THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The board will consider Ordinance 2027-2 to issue about $800,000 in Debt Certificates, Series 2026, to improve the site and alter and repair the district’s library building. This move sets up funding and an installment purchase agreement but does not yet name architects, engineers, or contractors. Facilities, construction, and library-focused vendors can engage early around scope definition for building repairs, site work, and related systems that will be procured once financing is approved.
Stifel Public Finance is involved as a financial advisor; design and construction vendors not yet identified.
