Access corridor behind the Mount Pleasant Library (Gregg)
ANC 1D resolves to award a contract to the Mount Pleasant Latino Association (LA), to be administered by 1D's staff group, with the following provisos:
1] The intents of this project are to provide (a) the chance for an access corridor starting in the west side yard of the Mount Pleasant Library and extending roughly south so that ladder fire trucks could reach the rear of almost a dozen buildings, and (b) there will be a single entrance for all, and that entrance will go well beyond ADA standards as an immediate and attractive access - not long or apparently difficult.
2] 1D will pay for expert advice on the safety, architectural, public participation, and legal issues involved in pursuing 1D's resolutions on the Library upgrade, but no more than the funds raised by other groups with the intents of item 1] above. 1D will not pay more than $3000 for this project.
3] If the Latino Association does not have a bank account to administer this contract, then it may designate an established, incorporated Mt Pleasant civic group representing residents to handle the accounts, so long as that group does not exercise any further control than to assure fiduciary responsibility. 1D encourages the Latino Association to manage this project with a strong outreach to other ward one groups, including 1C, that have been substantially active in supporting the intents of item 1] above.
4] 1D funds shall be used only to support positions embodied in its resolutions.
Passed, 3 to 1 (lepanto opposed)
