The library would like to keep all gender bathrooms on the 1st floor. This leaves 2 choices; keeping the gender -neutral bathrooms on both floors or redesign the restrooms on the 2nd floor to have seperate male and female restrooms. He discussed the costs of the redesign and noted the conference room would be smaller. Meeting space: If we move forward with the redesign of the bathrooms, we lose space in the largest meeting room. The space that was originally designed as a co -working space can be opened for a more functional meeting space. We would need to remove columns and add countertop and sink. He discussed costs of this redesign. Council direction: Move forward with the nanowalls and redesign of the 2nd floor restrooms and co -working space. 10. REPORTS OF COUNCIL COMMITTEES A.
