Gray, President, Palm Springs Public Library Board of Trustees RE: 1.C. JOINT PUBLIC HEARING OF TIIE CITY COUNCIL AND COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOR ADOPTION OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2010-11 BUDGET. Good Evening. My name is David Gray, and I am here as the President of the Board of Trustees of the Palm Springs Public Library to urge that there be NO FURTHER CUTS to the Palm. Springs Public Library. The past two years have seen tremendous reductions across the board in both personnel and services here in Palm Springs, but perhaps no other department has been hard hit as the public library. Due to early retirements and staff reductions,the total personal at the library has gone from a high of almost 24, to a little over 14 FTEs; a 38 percent reduction. During this same two-year period, the total budget, (including all reductions in personnel costs), has been reduced by more than $l million, and the number of days the library can be open has dropped from six to five and from 56 hours to only 37 hours per week. This has impacted every service in the library at a time when more and more of our full- time and seasonal residents, as well as our tourists are using and depending on our library's services. Among the many services we've had to cut back on are: C41cz.j._oio • reference service and youth service desks have been eliminated. • literacy services, much in demand, have been eliminated • the number ofmaterials on the shelves is reduced • public programming for youth and adults has been cut in half • staff check-out of materials eliminated • cessation of the popular passport application service Yet, despite these drastic reductions,the Library staff is doing its best to be more efficient, continue to produce public programs such as computer instruction, children's story limes, and information lectures with speakers without fees. But to continue to operate a library that is relevant to our community and offer our residents what they need from a library,we cannot afford any further cuts. In this recession everyone is hurting and more and more residents are borrowing materials they used to purchase, using Internet access they can no longer afford to subscribe to, and needing family programs because it costs ton much to take everyone out for entertainment. For almost 70 years, Palm Springs residents have depended on the Palm. Springs Public Library to be there. With more than 22,000 people a month coming through the doors and borrowing more than 35,000 materials a month, Palm Springs cannot afford any further cuts to its public library. Thank you. aO QpLMSpR2 r City CouncW Redevelo ment A enc Staff Report DATE.

AMES THOMPSON City Clerk/Assistant Secretary 17 Page 1 of 1 Cindy Berardi From: JoeMyers Omyersl2@dc.rr.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 4:46 PM To: CityClerk Subject: Pool closure I have enjoyed arthritis swim classes at the Palm Springs City pool for a year. It has been very beneficial for me. Classes taught by Elayne Rosenberg have also been very therapeutic for me and I pay $3.00 per session. As a Senior Citizen who has worked most of my life at one facility in Palm Springs, I still cannot afford $10.00 per session even if I could find a place to get this therapy. Every day Elayne holds her classes we have a pool full of people. There were 23 in class on Monday April 26, 2010. The classes are full of Senior Citizens who have recently had knee of hip surgery or those needing surgery. A lot of our group are on canes, walkers and need pool therapy to begin their road to recovery. This is Doctor recommended. Has anyone ever thought about the heat we have in Palm Springs and how much that pool is also needed for our youth in the Schools for swim meets? If the city feels they need budget cuts, let them look to the top and cut some of the fat and don't use a recreation wee depend on for our survival. Please direct this to all City Council members.

Lady and Gentlemen, leaders of our community! The Desert Sun mentioned today that the city is considering the closure of the PS Swim Center (among other cuts). Although I am aware of the budget constrains that the city of PS has to deal with I am urging you to take the pool off the list of the budget cuts! This pool is serving the entire PS School district that has no other pools built in it's schools and Is the only Aquatic center available for the Palm Springs Swimming and Water Polo teams that are keeping hundreds of kids off the streets, engaged in a successful and high quality aquatics programs, that are the best refuge from the heat in the desert! I have seen the Mayor frequenting the pool many times and I am sure that he appreciates the value of the swim center for tourists as well as to the city's adults and many kids!

I have just signed both of my kids up to swim for the Piranhas this year. We, as a family, are so excited that the City of Palm Springs has this pool available to its community. We have our own pool at home but really wanted our kids to be more involved in their community. My husband and his sister both swam for the Piranhas and Palm Springs high school, and it would be such a shame for the future swimmers and students of Palm Springs and the surrounding cities to not have that opportunity. There are:so few after school activities for our children and more and more are being cut each year. Please reconsider not cutting this one. Swimming promotes health,team work and a sense of accomplishment that so many kids need these days. thank you for listening.

I'm writing to tell you that our pool is an asset to not only our residents, visitors, high school students in the Palm Springs Unified and the Desert Sands school districts, but to Southern California Swimming,the local level of USA Swimming as well. The pool generates revenue for the city. Last November, the Piranhas hosted their annual swim meet with 1,000 swimmers and their families attending. These families came from throughout Southern California, Nevada,Arizona and Utah to stay a minimum of two hotel nights in Palm Springs. Many stayed the entire week. All dined out in our city's restaurants. The Piranhas, which have served the youth of Palm Springs for close to 40 years, host several meets each year, bringing millions of dollars of revenue into the city. Also, Palm Springs High School hosts an annual swim meet with 20 high schools attending from throughout Southern California, again bringing revenue to the city. The pool hosts three high school's weekly dual meets for water polo and swimming (Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, and Cathedral City high schools.) Stop by the pool this weekend and see the families coming to the Piranha swim meet. Or stop by Saturday, May 1st to see the Palm Springs High School Invitational. Stop by any afternoon to see the pool filled with Piranhas, Palm Springs, and Cathedral City High School students. What will these kids do if the pool is closed? Please reconsider having a discussion of closing the pool. The Palm Springs Swim Center is truly a gem of a pool, one of the most beautiful in all of Southern California. It's an asset the city should be proud to have.

From: Wickham, William (INDIAN WELLS, CA) [mailto:will iam_r_wckham@ml,com] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 9:59 AM To: Ginny Foat Subject: City Pool Ginny I was just informed that the City of Palm Springs is considering closing the city pool . I can think of nothing that would be more disastrous . The city pool is one of the ONLY positive recreational activities that the city of palm springs offers. When considering the impact of closing the pool you must reject this idea. Hundreds of families hundreds of regular guests and THOUSANDS of lives have been positively impacted by the city pool. The city pool in association the 2 high schools and the Piranhas have produced 2 Olympians, hundreds of college athletes , and thousands of high school swimmers. We cannot begin to calculate the number of lives that have been saved by those people who, having aquatic experience (knowing how to swim), have either saved their own life or someone else's. Please consider the impact VERY carefully. Respectfully William R.
