| A | 73. | Support for Libraries in Racine County from City of Racine | Resolution | Support for Libraries in Racine County from City of Racine
Whereas, the State of Wisconsin requires public libraries to serve all residents of the state at the same level of service they serve their own residents (except Milwaukee County); and
Whereas, Racine County has agreed to reimburse municipalities with libraries for serving Racine County residents; and
Whereas, the municipalities with libraries provide this service to county residents with the understanding that they will be reimbursed by Racine County; and
Whereas, Racine County had been moving on a progressive track to reach 100% reimbursement over the past ten years or so; and
Whereas, a reduction in the mil rate by Racine County for past service would create undo financial hardship that shifts this burden to the residents of the local municipality.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the City of Racine, in Racine County, requests 100 % reimbursement for library service provided to county residents.
