[Adopted 12-9-2008 by Ord. No. 2008-20]
The Haddonfield Borough Commissioners shall
not make any expenditure or commitment of expenditures for a new public
library without first obtaining voter approval of required funding
by means of a general election ballot question. Voters shall be given
the choice to vote for or against the required funding for a new public
library.
The Haddonfield Borough Commissioners shall
provide in the ballot question the total cost of the proposed new
public library including land, demolition, construction, renovations,
fixtures, equipment and furnishings. The total cost provided by the
Haddonfield Borough Commissioners in the ballot question shall be
considered the maximum amount that can be spent on the proposed new
public library from any funding sources.
Approval of the proposed new public library
funding shall be denied the Haddonfield Borough Commissioners unless
more than 50% of the ballot question voters cast their votes in favor
of the required funding for the proposed new public library.
