Mr. Norbash reported briefly on the City's investigation into necessary utility relocations if the present alley is used for the parking deck. Discussion focused particularly on the issue of the parking deck and its location. Board members unanimously agreed that the proposal leaving greater distance between the new deck and the MedArk Building was much to be preferred, both in aesthetic terms: as well as practical terms that meet present and future Library needs. After Ms. Laleh-Amirmoez and Mr. Norbash left the meeting at 4:25, there was a brief discussion of proposed budget changes that had been recommended by the Budget Committee to meet City of Fayetteville requests. Reductions were made particularly in new personnel requests and in projected expenses resulting from the MedArk Building utilization. The motion by Foster Park, seconded by Camilla Crouch, to approve the Budget Committee recommendation was passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at lu 35 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Foster Park, Secretary
