Dear Mayor& Commissioners,
This letter is written in support of our request that the City of Brookings proceed with plans to
install an elevator for building accessibility at the Community Cultural Center.
As you are aware, the former Carnegie Library building is city owned and has been used as a
Cultural Center/Art Gallery since vacated by the City Library, on a no-rent basis. The Brookings
Arts Council operates the Center with a budget funded by several sources of income, but does
not have resources to pay for a project of this magnitude. This is perhaps the last city-owned
building that is not accessible, and it is commendable that the City of Brookings is leading the
way in this manner. We currently have several regular visitors, or family members of patrons,
who cannot gain access right now without special assistance,or at all. We also serve a number
of older citizens who might find an elevator useful if available. Since the original deadline for
compliance is past,there is always the possibility that a complaint could be filed.
We have seriously considered and even used alternate sites for classes when a special needs
person enrolls,but that is not a realistic long term solution, and does not provide access for
gallery shows and special events at the Center. The building is structurally sound,has been
maintained well by the Arts Council, and we think has a long and useful life ahead. In addition,
it is attractive in a historic way and is well suited to our use.
The building overall is 1780 S.F. with two levels,totaling 3560 S.F. On the main floor 1400 S.F.
are gallery with 265 S.F. of office space; the basement has 1200 S.F. of classroom,with the rest
in storage, utility room and furnace room. Using a conservative figure of$80 per S.F.,
replacement cost would be at least$285,000. We feel an expenditure of azound $35,000 is a
good investment to insure that this historic building continues to be available for public use.
It could be quite difficult to find private donations to fund a project of this type. However,we
aze willing to actively pursue several possibilities with foundation and grants in the immediate
future,while more detailed construction plans and cost estimates are being prepared,with the
understanding that we might still have to ultimately ask for all or a portion of the funding. If you
should feel comfortable with committing city funds at this time,that, of course,would be
fantastic and we could move forward more quickly.

What is important is that we have support and consensus in proceeding with a definite timetable
in mind. Knowing that elevator and lift companies are currently operating on a 24-28 week
delivery schedule, July lst of 1996 might be the earliest reasonable date.
Members of the Arts Council Board of Directors will attend your meeting on Tuesday night to
answer any questions you may have.
