The council approved Resolution 4-99 on April 7 to provide up to $385,164.86 to the Caldwell Public Library for furnishing and moving costs and to apply money received from Hurricane Ida insurance; the library director said the move is planned for the week of May 4.
The Borough Council on April 7 approved Resolution 4-99 authorizing payment not to exceed $385,164.86 to the Caldwell Public Library to cover furnishing and moving costs and to allocate money received from the Hurricane Ida insurance claim toward that expense.
Robin Rockman, director of the Caldwell Public Library, spoke during public comment to alert residents that the library anticipates moving furnishings and contents the week of May 4 and the following week, and urged patrons to sign up for the library newsletter for exact dates. She also reminded residents that PALs and the REBEL interlibrary systems provide access to other Essex County libraries while Caldwell is temporarily closed.
The payment was handled as part of the council’s consent/resolution process; the transcript does not record further line-item budget detail in the public excerpt.
