Log
- 2026-11-09 - Municipal Caucus - The library's finance director said the funds go to technology, buildings and emergencies, matched to the library's operating funding. A member asked for specifics given that the Five Corners branch closed earlier in the year and has since reopened as a temporary fix, and asked for a city and library conversation on prioritizing building maintenance. Another member noted the aid is a pass-through.
