CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT City Council Meeting
CITY OF MOORPARK of Ap r i'1 15 199g
AC TON:
The Honorable City Council
Mary K. Lindley, Director of Community Services
April 6, 1998 (For April 15, 1998 City Council Meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider Amendment to the Ventura County Free Library System MOU
mm
The Ventura County Library Commission is recommending an amendment to the newly adopted
Ventura County Free Library System Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to require a
withdrawing party to provide six month's written notice. The Commission is requesting that each
party's elected body consider and approve the proposed amendment (see Attachment A).
Background
The Moorpark City Council approved the City's participation in the Ventura County Free Library
System MOU on December 17, 1997. As currently written, the MOU states that an individual
party may withdraw from participation in the MOU upon giving thirty days written notice. The
City of Fillmore requested that the Commission consider amending the provision to require six
months written notice. The additional time would allow a "cooling off' period and provides the
remaining parties with sufficient time to identify the financial and organizational impacts of the
withdrawal. The Commission unanimously agreed to the amendment.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to the Ventura County
Free Library MOU and direct staff to communicate the City's action to the other participating
parties.
