Advisory bodies play an important role in City governance by assisting the City Council in addressing specific issues in detail and facilitating community decision-making. The City of Cupertino has a number of advisory bodies, each with distinct responsibilities. As a new advisory body member, you should familiarize yourself with the documents governing your particular body including City ordinances, City Council resolutions, relevant element(s) of the General Plan, and other documents, all available from your staff liaison. Reviewing these documents will help you get a sense of your responsibilities. This Handbook is designed to serve as a reference for the basic protocols that apply generally to all City advisory bodies.Orientation is necessarily an active process.As a new member you may want to meet with the Chair of your advisory body to get a better sense of your role and the business of the body, as well as with the staff liaison assigned to the body. Along with familiarizing yourself with your advisory body's foundational documents, you may want to review agendas and minutes from recent meetings to see what current issues have been under consideration, as well as the City Work Program to familiarize yourself with current goals. Learning your role and developing an effective voice takes time and familiarity. We hope this Handbook will assist you towards a satisfying and productive experience. Your participation is deeply appreciated by the City Council, by city staff, and by your community. The vitality and strength of our community results from the willingness of people like you to serve.

FORM OF GOVERNMENT The City of Cupertino operates as a general law city with a City Council-City Manager form of government where the City Council sets policy and the City Manager manages the implementation and administration of those policies. B. CITY COUNCIL The City Council is the governing legislative body of the City, consisting of five members elected in odd numbered years to staggered four-year terms.These councilmembers then elect the mayor and vice mayor to one-year terms. It sets goals and priorities and establishes policies. The Mayor is the presiding officer of the Council, and the official spokesperson and representative of the City. C. CITY MANAGER AND STAFF Ci , Manager The City Manager has complete responsibility and authority for the administration of the City's government. This individual is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the Council and is the appointing authority for the City, selecting the department heads and other employees.The City Manager coordinates and directs the services of the City staff, and commissioners should not attempt to direct or prioritize work for departments or individual staff. Ci Clerk The City Clerk plays an important role for advisory bodies. The City Clerk accepts and maintains applications,processes appointments,updates membership rosters, bylaws, informational booklets, and yearly attendance records. The City Clerk is the filing officer for Statements of Economic Interests,and any other required filing as identified by the City Council and the State. Staff When assigned by the City Manager, staff assist and act in a technical advisory capacity to the commissions. It is not expected that every staff recommendation will be followed; however, because of the staff's technical knowledge, full consideration should be given to their recommendation.Staff are at liberty to make their recommendation to the City Council through the City Manager,even though the commission may have taken a different position. However, in these cases, the commission recommendation will be made clear to the City Council. Staff Liaison A staff liaison is assigned to each commission. Their main duties include facilitating meetings, preparing agendas, advising commissioners, and writing 4 meeting minutes. Commissioners should reach out to their liaison if they have any questions regarding matters of the commission or if they would like to contact other staff regarding official business. D. COMMISSIONS The primary purpose of the City's commissions is to serve as advisory bodies to Council by weighing public input and rendering recommendations to the City Council. There are times when the advisory body's recommendation will not be sustained or will be modified by the City Council.It is important to recognize this not as a rejection of the integrity of the recommendation,but as an inevitable part of the process of community decision-making. The Council has appointed commissioners as advisors to them. This underlying philosophy makes it improper for an individual commissioner, acting in their official capacity, to try to persuade the Council into the acceptance of a recommendation other than that voted by the majority of the commission.The role of a commission is to assist the City Council in the formation of policy, having been created for the purpose of advising. The scope of work, purpose, and other primary functions for each commission can be found in the City Municipal Code Chapter 2. Chair and Vice Chair Each year,every commission will elect from its membership a Chairperson (Chair) and a vice Chairperson(Vice Chair) who serve at the pleasure of the commission for a one-year term. The Vice Chair acts in this capacity when the Chair is not available. The Chair should: • Maintain order of the meeting, ensure respect for all opinions, protect commissioners,staff, and the public from personal attacks. • Keep discussion