Saint Michael's can fund learning‑center expansion; city to relocate attached services, presenter says

Speaker 5 told the meeting that Saint Michael's leadership has the funds to cover a planned expansion without cost to the city. The presenter said the learning center that currently occupies space attached to Saint Michael’s would not be reduced in services; instead, the center would be relocated to a different community center that better fits identified needs.

Speaker 5 described moving about eight computers to the new location and adjusting staff duties to support the relocated services. He said these changes are focused on maintaining or improving service delivery rather than reducing staff or services.

Speaker 5 also noted a personnel matter connected to council appointment and pay: the appointment and salary for the referenced position (the "13" cited in the transcript) are matters that come through council action and oversight. No formal council vote or final decision about the expansion or relocation was recorded at this meeting; Speaker 5 framed the discussion as informational and clarified that pay and appointment are council responsibilities.
