Library Commission approves minutes and accepts $35,000 Hays County contract
Summary
The Buda Library Commission approved earlier minutes and agreed to accept an annual $35,000 contract from Hays County to support library services; the commission chair and director said the contract will go to City Council for final approval Nov. 5.
The Buda Public Library Commission approved meeting minutes from Aug. 14, 2025, and voted to accept the library’s annual contract with Hays County for $35,000.
Melinda, library director, told the commission the county has provided funds to the Buda Public Library "since the early 1980s" and that the money "is used for general library expenditures." A commission member moved to accept the contract and another seconded the motion; voices of "Aye" carried the motion. Melinda said she will take the agreement to City Council on Wednesday, Nov. 5, for final approval.
Commission discussion noted the contract amount has been steady for several years. The director also explained that because the library is a city department the county funds go into the City of Buda’s general fund and that City of Buda residents retain reciprocal borrowing privileges at the county’s other libraries under this agreement.
