After discussion,direction was given by the Library Foundation Board Members to the PAL Cabinet
Representatives to continue discussions regarding both disbursements of the PAL funds already
collected and determination of how to divide future donations that involve the sponsorship of
Cultural Center spaces. The Library Foundation position was to allow donors to determine where
funds would be placed but in the absence of intent by the donor, a 50-50 split between both the
Library Foundation and the Community Foundation would occur. The Board believed that this
would encourage both Foundations to continue to work on promoting the sponsorship opportunities
in the community.
