Library Advisory Board - 3 December 2025

The City of Sandy Oregon's Library Advisory Board met on December 3, 2025, though without a quorum, limiting formal voting. Key discussions included the nomination process for new board leadership and the appointment of a new board member, Arin McCarthy, pending city council approval. The board reviewed recommendations from the library district task force concerning amendments to the intergovernmental agreement to clarify fund usage for capital expenses and the initiation of a strategic framework for the district's future, including potential consultant engagement for economic feasibility studies. Fundraising efforts for the mobile library were highlighted, with over $62,000 raised through grants, donations, and events like bingo. Plans for future fundraising events, such as a casino night and spring bingo, were also discussed to support ongoing library initiatives.
