Shelter-in-Place Day 36

On the coronavirus front, here's the latest news that I think is worth noting:

  • cats have tested positive for the virus. 😿
  • the city of Santa Rosa expects a $20 million shortfall from decreased sales, hotel tax, and permit revenues. Next year, they expect property tax revenue to decline as well. 
  • the county has put up signs regarding travel so that people can't claim ignorance if stopped by authorities.

The loss of tax revenue will impact the library considerably, although I missed the budget meeting that discussed possible changes that will result. The Union and Administration are in conversation about payroll changes. I've not been as involved as conscious dictates I should be. So that will likely change now. At the very least, I can show up and be informed.
