Board finalizes bylaws and trustee notebooks; trustees to present to City Council
Summary
Trustee notebooks containing the new 2026 strategic plan and updated bylaws were distributed; the board confirmed a presentation to City Council on April 14 to share the strategic plan and supporting staff report. Ordinance '1138' was referenced as driving recent bylaw changes.
Board members reviewed updated trustee notebooks prepared by staff that include the 2026 strategic plan, an annual calendar, a funding summary and the newly revised bylaws. The speaker said the final bylaws were updated in response to recent city action (a March city council ordinance referenced as "1138"). The notebooks also contain a flowchart describing roles between the trustees, the library director and supporting groups, and staff offered to post a digital copy online.
The board confirmed that trustees Keith and Alex will present the trustees’ report and strategic plan to the City Council at a scheduled April presentation. The transcript records that Councilwoman Denise Cyers made a motion (at the council meeting) to allow the trustees to present the bylaws with the staff report; board members said this exception avoided an excessively late presentation time.
No formal city action or additional board votes were taken during this meeting on the bylaws beyond distributing the notebooks; trustees asked staff to provide digital copies and indicated they would review the materials and notify staff of any requested changes.
