Patty Pjerrou - Paynter, 920 Dune St. asked Council to respond to her previous questions. City Manager Art Jones presented some information, not for Council action, but information only. He stated that the 1 million dollars previously allocated for the library project is still in the Capital Improvement Budget and is still allocated to that project. The bond issue would have been a supplement to that allocation. The City has looked at a number of ways to potentially fund the library. The first idea would be a sale and lease back of the Senior Housing Project. The City could sell that project for 4 -5 million dollars and lease it back for operations; then having the money "in hand" to use for other capital projects. Another alternative would be to use the payback funds from the Senior Housing Project to fund the issuance of some type of debt instrument such as certificates of participation. A third method would be to fund the library out of the capital improvement money that is being collected from the $20 per capital business registration tax. The funding discussed was proposed for the 1988 -89 fiscal year. 2. Dennis Martin, 722 Indiana Court encouraged Council to consider the Library issue as an agenda item for the next Council Meeting.

Dennis Martin, 722 Indiana Court encouraged Council to hold a public hearing on the library issue before the Capital Improvement budget is adopted. 8. Gary Shultz, 217 E. Oak expressed concern over businesses being taxed but was in favor of the library project. 9. Patty Pjerrou — Paynter, 920 Dune St. stated she would pay fees and taxes if it meant having a new library.
