“Tell Us What You Think” – Committee to Make Recommendation on Contracting Library Services

Published on Thursday, November 12, 2015 | 1:48 pm
 

Residents of Sierra Madre are invited to join the Library Services Proposal Committee meeting on Tuesday, November 17, 2015 at 6:30 p.m. Members of the Committee are planning to meet for the last time on Tuesday to discuss the options for contracting library services in order to save funding; they will be making formal recommendation to present to City Council on November 24, 2015.

The Committee has held regular meetings since July to evaluate the future of Sierra Madre’s library service contracts vis-à-vis current budgetary restraints. The shift in budgetary spending is a result of the sunsetting of the UUT (User Utility Tax), the final phase of which will go into effect on July 1, 2016. The reduced tax is having a large impact on the City’s General Fund revenue, diminishing the revenue that supports community services such as the library.

The Committee’s goal next Tuesday will be to formulate a recommendation that will be presented to City Council at their next regularly scheduled meeting taking place on November 24th. The Committee will base its recommendation on previous Committee discussions, interviews with potential contractors and input from the public.

The City of Sierra Madre encourages residents to take advantage of this final opportunity share their opinions with the Committee. The Library Services Proposal Committee will meet in City Hall Council Chambers on November 17, 2015 at 6:30 p.m. Please note that this meeting will not be televised.
