Summary

Library staff described a largely cut-and-dry budget using a historical 3% levy approach and reported a Sanchez Roofing estimate of roughly $65,000 for needed roof work, with staff recommending completion before winter.

Rob presented the library budget using a historical 3% increase applied to dollars levied rather than a fixed mill allocation; he showed the library’s assessed mills could move from about 4.87 to 4.77 under that approach and noted county contributions remain uncertain. Library representative Shauna said state grants are variable and that past year receipts differed substantially.

Shauna told commissioners she has obtained one roofing quote from Sanchez Roofing of around $65,000 for labor and materials and urged doing the work before winter because of a prior temporary patch and an area that was leaking. “He does recommend for it to be done before winter,” Shauna said; commissioners asked about timing and funding options and deferred final scheduling to later budget meetings.
