Plan of Service (Ms. Urell) <br />Ms. Urell noted that while the trustees discussed the plan of service at the last <br />meeting, there was no official vote regarding the plan which will go on file with the <br />Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners. <br />Motion to accept the plan of service as presented (Alice Collins / Andrew <br />Grimes) <br />Vote: Unanimous <br />IV. Budget Review <br />Ms. Yablonsky reviewed the upcoming meetings and the current status of the budget <br />as reported by the Town Manager in December. The Town Manager, Mr. LeLacheur <br />indicated that there would be significant town wide budget cuts in FY 2017 and <br />therefore none of the library's budget increase requests would be recommended. In <br />view of this, Ms. Urell asked for advice from Board of Selectmen member Mr. Barry <br />Berman who recommended submitting a 3 or 5 year plan outlining the projected <br />needed budget increase requests that are a direct result of the recent strategic <br />planning and new library building. <br />Ms. Urell presented a draft three year plan to the Trustees. In summary, year one <br />(FY 2017) includes request for the Digital Services Manager, a change in grade for <br />librarians (Grade E to Grade F), an increase in substitute coverage, and a 15% book <br />Page I 1 <br />
