Cc: City Council <[email protected]>; La Tierra Community Thank you Wowlvenn. I wish they’d consider the old Rite Aid building. Also thanks for staying aware of what our city council is discussing. Been out of the loop. Xo Subject: Re: Library downtown

Hello city council,
Thank you for what you do for Sebastopol. It has come to my attention that there is consideration to move the library away from downtown to the old O’Reilly building on 116.

While that might make it easier for north of town folks and the Sebastopol charter, I worry that accessibility would be an issue for the several schools and respective students closer to town and south of town to bike and walk. Parking might be much easier, but how many patrons would stop going if they could no longer bike out walk as easily? I know the bike trail runs directly to the north of the building which would beer good, but from downtown there aren’t easy or well marked safe routes to get there that I’m aware of. If a move is considered, could there be a community poll that happens first? We need our library to stay strong and I know patron usage is a huge factor in justifying funding.

Thank you,
Wowlvenn
