More from Monday’s council meeting
-Lillian Broadbent criticized the lack of timely information, in the budgeting process. “If the council goes forward” with the 1 percent tax increase, she urged it to “designate what the 1 percent will be for.”
-”We keep hearing at the Library ‘be frugal’ . . . The City should be under the same sort of mandate,” said Crystal Dingler.
-Jim Mitchell, president of the Library Board, said they have received 23librarian applicants for the librarian position, “as near as Ocean Shores, as far away as Indiana, Kentucky, Texas . . .” He said that after the pool is narrowed down to three, “we will do interviews.”
-Council member Peggy Berry is expected to return next week after two months of excused absence.

I can’t understand why anyone who follows the budget process would be asking where the 1% is going to. We know where it is going to – Salaries. All the things they held back last year are due this year. Increases, comp-time, etc. Nothing for the library, so that saves the few thousands thrown there this year. I am sure it has been spoken for multiple times over. I hope they pick a librarian with the most skills and not someone local that happens to be a friend of a friend. Also, being that we are a secular government, it is not someone with particular religious attitudes. That can influence the materials the library orders. Those attitudes are fine at home, but not in our library or government. Every man is a temple unto themselves. That means that they keep it between their God and themselves.
