Discussion Item:

Child Care Facility: Eudora Tharp, Assistant Deputy Executive Officer/Administrative and Human Resources, briefed the committee on the current negotiations with the Child Care Center provider. The AQMD is proposing that the current AQMD subsidy of land, building and $60,000 annually in direct costs (utilities, phone, janitorial, security, maintenance) be reduced by the $60,000 in direct cost. In exchange for the continued use of AQMD facilities (land and building) the child care center provider is proposing to charge less for AQMD employees and to reserve 25% (18) of the total number of day care spaces for AQMD employees. The one remaining issue to be resolved is the cost of needed repair work on the facility. The contract proposal would be for a period of two years.

Progress Report on Leasing Space at Diamond Bar Facility: Sylvia Oroz, Business Services Manager, provided a detailed presentation updating the Committee on the progress regarding space reconfigurations and the clearing of the ground floor south building; signage and tenant address identification for mail; security; and current parking space limitations and tenant parking issues. Approximately 13,000 sq. ft. on the ground level south building is expected to be available by mid-June 2000.