focused on the issue at hand. • Solicit opinions from commissioners.Encourage evaluation of new,tentative, or incomplete ideas. Discourage overly dominant commissioners from having disproportionate control over the discussion. • Attempt to reach decisions expeditiously on action items. At those times when action would be premature, guide discussion toward a timeline or framework for responsible action. • Set meeting rules early and make sure everyone abides by them without exception. • Set an acceptable time limit for public testimony(generally three minutes per individual and 10 minutes per group)and stick to it.At the Chair's discretion, the public can interact with the members of the commission beyond the public-comment time limit in order to facilitate better communication of the agendized topic. • Provide periodic written updates, approved by the full body, to Council regarding the status of their activities at least every six months. 5 COMMISSION MEMBERSHIP A. QUORUM AND ATTENDANCE A quorum consists of a majority of the members of the commission. A quorum is required to conduct business at any meeting whether it is a regular, adjourned, or special meeting. While it is expected that members be present at all meetings, the Chair should be notified if a member knows in advance that he/she will be absent. A member shall be considered removed from an advisory body under the following conditions: • A member misses more than three consecutive meetings • A member misses more than 25% of the advisory body's meetings in a calendar year(Resolution 10-048) B. VACANCIES Vacancies are filled by appointment by the Council.Appointments made in the middle of a term are for the unexpired portion of that term. Council-appointed Alternates will automatically fill a vacancy. C. RESIGNATIONS AND REMOVALS If a member is unable to continue serving because of health, business requirements or personal reasons, a letter of resignation should be submitted to the City Council. The position of any member is automatically vacated when the member ceases to meet the qualifications for office, when Council accepts the member's resignation, or when the Council so declares. MEETINGS A. REGULAR MEETINGS Commissions are required to hold regular meetings open to the public as provided by the enabling ordinance. The agenda for this meeting must be posted at least 72 hours prior to the meeting. B. ADJOURNED MEETINGS If the business to be considered at a regular meeting cannot be completed,the commission then may designate a time and date for an adjourned meeting. 6 C. SPECIAL MEETINGS A special meeting may be called by the Chair or a majority of the members with coordination with the staff liaison. D. SUBCOMMITTEES The Chair may appoint special subcommittees of less than a quorum of the commission who then may meet at their convenience to carry out the purpose of the subcommittee. If the subcommittee has a continuing subject matter or a regularly scheduled meeting time, it may qualify as a Brown Act committee and public notice provisions will apply. E. AGENDAS Each commission has a staff liaison responsible for preparing agendas in consultation with the Chair. If a commissioner or staff member intends to bring up an item for discussion or action, the item must be included on the agenda in accordance with the Brown Act.For each meeting,a date should be scheduled for the Chair and staff liaison to set the agenda. Commissioners can propose agenda items within the purpose of the commission to the staff liaison prior to the agenda setting date. Future Agenda Setting The staff liaison will maintain a list of future agenda items that the commission plans to discuss.The Chair,the staff liaison, or any two commissioners can add an agenda item within their purpose to the future agenda item list and it will be scheduled at the discretion of the Chair and staff liaison. To provide commissioners an opportunity to discuss whether to add an item to the future agenda item list, each regularly-scheduled agenda will include a "Future Agenda Setting" item. Once an item is added to the future agenda item list, it cannot be removed until it is discussed for removal at a regularly scheduled meeting during the item for"Future Agenda Setting." In addition, the item will not be removed if the Chair or at least two commissioners wish for the item to remain on the future agenda item list. Staff Updates and Commissioner Activity Report Each regularly scheduled agenda will also include a "Staff Updates and Commissioner Activity Report" item for staff to report on updates and the members to report any activities they have taken part in related to the commission since the prior regularly scheduled meeting. F. PREPARATION FOR MEETINGS • Thoroughly review the agenda packet, including agenda reports,and any other materials before the meeting. Check if you may have a conflict of interest with any of the items due to property or monetary interests.If it is unclear,the commissioner 7 can explain the situation to the staff liaison who can seek legal counsel from the City Attorney.For more information on conflicts of interest,please review the Fair Political Practices Commission(FPPQ Conflicts of Interest Rules. • Understand what action you are being called upon to take for each particular agenda item. • Contact the Chair or your staff liaison before the meeting to clarify questions about the agenda or request further information. • Understand the responsibilities of your commission. As a member of an advisory body you