Library board shifts contingency, approves transformer pad and mural spending

The Ripon Library Board voted to transfer money into a contingency line and to pay for a new concrete pad required for a transformer installation, the board’s director said. "We have officially heard word that that will be June 8 for the transformer installation and electrical service cutover," Library Director Nizzie Bell told the board, and Allied (the electrical contractor) concluded a new transformer and special reinforced pad are required.
