Proposed BIG changes to borrowing, reference, eligibility, rules of conduct, and internet access policies (UPDATED)

Submitted by vicki.thompson on Wed, 11/23/2016 - 15:45

UPDATE: We have attached a document that describes in more detail some of the changes proposed by the Borrowing Committee.

Happy Thanksgiving Week! We are proposing some pretty big changes to a few public services policies, especially AM 100 Borrowing. Please read the attached policies and share what you think would positively or negatively impact your ability to provide excellent customer service in your job. The first page is a briefing sheet the describes the major changes to each policy. Some of these changes are significant and we really want to know what staff thinks will and won't work.

We expect to take these policies to the commission's Public Services committee on December 15 or sometime in January. It will go to the commission on January 19 or February 16.

Below are the policy leads for each of the policies reviewed:

Borrowing: Meghan Attalla

Internet Access: David Newyear
Reference: Erin Bedford
Rules of conduct: Tracy Simpson
