LIBRARY BOARD
ORDINANCE NO. 2003-10 (2) Powers and Duties. The Library Board shall have the powers and duties set forth in Title 9, Chapter 7, Part 5 of the Utah Code, as amended , including but not limited to, the power to (1) establish policies for collections and information resources that are consistent with State and federal law; and (2) make library rules in a manner consistent with County ordinances, policies, and procedures, which rules shall take effect after approval by the County Legislative Body. In addition to the foregoing powers and duties, the Library Board shall, with the approval of the county Manager and in accordance with County ordinances, policies, and procedures (1) be responsible for the expenditure of the library fund, the construction, lease, or sale of library buildings and land, and the operation and care of the library; and (2) purchase, lease, or sell land, and purchase, lease, construct, or sell buildings, for the benefit of the library.
Is this the actual intent, that the County Council will approve "library rules" but NOT the sale and lease of land and the construction of buildings??? Isn't the purchase of land and construction of buildings a responsibility of the County Council, under UT code sec 17-12 (bonding)?
Why was the requirement to "use as a guideline the Public Library Trustee Handbook (1993), as amended, published by the Utah State Library Division," removed?
