Okay. And you'll report back to the Council President or to the body in the course of the budget hearings as to what comes out of that meeting?

Absolutely.

Councilman Nutter

Okay, thank you.

President Street

The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Fernandez.

Councilwoman Fernandez

Yes, Mr. President. My earlier question was, could you supply us with a list of all the branches that have been renovated, then the ones that were originally scheduled or may be scheduled for this year, and then what's up for next year?

Councilwoman Fernandez

And is it correct that they would all be completed by, what is it, FY 2000?

Mr. Kaplan

I believe the original plan was to renovate all of the branches by FY 2000. COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE/BILL 980001, 980002 194 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE/BILL 980001, 980002

Councilwoman Fernandez

Well, I'd like to see that list, please.

Councilwoman Fernandez

Thank you. Because my concern was that if we get backed up next year, then that last year, there could really be a lot of libraries closed, and then we'd really be backed up. You know, we could really get constipated.

President Street

Thank you very much. This Committee stands in recess until Tuesday, February 17, at 9 o'clock a.m. Thank you.
