From the meeting
At its September 23, 2026 special meeting, the Board approved relinquishing unspent SAM Grant 15600 Funds (2018) to RCLS. Beth said the unused funds had raised red flags with the State, and giving them back would open other funding opportunities. This is not a purchase, but it is a grant-program move that can change what library projects get funded next.
