| Public Library Taxes: Does a 259 Automatically End a 414? I am seeking information about what happens to pre-existing funding sources when a library holds a successful funding vote. It had been my understanding, in the case of a 259, that the municipal funders were no longer allowed to collect the amount of money that had been used to fund the library. Is this true? The same question about apply to a 414 or a school district public library. Library trustees and directors are interested in this information and so are the voters. The reverse of this is also a question that comes up. After a successful funding vote, can a municipality decide to allocate funds from their budget to go to the library?’ Clarification on these points would be very helpful when working on future votes! |
