Mr. Bucove informed the board there will be one million dollars of federal funds available as L.S.C.A., Title II. This fund is for new projects not already in progress. This is to generate new jobs within the state. It was stated at the ILA Conference that remodeling is a good way to use the L.S.C.A. Funds. Mr. Bucove was told that acquisition of properties, the property value, not the cost of acquiring the property may be used as the match with the L.S.C.A. Fund.

Mr. Bucove would like to apply for the full one million dollars but take $340,000.00 for the auto center building remodeling as a separate project.

The lease on the annex at 815 Jackson Street expires 5/30/83. Right now the lease is on a month to month extension. Mr. Munson has stated if the library is going to be in the annex very long, he would like to have a new one year lease. Hopefully a year will not be needed.
