DIRECTOR'S REPORT—by Ann
Linda Butler from Eagle Arts Commission called wanting to know if a mural related to Idaho or
Eagle history could be created for one of the rooms in the Library. The city has approved funded
for a"library mural." Board discussed idea of the painting going on wall panels or banners that
are movable as opposed to being permanent which can cause problems during renovations.
John Ryan of Smokey Mountain Pizza agreed to Ann's request that he deliver a presentation on
patron service. Date and time yet to be scheduled.
Idaho has adopted a drug free policy. The initial discussion was a bit disconcerting to the staff
because many questions were not answered, particularly those related to privacy. The staff is not
as concerned now as their questions are being addressed. Jill Chestnut of Drug Free Idaho will be
coming in for a mandatory training meeting with staff on March 27. Ann had to find out how to
handle discussion with staff who are minors; parents have to sign a separate form. Testing is
done if there is reasonable suspicion.
COMMITTEE REPORTS—none
UNFINISHED BUSINESS

ADJOUNMENT-7:40 move to adjoin to 3M presentation. Saw very thorough presentation of technology
direction with some discussion of Eagle facility implications.No specific decisions or commitments made.
