Resident proposes little library at Old Theater Park; council asks city to check insurance liability
Summary
Ashley Kelley asked the Woodbine City Council for permission to install a little library at Old Theater Park; council members expressed support but directed City Administrator Samantha Young to contact the city's insurance carrier and return with more information before taking action.
During the April 7 Woodbine City Council meeting, Ashley Kelley presented a request to install a little library (a small free book exchange) at Old Theater Park. Council members said they thought it was a good idea but requested additional information before approving the project.
Council feedback focused on potential liability and coverage. The council directed City Administrator Samantha Young to contact the city's insurance carrier to determine whether the city would face any liability for allowing a little library on city property. No formal vote was taken on the proposal during the meeting.
Next steps: staff were asked to report back with the insurance carrier's guidance and any other needed details so the council can consider a decision at a future meeting.
