Budget Adjustment – FY 2015-2016. The director has made a request to the county
Administrator that a special sub-account to line item 3000 (Professional Services) be
established within the Library’s current budget for the purpose of administering a
Grant of $5000 to Coalition4Kids.

The grant was initially to be fulfilled prior to the end of the current fiscal year, but the
Program, Mariner Youth Leadership Program, will run until the end of December, 2016.
