Longer-form draft.
At the June 15 Library Board of Trustees meeting, a significant fiscal issue was raised: the library is currently approximately $3,000 over budget. Treasurer Devan Tracy reported that while the library has spent 41% of its budget (compared to 44% through the year), high utility costs during the winter months have created a deficit. This overage directly impacts how taxpayer funds are allocated for library operations and resources. The Board is looking toward the Meriden Library solar installation as a solution to these rising costs. Mike Adams reported that the solar panels and electrical wiring are now complete. The final steps, including the installation of the net meter and a new transformer, are scheduled for this Friday, June 19. While the Board expressed optimism that the solar system will offset these utility overages, the current deficit highlights the ongoing challenge of managing facility costs. We will continue to track how these utility expenses affect the library's ability to serve the Plainfield community. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/plainfield/library-trustees/2026-06-15/ #MeetingWatch #PlainfieldNH
