Phase I of the contract to Melvin-Thoryk & Associates calls for,
among other things, assistance in site selection for the proposed
Childreds Library. The November 18, 1976, meeting .of the Children
Library committee reviewed several possible sites and decided to
recommend site #4. Since land acquisition is involved it is felt
that council discussion and direction is advisable prior to formal
recommendation of the Site #4 location.
Staff review of the #4 site plans resulted in a suggested rnodifica
which involves the entire civic center needs rather than just the
Childrenk Library. It is staff's recommendation that, if acquisit
of Mrs. Laws' property is considered, the adjoining parcel between
Yrs. Laws' and Elm Avenue also be acquired. This would allow the formation of an R-1 zone fronting on Highland, eliminate a private
owned strip of land which would be very difficult to develop and
provide more flexibilify in locating the Children's Library and
at the same time allow us to meet existing but unfulfi.lled parking needs.

MEMORANDUM
TO : Public Works Administrator
FROM: Civil Engineering Associate
SUBJECT: Childrens Library - Consultants Study
On November 18, 1976, the library consultant, Melvin Thoryk and Associates, presented working paper No. 2 entitled ''Site Studies' The Childrens Library committee after reviewing the sites agreed
that Site No. 4 was the most logical for development of a Childre Library.
City staff (Engineering and Planning) reviewed Site No. 4 and
concurred with the committee's recommendation except for a
supplemental recommendation to purchase additional land.
The reasons for staff recommendation are:
1. Protection of residential development along
Highland Drive.
2. Elimination of a narrow strip of land on Elm
which would be difficult to develop.
3. Allow more area for site development and
meeting parking needs of existing adult library as well as the childrens library.
