State Bond Commission approves funding plan for new main library

The State Bond Commission has given approval for the Police Jury to borrow up to 1.5 million on the Library’s behalf, for construction of the new main library.  This is NOT a grant: The Library will repay the bonds out of proceeds from its tax revenues.

The Library Board of Control thanks bond counsel Sen. Eric Lafleur, the Evangeline Parish Police Jury, and parish engineer Ronnie Landreneau for all their efforts to make this possible.
