Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees of the Sugar Grove Public Library District voted during the regular board meeting on Wednesday, December 14, to place an operating rate increase question on the April 4, 2023, consolidated election for voters in the District. The building bonds that were issued in 2004 and used to construct the current Library at 125 S. Municipal Drive will be paid off in February 2024. The increase will be equivalent to the amount of debt reduction, resulting in a no-net tax increase that will shift funds used for the bond operating funds.
About
The Board of Trustees is composed of seven elected members serving staggering terms in the valuable role of stewardship and governance to the Sugar Grove Public Library District. Key functions of the Board include advocacy, governance, stewardship to the facility, fiscal responsibility, financial security and oversight. Board members serve with no compensation and regularly donate time and attention to serve the needs of patrons.
The Board hires and works in conjunction with the Library Director to serve the needs of Sugar Grove residents. "Our mission is to be a unique resource to offer open access to information that fosters a passion for reading, learning, and the exchange of ideas. As the heart of our community, we support democracy, citizenship, and the cultural growth of the Sugar Grove Public Library District."
The Board graciously welcomes visitors to public meetings held every fourth Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in the general Board room. Agendas and minutes are posted to the website, government information bulletin board in the Library or are available in a informational binder that may be freely accessed by the public in the Library.
