SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The McCall Public Library is seeking approval to submit a grant application to the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation in an amount not to exceed $250,000 to support the upcoming library
expansion project. The total project cost to expand the library to a 12,000 sq. ft. facility was estimated by Humphries Poli Architects in 2016 to be approximately $5.6 million, the
cost of which the City and Library Board have agreed to jointly fund. In 2017, the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation granted the City $50,000 for planning the library expansion, which
was used to kick start the campaign and leverage other contributions. The current 2019 application will be for construction costs. There are no matching funds requirements with this
grant opportunity.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of a Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation grant application and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
