Council has another room for meetings. Davidson asked if anyone would be opposed to including the Library expansion in with Capital Projects for 2000. No one was opposed. Keany questioned whether there was a.typographical error in the Capital Projects 2000 numbering, as the Levels are numbered I, II, IV. Council agreed that the Levels should read I, II, III. Davidson questioned the goal of installing a Library protection system at a cost of $38,000 and requested information regarding the theft rate as a protection may or may not be needed. He suggested changing the word install to evaluate. Keany suggested also including the task of performing a full Library inventory. Davidson replied that a sampling inventory would be sufficient and suggested that it read evaluate by means of inventory. Levihn asked for clarification that Council discussed contracting for an arborist/forester, versus adding an FTE for one. Howard replied that staff felt that with the number of trees in the medians and parks, etc., an arborist/forester would be a continuing need. Mayer stated that he believes the arborist/forester was a full-time position but Council discussed contracting for a wildlife biologist. Keany asked for clarification that the funding for an open space/parks task force included performing a wildlife inventory. Davidson suggested that the task force should be an Open Space/Parks/Trails/Wildlife Task Force. Council agreed. Davidson suggested adding a goal to the City Administrator's Tasks, as a Level II. He requested adding an evaluation of the Louisville Housing Authority's contract with Boulder County to determine if the services should be done in-house. Council agreed. Howard moved that Council adopt the Proposed 2000 Goals, as amended, seconded by Sisk. All in favor. 7
