Public Comment (?)
Dear Town Council,
7.3 I am writing to express my support for the initiative to build a new library. As a wheelchair user and Truckee resident for 36 years, I have encountered increasing challenges in accessing the current library due to its outdated facilities and cramped space. A new library is not only necessary for those with mobility issues, but it will also be an important aspect to our town's emergency preparedness.
Once built, the new library will be the only emergency resource center in Truckee equipped with permanent back-up power, modern communication capabilities, and fuolo ADA compliance. This will ensure that all residents, regardless of physical ability, can rely on it during times of natural disaster. The combination of these features will provide a safe and efficient hub for information, resources, and community support.
Thank You for considering this important bond measure!
Bill Bowness
