CO UNCIL COM MUN ICATI O N
D ate: Agenda Item : Subject:
May 3, 2010 9 Ci Englewood Public Library's "20 10 Summer Fo o d
for Fines "
Initiat ed By: I Staff So urce:
Libra,y Department Hank Long, Director of Libra,y Servi ces
CO U N CI L GO A L AND PREVIO US COUNCIL ACTION
The Library has sponsored th is popular program since 1990, and each yea r th e City Counci l has
continuall y voiced it s support. In 2('03, the an nual Food for Fin es program was expanded to twice
a yea r at th e req u es t of the Library Board, and subseq u en tl y ap prove d by City Council, for two
weeks during th e summer as well as two weeks between Th anksg ivin g and Christmas as a way to
mitigate th e increase in Overdue Libra ,y Fin es and as a way to enco urage th e tim ely return of EPL
materia ls so th at th ey can be use d by more people. Th e two weeks of th e Summe r Food fo r Fin es
program covers th e las t week of th e public sc hool year and th e first week of vaca ti ons, a time
during w h ich stud en ts and teach ers are deaning out th eir desks and lockers in prepara tion for the
sum m er break and numerous overdue Libra,y ma terial s are loca ted, whereas the two wee ks of th e
Wint er Food for Fines pro gram traditionally cove rs th e period between th e Thanksgivi n g and
Ch ri stmas ho li da ys. H istorica ll y, eac h of th ese two bia nn ual eve,lls raises an ave rage of $1 ,500 to
$2 ,000 in donated n o n-perishab le food items for th e In terfaith Comm un ity Serv ices food bank.
RECOMMENDED ACTIO N
Th e Lib rary Departmen t re co mmends City Co un cil approve a reso lu tion auth orizin g th e Libra,y
D epartm en t to implement its 20 10 Summ er Food for Fin es program from Monday, May 24 th ro ugh
Sun c1ay, June 6, 20 I 0.
BACK GROU ND, ANA LYS IS, AND ALTE RNAT IVES IDEN TIFIED
Fo r th e pas t 20 yea rs, !h e Engl ewood Publi c Libra,y has provided its "Food for Fin es" progra m as a
w ay for !h ose pa tro ns wi th fines on their overdu e EPL materials to "pa y" th em off through th e
donation of n on-p erishabl e fovd it ms th at are, in turn, foiwarded 10 Int erfaith Community Se rvi ces
for th ir "food bank" dislribution l o finan cia ll y dis,,dva ntag d famili es in th e Englewood ar a.
Fo ll owin g 2003's inc rea se in max imum Overdue Fines from $2 to $5, the Libra,y Board requested
that th e number of food items required to pay off a single Ov rdue charge also b e increase d
beginning w ith !h e 2004 Win ter Food for Fines program, e.g. i t now takes two food it ems to ca nce l
out !h e late cha rges (n ot los t or damaged c harges) on one overdue item. Th ese food items mus t be
prese nt ed l o !he Libra,y Staff at !he Ci rc ul al ion Desk in order for th fin es to b e cleared fr om th e
patro n's comput er record . Thi s program has bee n warml y receive d and supported by th e publi c
• since its in ce p tion, and Libra,y pa l ro ns now look forwa rd to it as a wa y of helping o th ers while
relieving th ei r own financial o b liga ti o ns. Thus, th e p rogram presents a pos itive image of th e Library
and the City and is a "win-win " situati on fo r everyone in volved .
FINAN CIAL IMPACT
Since its in ce pt ion, thi s program has rais ed an es timated $40,500 in d ona ted no n-perish ab le food
i tems to ass ist needy famili es in th e Engl ewood area.
Th e money th at the Libra ry collec ts each mo nth in "late charges " (i.e. char~es on books and o th er
EPL items returned pas t th eir o riginal "du e date" and pa st the 3 day "gra .• ~eri o d") goes to th e
City's Gen eral Fund . Th ese reve nues tradi ti ona ll y drop about 50 % during eac h of the Libra ry's two-
week Food for Fines programs, but the loss is more th an offset by th e "good w ill" this program
generates among Library pa trons and by ge tt ing th e Library materi als back on th e shelves so that
0!hers can use th em.

To all Planning and Zo ning Co mmi ssion members,
I believe approach we are taking regarding the consignment store issue is short sighted ..
"Planning" is the first word in the name of this Commission , which implies we should be look ing to •
the future . Like so many of the recent is sues , we are reacting to a request while trying to minimi,,e the
time frame . The approach chose n is certain ly the easiest, it focu ses on th e problem at hand but ignores
the future .
We have establ ished that buy back, consignment, used and thrift stores are not th e same so why shou ld
we perpetuate this error and continue to keep them lumped together ? They need to be separated , even
if we allow them all in BI district.
The next issue is whether we sho uld allow large footprint "thrift stores" in the BI district When I
look around the Bl distri ct I don't see any available large properties, so allowing th at use in Bl poses
no real threat but.. in my years in Engl ewood thi s BI district has gone through a number of dramat ic
changes . Many of you may remember when the building currently housing Ta ble Steaks was a "thrift
store", and maybe yo u even remerr:tier when it was a discount store and the original home for Ched~r
Auto Parts , but I can remember even before tlmt, when is wns a supermarket. During my years in
Englewood, Kittg Soopcrs bas been in 3 different locations. For many years Walgreen's occupied the
current site of Kaufman Men~ Wear. Before the ill fated Trolley Square that block was home to a
stationary store (now called ollicc supp ly), a hobby shop , a Woolworth's (for the _vounger members, a
"five and dime" or "dime store", similar to a dollar store before inflation), a women's clothing store , a
bank, a departm ent store, and even the original location of Nathan's Funtastic . Also, !he Fire/Police
building that was topped witl1 the griffin you now pass on th e stai rs coming to our study Gessions .
My point? Things change, it would be foolish to expec t the area to remain sta ti c in the fmure . lfwe •
are prepared then a panic mode reaction may be avoided in th e future .
During much of my tenure on the Englewood Urban Renewal Authority , we hav~ been looking for a
development on our "Acowa Property"'. curre ntly the parking lot alo ng the 34 00 block of South
Acoma) that would attract pedestrian traffic to the downtown area . If we can get people out of their
cars, they ca n see what the other downtown businesse s have to offer and hopefully revitalize the area .
"rhrift Stores" frequently occupy forrn ·~r supermarke ts becau se they have large footprints, and large
parking lots . ln fact, the building that currently houses the Goodwill store on Broadway was originally
11 supemmrket . If you watch , you will see the patron s of these sto res almo st alway s arrive in
automob iles whether buying goods or donating them ; tl1e parking lots are well used . With the large
store frontage and parking conveniently located adjacent to the store th ey just don't generate much
pedestrian trallic past neighboring businesses . Just like other "big box " type uses it doe sn't lit th e
down town mod el.
That is the rea son I don't believe tho! large footprint "thriH stor es" are a good fit for our BI di stri ct, and
why I hope yo u will reconsider and at lea st se para te th e uses t~,at we know ~re differen t. Don't make
some future commiss ione rs retrace our footsteps ..
Sincerely
Don Roth •
