Got this email from the library this morning.
On Tuesday, November 8, Voters in the City of Pittsburgh have the opportunity to vote on a referendum question to support the Library.
If approved by a majority of voters, the measure would provide for a 0.25 mill special tax on all taxable real estate in the City of Pittsburgh to be allocated and used only for the maintenance and operation of Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh.
This is the equivalent of $25 per year or $2.09 per month on $100,000 of assessed value.
If passed, this referendum will help provide Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh with the diverse and sustainable funding it needs to continue to be strong and provide critical services for the community including early learning programs for children and families, job search assistance and computer and Internet access.
