Mrs. Stonebrook presented each member with copies of the 1988/89 Budget Request; a Position
Request and a copy of the Service Level Information.
POSITION REQUEST: Mrs. Stonebrook explained the position request. It was the hope.. of the Board
that the County will allow our request for this position, as we will need the staff in the new
library. •
SERVICE LEVEL INFORMATION: The Service Level Information sheet was coiled with the high
increases in our services of the last 6 months in mind and with an additional 10'/ increase
expected next year.
1988/89 BUDGET: The Budget figures were discussed line by line. The Salary figures are set
amounts. The increases in scae items was noted due to the increase in the size of the new
library building. Examples of those being electricity, telephone;; janitorial, etc.
Because our Book budget was cut in half and knowing that only a 4/ increase in Supplies and
Expenses was allowed, the board discussed if there was any ways to cut down and keep our budget
for books at the same level it has been. Beoause of the increase in the size of the new
building there was no way to cut back.
It was then discussed as to whether the County would allow us the noney for books — which would
mean a 10'/ increase in the percentage of Supplies and Expenses.
A motion was made by Mrs. Sheridan that the Cape Canaveral Library Board send a letter to Mrs.
Stewert requesting a 10% increase in the Supplies and Expense line—item of the annual budget to be
applied to CODE 660660 — BOOKS, so that last years book standard may be maintained. Second was
made by Mrs. Goff. Motion passed unanimously.
The board commended Mrs. Stonebrook on the job she did in compiling the budget on such short notice.
A motion was made by Mrs. Stenglein that the 1988/89 budget be approved with the provision that the
Supplies & Expense line—item be increased by 10% so that Book standards nay be maintained. Second
was by Mrs. Sheridan. Motion passed unanimously.
