#1 LIBRARY BOARD: Donna Grainger, representing the Library Board.
addressed the Council giving a little background
information on the library as well as bring them up to date on statistical
information - 3295 cards have been issued and they have 14,296 books on
hand. She explained they have received grant monies from the Dobie, Halsell
and Brown Foundations as well as many private donations. They are now
ready to start building a new 6,000 sq. ft. library building. They had re-
ceived a cost estimate of $125,000; however, have agreed to go at it piece-
meal and hope to get the foundation built with a shell for approximately
$48,000. They now have $12,019 of non-public funds and ask Council to
advance the additional required to put in the $18,000 foundation, with
much of the material being acquired at cost or below. They also have about
$16,450 in County Revenue Sharing and budget money but this can only be
expended if they would go out for bids, which they plan to do on the shell
of the building itself. Mrs. Grainger also ask the Council to make the
library a loan of the $485000 for the shell and if they would sell the
building the library is now in and use that money toward the building fund
of the library.
Mr. Sawyer explained the reason they want to go with this particular con-
tractor for the slab (rather than going out for bids) is that he is agreeable
to using donated materials and labor.
