To call for a referendum to set up a special taxing <br />district. <br />2. If this fails, that we ask the County Commission to <br />set up a taxing district under County home rule <br />ordinance. <br />a <br />The Board has considered a number of alternatives for financial <br />support, and feels that although it would be desirable to continue <br />on a private basis, this is no longer possible. Transfer enabling <br />access to a county -wide tax base as recommended in two independent <br />studies (County Ad Hoc Committee, 1980: Florida State Library 1981) <br />should provide the best solution to present and future library <br />needs. <br />I urge you to be present to cast your vote on this issue - the most <br />important since the Library's founding by the Woman's Club 65 years <br />ago. <br />Yours 1 11 k <br />E. dler, President <br />Ind River County Library <br />Association <br />
