If Superior voters approve either of these ballot measures, Superior will transmit to Louisville by January 31, 2011, and annually thereafter an amount equivalent to the proceeds of a 1.5 mill levy imposed on the total assessed valuation of Superior. If Superior voters approve a tax increase to create their own library, this payment would be prorated to the date that a municipal library is open in Superior. · Access to Library Services. Louisville will provide residents of Superior who have a valid library card the same access to library services as residents of other reciprocal jurisdictions. · Library Board Representation. Louisville will appoint to the Louisville Library Board of Trustees one member nominated by the Town of Superior Board of Trustees. · Use Statistics. Louisville will share the Superior aggregate data regarding library users of the Louisville Library. · Budget Information. The Louisville City Manager will provide the Superior Town Manager a recommendation on the budget for library services and will respond to questions and consider any recommendations the Superior Town Manager has regarding the budget information. · Minimum Service Levels. Louisville will maintain at least the existing library hours and days of operation (52 hours per week and at least 4 hours of service on Sundays). · Termination. Either party may terminate the Agreement, with termination effective at the beginning of any calendar year, provided the party gives written notice at least 180 days in advance of termination. If the ballot measure is rejected by Superior's voters, the Agreement would terminate on December 31,2010. Projected revenue: $103,658 in 2009 and $125,000 in 2010. If Superior voters approve extending library services to cover an equitable share of the cost of library services $240,000 will be received annually beginning in 2011.