will be asked to provide recommendations to the City Council about specific issues. Keep in mind that your appointment does not empower you to supervise or direct City staff. G. MINUTES The approved minutes are placed on file by the City Clerk for public access. Commissions should strive to keep summary minutes as opposed to action minutes. If automatic transcription is made available to supplement official minutes, action minutes may be sufficient. H. PROCEDURE Commissions follow the guidelines on parliamentary procedure contained in Rosenberg's Rules of Order (Rules). These Rules outline how motions are made and the basic format for an agenda item discussion. I. DECORUM AT MEETINGS • Discourage outward signs of agreement or disagreement from the audience such as cheering or clapping. Such demonstrations can intimidate those wishing to express alternate views and delay the meeting. Also see Conduct of Members in the Cupertino Ethics Policy. • Limit your own comments to the issues before the commission. Avoid the appearance of straying from the subject or"grandstanding". J. BASIS FOR YOUR DECISION Commission decisions should be based principally on the information presented to you in the open public meeting process. If you collect pertinent information outside of the public process through a meeting with stake holders or site visits,you should share that information with your fellow commissioners in the public meeting.This sharing of information will ensure that other commissioners and members of the public have a better understanding of the rationale for your decision. Commissioners are free to meet or refuse to meet with residents, resident groups, 8 developers or prospective contractors or any persons outside of the public meeting process concerning issues before the commission. If you meet with any individuals outside of the public meeting you should disclose the content of that meeting in the public meeting to again ensure that everybody is aware of the facts and have similar information upon which to base their decision;this disclosure is required for quasi- judicial matters'. All governmental procedures and process must follow due process and allow an affected party a right to be heard, and to present controverting fact or testimony on the question of right in the matter involved.Unfair determinations, such as bias, predetermination, refusal to hear, etc.,may invalidate actions. Keep an open mind. An objective,balanced, and receptive approach will help you assess the facets of a given issue and evaluate new ideas.When receiving written and oral public testimony it will be necessary to discern between fact and opinion, as well as between those concerns which are relevant and those which are secondary to the issue at hand. Keeping an open mind will make it easier for you to understand all sides of an issue before you make a judgment or take a position. CITY WORK PROGRAM The City Council approves an annual City Work Program to guide the work of the City. Prior to the first draft of the City Work Program each year, staff will reach out to the commissions to ask for recommendations of items to add. These recommendations will be provided to the City Council for consideration,but ultimately the City Council will determine the final items on the City Work Program. Commissions support City Work Program items within their scope by reviewing the items and making recommendations to City Council. Since the City Council sets the City Work Program to guide the priority efforts in the City, commission agendas should be aligned accordingly.By August 15, each commission should provide an annual report of all of the topics the commission has addressed in the prior year. COMMUNICATIONS A. STAYING INFORMED Commissioners should sign up for City email notifications to stay informed of various community events and public meetings. Council encourages commissioners to attend at least two community meetings or meetings of other commissions each year. The City uses social media outlets, surveys, email notifications, the Scene, and the City website to perform outreach for City business. For appropriate conduct on social media, 'More information on quasi-judicial proceedings can be found in the Imposed Restraints document in the Commission Resources folder. 9 see the City's Social Media Policv. For questions about City outreach, speak with your staff liaison. B. USE OF CITY EMAIL All newly appointed City commissioners will be assigned a mandatory City email address after reviewing and signing the Technology Use Policy. As noted under the Brown Act, care should be taken with regard to emails. Never select "Reply All" to an email to all commissioners or forward an email sent to you by one commissioner to another commissioner since that would constitute a quorum. All questions and concerns should be directed to the Chair and staff liaison. All City emails are subject to the Public Records Act and you should use your City email only to conduct City business as a commissioner.Please do not forward or reply to a City email from your personal email address.Once your term on the commission is over,your City email will be terminated. RESOURCES Commissioners should familiarize themselves with the following resources: City policies relating to ethics, social media, commissions, diversity, and technology, as well as the City organizational chart, a Rosenberg's Rules of Order cheat sheet, and guidance on imposed restraints, can be found online in the Commission Resources folder.

