Library Budget FY 1992/93 City Manager Everett reminded everyone of the two national honors bestowed on the Redwood City Library and its Literacy Program. - Library Director Light described the proposed FY 1992/93 budget with only a 2.5% increase over FY 1991/92 and elaborated on the two new programs and one position the Library is requesting: the youth at risk program; the drop-in homework program; and a building monitor, a casual position of 1,000 hours, for evening and week-end duties. Karen Peterson, Sequoia Infant Toddler Center Director, spoke in favor of the new programs and position. In response to questions from Bill Uehlein, Senior Field Representative, SEIU, Local 715, Director Light explained that the proposed monitor position would probably be filled by two people over a six-day period and 1,000 hours were fewer than half the hours of a full-time employee. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.
