SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL <br /> <br /> 3 <br /> <br />2. Library & Recreation (Pg 11/40): <br />a. #4 – Did we consider adjusting hours, work schedules, to achieve some savings – <br />such as 4, 10-hour days for employees and staggering it with some lesser hour <br />reductions (say open later a Wednesday, or close 30 minutes earlier?) <br />Answer: <br />We considered many scenarios. The flve-day per week, single shift schedule <br />generated the highest cost-savings. <br />b. #4 - What are the most popular days at the library, what days would be closed <br />under this proposal? <br />Answer: <br />The library uses a gate counter called SenSource to count traffic in the library by day <br />of the week and time of day. Below is a heatmap showing the average use between <br />7/1/2024 and 1/22/2025. Dark green is the lowest use (primarily closed hours) and <br />red is the highest use. <br /> <br />Based upon this usage data, staff would recommend a Tuesday-Saturday or <br />Sunday-Thursday schedule. Tuesday-Thursday hours 11 am-7 pm and <br />Friday/Saturday or Sunday/Monday hours 10 am – 6 pm. These schedules <br />attempt to balance morning, evening, and weekend availability.
