Business:
Audit Report: The city's annual audit report was similar to previous years. Appropriate
accommodations will be made. For example, they are still questioning the Uyematsu Fund and
no decision has been made. The worth of the stocks is improving and the consensus is to wait
for clarification from the city.
• Meeting Room Policy Discussion: The compliance of our policy with the Library Bill of
Rights is inconsistent and needs a possible revision. It was decided that the board members
would look at the policy more thoroughly and discuss them again next meeting.
Distribution of Idaho Library Law booklets: These are to be put in our Trustee's notebook,
replacing the old booklet.
Reimbursement of Pead fund: The library owes the Pead fund $389.50. It was moved and
seconded that we retroactively authorize Leppert to transfer Pead money to the Monetary
Investment Fund. The board also recommends that Leppert repay the Pead fund at an
appropriate time. (Manke/Papapietro)
