Countywide Library Ballot Measure - Manager announced that the County Commissioners "this lOOrning" adopted a proposal very similar to the one suggested by the City's legal office. The only addition requested by the County is that the ballot measure state that "all county library tax lOOnies collected in a city receiving library services from a public library district be refunded to said public library district, and that the lOOnies so refunded be used excl usi vely for public library services." Manager said that Council should now study the potential contractual relations and how the Eugene Library would be invol ved in the process. The subcommi ttee which had been appointed at the March 10 Committee meeting to study the original county proposal agreed that contractual relations and the role any city 7 library would play would be studied and recommendations made. The County requests continuation of the study with the hope that details worked out might enable the City of Eugene to take a firm position. -4It Mr. Murray, as a matter of clarification, was assured that supporting the ballot proposal does not commit participation of the Eugene Library and that 4/12/76 - 32 ~9~.
