TIPS
This section is not hard, but we do have some libraries occasionally forget to answer their ballot information.
1.46 Library Budget Subject to Vote (Calendar Year 2023) If you went out on the school or municipal ballot this past year (even if you were unsuccessful), you will have some additional questions to answer. Please refer to our School Ballot Results spreadsheet, and choose the appropriate year at the bottom for last year's information. The regular school ballot date was May 16th, 2023.
1.47 Library Budget Subject to Vote (prior year) - Answer this If you've received ballot money in the past, but did NOT go out in the previous year. If you have questions about this, your report from last year can usually help you answer the related questions. Please make sure it reflects any new ballot funding from the prior year (answered in last year's 1.46 or 1.47)
1.48 Contractual Agreement - Does the library have a contractual agreement ... to provide library services to an area not served by a chartered library? The vast majority of libraries will answer no to this. However, looking at your answer from last year may help you confirm that if needed.
1.49 Report of Unusual Circumstances. That could include heavy weeding, closed for construction, a fire, flood, etc.
