Library's Air Conditioning Needs Repair

Fairhope, Alabama 

 

 

Failed library chiller.

 

CHILLER UNIT  FAILED

One of two chillers for library air conditioning installed in 2008 has failed and will have to be replaced; the other failed and was replaced about 4 years ago. 

Contractors are being asked to submit bids now for the work; the system is designed to work with only one chiller.

Cost for the replacement in 2021 was $80K according to our records ... plus the labor.

The library may have to be closed for a while during the repair. 

 

Both chillers today.

Public needs to know closure schedule.

Hey, this could be a good project to use all the monies donated from outside the community during the "sexually explicit books placed in the youth section saga"!

State funding could be useful .

Follow state regulations and rules then funding will be reinstated from what was said. Maybe Fairhope Times can clear up what's going on now.

Why doesn’t everybody just chill out about the library?

State says individual items in book, library says entire book in context. Not same. With a budget approx $ 1 million and young impressionable children. Not small matter.

State wide standards should not trump local community ones imo ...

Final correction: The library board meets June 16 at 4PM.