Commissioner Crabtree suggested to align the Library Commission municipal code more closely with the Library Expansion Project, and noted that there is a stakeholder group to provide input on the project,but that the Commission as a whole should be a part of the stakeholder group if adhering to the municipal code.

The survey also assessed overall satisfaction with library services and sought recommendations for improving facilities, the timing of programs and services, collections and library access. This report highlights key findings from the survey, which was available in paper and online format from May 20 through June 16, 2019. This survey was a follow-up from the 2016 Patron Satisfaction Survey. Where applicable, the report highlights areas of progress from 2016 to 2019. The last page provides recommendations based on survey findings. Highlights from the Report Patrons were overwhelmingly satisfied with library services and their interaction with library staff. Nearly all patrons (97%) reported that Reference Desk Staff and Accounts Desk Staff were friendly and approachable, and 85% of indicated they were highly likely to recommend the library to friends and family. The majority of patrons visit the library for youth programs and services.Three out of four patrons(75%) ranked programs and services for youth as one of their top three most important reasons for visiting the library. 0 A majority of patrons are satisfied with the library's current operating hours. In response to the findings from the 2016 Patron Satisfaction Survey,SCCLD underwent a major initiative to increase operating hours across community libraries. In 2019,over half of patrons(57%) were satisfied with the library's hours. The 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey Report incorporates the feedback of nearly 7,000 patrons.The survey was available to patrons in five languages (English, Spanish,Simplified Chinese,Traditional Chinese, and Vietnamese). Significant efforts on the part of library staff nearly doubled the number of total surveys collected between 2016 and 2019 , and there was a 7% increase in responses from patrons whose primary language was not English. santa Clara count l i b ra rydistrict h a rd e r g co community research Key Findings from the 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey I Page 2 Respondent Characteristics A total of 6,796 individuals completed the Patron Satisfaction Survey. Nearly all respondents (97%) reported having used the library in the last year; the remaining 3% were identified as"non-patrons" (i.e., those who had not used the library in the last year).

Key Findings from the 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey I Page 7 Referrals and Services that Can Help Patrons or Someone They Know (n=4,906) Before releasing the 2019 survey, the evaluation team conducted two focus groups with 20 library patrons to learn about suggested topics for further exploration. Patrons identified that libraries often provide information about connecting to other important services. When survey respondents were asked which referrals or connections would be helpful to them or someone they know, the most popular responses were information about employment (57%) taxes (49%) and social service (49%). One fifth of respondents provided other ideas such as educational programs, contractors, and social gatherings (see "other"description below).

Alternate Library Access (n=4,705) Respondents were asked when they would like the library to offer alternative access through Key Card Access and Self- service Time. Most patrons were content with current operating hours (55-57%). The second most popular option for alternate access was tied at weekday evenings (32% for self-service and 33% for key card access) and weekend evenings (32% for both self-service and key card access). ■Key Car Access (n=4,702) Self-service Time (n=4,718) 57% 55% 32% 33% 32% 32% 25% 24% 20% 20% 20% 19% 9% 8% Weekday Weekday Weekday Weekend Weekend Weekend Content with mornings afternoons evenings mornings afternoons evenings current operating hours Key Findings from the 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey I Page 9 Collections Materials are in good condition With respect to the condition of library Percentages indicate participants who selected "Most of the time" collections, respondents indicated the highest or"Always or almost always ." levels of satisfaction with books and periodicals, and slightly lower levels of satisfaction with Books (n=5,421) DVDs.

