Accepting a tax increase and future impacts of not doing so were major concerns voiced by community members Thursday evening during the Community Library Network’s budget hearing at the Post Falls Library.
Nearly all of the 16 people who spoke during the hearing expressed they are in favor of the board taking a 3% tax increase as allowed by law, which would provide the network with nearly $150,000. Many also shared their desire to keep the Post Falls and Hayden libraries open Sundays.
