What’s in it

This bill relates to city library directors and city library policies and initiatives. Under current law, a city council may, on its own motion, or shall, upon receipt of a valid petition, submit a proposal to alter the composition, selection process, or charge of the library board to the voters of the city. The bill strikes this provision and allows a city council to oversee and change the hiring practice for a library director and utilize library tax moneys for library projects and initiatives by ordinance and without a referendum.
