Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 36 subject tags
The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met March 24 and unanimously approved the minutes of the prior meeting and the treasurer’s report, which showed cash reserves at $800,000, up from $550,000 three years ago, with year-to-date revenue of $92,000 and a $27,000 surplus. The board accepted the resignation of a board member, who cited travel demands from a new job, and began the process of interviewing candidates for the seat. A board member was nominated and approved as the new board secretary, with another board member serving as backup. The board also voted to store working documents and committee materials in a shared Google Drive account, with a board member as administrator; official minutes will continue to be archived by the library director. The library director reported that the library has reopened to more visitors, with new back doors installed by the township maintenance authority and a planned repaint near the fireplace. She noted a $300 donation from the Friends group for bilingual materials, a $1,000 grant application to Eaton Corporation, and an expected $800 to $1,000 reimbursement from the second round of the CARES Act. The library will resume accepting book donations in May and hopes to hold a small outdoor summer reading kickoff in June, though indoor programming remains suspended. Only two staff members are fully vaccinated. Committee reports covered the pending 2020 director’s evaluation, a basket raffle fundraiser, and a possible coffee vendor partnership. The building improvement committee is researching how other libraries funded construction and is consulting realtors about facility needs. The community engagement committee will recruit volunteers and rebuild ties with the Friends group and township supervisors. The board formed a strategic planning committee with a board member and the board secretary. The next meeting is set for April 28 at 6:00 pm.The Moon Township Library Board of Trustees met March 24 and unanimously approved the minutes of the prior meeting and the treasurer’s report, which showed cash reserves at $800,000, up from $550,000 three years ago, with year-to-date revenue of $92,000 and a $27,000 surplus.
