Muskego City Library Board approves Waukesha County allowable-cost worksheet
Summary
The Muskego City Library Board voted to approve the annual allowable-cost worksheet required by Waukesha County’s library funding process and authorized the board president and director to sign and submit it before the month-end deadline.
The Muskego City Library Board voted April 15 to approve the annual allowable-cost worksheet required by Waukesha County as part of the county’s library funding formula. The board approved the worksheet by voice vote and authorized the board president to sign and the library director to submit the form.
The worksheet uses figures from the library’s annual report and is submitted to Waukesha County to calculate county library funding. Library staff said the numbers on the worksheet are drawn directly from the board-approved annual report. "The due date is at the end of this month," the Library Director said, noting the form must be filed to meet the county budget calendar.
Board members briefly reviewed the worksheet during the meeting packet review and asked no substantive changes. A board member moved to approve the worksheet and a second followed; the motion passed on a voice vote. The director said she and the board president would sign the document after the meeting and file it with the county.
The board did not read a roll-call tally during the voice vote; meeting minutes record the motion as approved. The director and staff emphasized that the worksheet contains routine, previously disclosed figures and that the worksheet’s approval does not change the library’s budget or services.
The approval clears a timing-sensitive administrative step required by the county. The board will consider some other policy items and scheduling matters at its May meeting.
