Commission defers decision to move County Archives to library until September
Summary
A resolution to dissolve the Cheatham County Archives as a county department and transfer responsibility to the Cheatham County Public Library was deferred until September after Library Director May Lingner provided background and expressed support for the transfer.
The commission considered a resolution to dissolve the Cheatham County Archives as a distinct county department and to transfer administrative responsibility for the archives to the Cheatham County Public Library. Library Director May Lingner provided background and expressed support for returning the archives to the library's administration, and she said that if the proposal was not approved she would ask the Library Board to request the Archives no longer be housed within the library.
After debate over timing, the commission voted to defer the resolution until September by roll call (9 yes, 3 no). An earlier motion to defer until July failed. The deferral gives staff and library leadership additional time to address operational details.
