RESOLUTION: NEED ONGOING, POST-CONSTRUCTION BLIP REVIEWS
Whereas effective completion of the branch library
modernization program is critical to the residents of San Francisco, and
Whereas, the Controller’s
performance review of the West Portal library renovation recommended
changes to enable San Francisco Public Library and the Department of
Public Works to better manage the modernization program so as to
complete all projects on time and on budget; and
Whereas, the
Controller revealed failures in communication and internal systems;
Therefore be it
resolved that:
To avoid errors in BLIP construction (e.g., rusty fencing and a
misplaced and oversize utility box at Ingleside branch), the Library
Citizens Advisory Committee asks the Board of Supervisors to urge SFPL
to undertake ongoing and post-construction performance reviews of BLIP
projects..
