Summary

Council established a new Library Special Projects Fund (No. 134) to receive approximately $82,000 from the dissolving Library Foundation and approved a supplemental budget to track the funds and future gifts or small grants.

City manager Spence told the council the Library Foundation is dissolving and requested a dedicated fund to accept about $80,000 in remaining donations. Staff recommended creating Library Special Projects Fund No. 134 and adoping a supplemental budget of $82,000 to account for the incoming funds and make the money available for library special projects and future gifts.

Councilor Davis moved to create Fund 134 and adopt the supplemental budget; the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. Spence noted the separate fund will also be useful to track small grants and future donations earmarked for library projects.
