COUNTY LIBRARIAN HAYWARD. CALIFORNIA 94545.2787 Q (415) 881-6337 '9l I F p FtN� July 17, 1986 Mr. Richard Ambrose, City Manager City of Dublin 6500 Dublin Blvd. , Suite 101 Dublin, CA 94568 Dear Richard: SUBJECT: CONTRACT FOR ADDITIONAL LIBRARY HOURS Enclosed are five copies of the Contract to provide for the City of Dublin to fund Alameda County for additional open hours at the Dublin Library. The contract is just like the one signed last year for Monday morning and afternoon and Thursday evening with the increase in costs that I told you would be the case for the coming year. Schedule and procedures for payment are the same as in previous years. I am so pleased that the City Council agreed to fund the Library to be open on Sunday afternoon! I am sure that these additional hours of library service will be very popular with Dublin's residents. This contract does NOT include payment for this added service. I am proceeding to determine both the exact costs and starting date of this service. As soon as I have this information, I will do an addendum to this contract. I anticipate you will have the Sunday hours addendum before the end of August and that we should be able to begin open hours on Sundays by October or November. If we run into problems that change these dates, I will let you know. If the costs are much different from those I've estimated, I will also be in touch with you. Please have the contracts that I have enclosed signed by the Mayor and return all five copies to me. I will send them on to the Board of Supervisors for their approval and will return a fully executed copy to you. Please contact me if you have any questions.
