Library reports $255,000 toward mobile library; three grants pending
Staff said the library applied for grants from the Oregon Community Foundation ($40,000 requested), the Ford Family Foundation (about $25,000 estimate), and the Roundhouse Foundation (vehicle upfit funding); combined with $150,000 in city funding and other local contributions, staff estimated roughly $255,000 raised so far toward a target near $320,000.

Sarah told the board the library has applied to multiple funders to support the mobile library and related upfits. She said, "we applied for the Oregon Community Foundation Grama... that was for $40,000," and that a second application to the Ford Family Foundation was for approximately $25,000; the Roundhouse Foundation opportunity could support upfitting a vehicle and the staff expected to request roughly $25,000 for that purpose.