Patrons expressed limited availability of digital material in alternative languages. In addition to the languages in which the survey was implemented (English, Spanish, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, and Vietnamese), French, Hindi, and Japanese which were the highest"other" responses for preferred language of materials. Facilities • Explore opportunities to enhance seating. While there are limitations on the changes SCCLD can make to libraries' physical structures, SCCLD has been systematically looking for opportunities to enhance seating. Data from this survey suggests that SCCLD should continue to explore this opportunity. • Consider adding on property curb-side drop-off points for patrons to make returns.These may be particularly beneficial for community libraries with limited parking. Explore strategies to make targeted improvements to its programs and services Programming • Ensure sufficient youth programming and cross check report results with preferred times by community library location. SCCLD could also examine the timing and frequency of program offerings, since this year's survey included additional questions about the preferred timing and frequency of services for patrons'favorite programs. • Consider other methods for advertising adult programming and technology classes. Adult programming (ages 18-64) and technology classes were also in high demand. SCCLD could consider advertising using the methods patrons identified as being effective including identifying high traffic public space outside the library for flyering, exploring ways to better utilize social media, and ensuring event postings are easily accessible via the website. Services • Explore way to help patrons with service connections and learning. Focus groups with library patrons revealed that libraries often connect individuals with social services, and the survey revealed that help around ESL and tax needs are valued by patrons. We recommend that SCCLD pursue community partnerships for libraries to provide additional information on employment, taxes, social services, and immigration resources. Easily accessible and well- promoted resources could assist community members in need of these vital services. Key Findings from the 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey I Page 13 • Consider analyzing card holder data to better understand the SCCLD patron base. Of the patrons who responded to the 2019 Patron Satisfaction Survey, 9% identified as Hispanic or Latino, and 1% identified as Black or African American, American Indian or Alaskan Native, or Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander. According to the U.S. Census ii statistics for Santa Clara County, 25% of residents identify as Hispanic or Latino, 3% identify as Black or African American, and about 1% as American Indian or Alaskan Native, or Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander. Since county statistics do not align perfectly with library district demographics, SCCLD could consider analyzing card holder zip code data to construct the appropriate demographic comparison by patron census tract. Having a better sense of target patron demographics will help to make outreach, collections, programs, and services culturally relevant and to meet the needs of the diverse population of patrons. Explore strategies to expand already-successful practices Policy • Continue to invest in services and strategies that work well. In particular, one of the major takeaways from the survey was that patrons greatly appreciate the friendly and approachable staff services, with between 97-98% reporting this to be the case for both accounts staff and reference staff. We recommend additional research to identify exactly what staff are doing that patrons appreciate. This would allow SCCLD to identify and distill their unique staff services. Additionally, while appointment-based reference help is not in high demand, if you are considering pursuing this service, it will require much publicity and a strong roll-out, since most patrons are ambivalent about the option. Finally, it's good news that library fines and late fees do not seem to be a great deterrent for those who took the survey. Depending on the costs of changes to fine systems, weigh this evidence along with existing studies of fines' disproportionate impacts. Staff Support • Continue to foster a culture that supports library staff and ensures that patrons as well as the broader community, are aware of the library's excellent customer service. SCCLD might consider incorporating graphic messaging into library environments to showcase their strong patron services. Excellent staff services create a warm, social ambience. The district staff should also continue reaching outside of the library to further promote the excellent features of the library that are greatly appreciated by patrons and keep people coming back! ii.
