. Schake noted that the Wi-Fi and projector in the <br />library community room was updated. The entry way, children's area, <br />and fireplace seating area were first on the walk through. It was noted <br />that the lock on one of the entry way bathrooms had a maintenance <br />issue as well as one of the ladybug lights in the children's area had a <br />light out. Ms. Schake will put both of those issues in for a <br />maintenance request with the city. Mr. Femrite also stated that he and <br />Gary Lore, building maintenance supervisor, walked the building and <br />grounds recently and made a check list for general maintenance issues <br />that they need to take care of. The entire facility has been updated <br />with LED lighting and weather stripping. Ms. Schake would like to <br />move one of the smaller upholstered chairs in the children's area into <br />the board book area cave. The chairs do need to be reupholstered or <br />new ones need to be purchased. The patterned upholstered chairs <br />facing the window by the fireplace area also need to either be <br />replaced or reupholstered. <br />■ The fiction area and public computer stations were the second area <br />of focus. It was brought up that the rug under the upholstered chairs <br />in the fiction area needs replacing and Ms. Schake requested that the <br />Board consider replacing five of the computer chairs used by the <br />public and five of the staff chairs. Ms. Schake also pointed out the <br />shelving units that are braced. Eventually they may need to be <br />replaced when bracing is no longer sufficient. <br />• The teen area and study rooms were third on the walk through. The <br />Board pointed out that a cleaning of the upholstery is needed. Ms. <br />Schake will place that request in the city maintenance system as well. <br />The board reviewed the cork flooring between the teen area and the <br />computer stations. Stains and wear and tear were identified. <br />■ The staff area in the back area of the library was last on the walk <br />through. <br />P0VF.Ir1! 1Y <br />NATURE <br />
