NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS OF ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION

Notice is hereby given to the taxpayers of the library known as Roachdale-Franklin
Township Public Library (the “Library”) that the Putnam County Council (the “Council”) will
meet in the Putnam County Courthouse at One Courthouse Square, Greencastle, Indiana, at the
hour of 6:30 p.m. (local time) on December 17, 2024, to consider the following additional
appropriation which the Board considers necessary to meet the need existing at this time:
An appropriation in the amount of $1,620,000 on account of the renovation of and
improvements to the Roachdale-Franklin Township Public Library, including site improvements, and the purchase of equipment and technology, including the incidental expenses necessary to be incurred in connection with said project. The funds to meet such additional appropriation are to be provided by the sale of real estate to a not for profit Library Leasing Corporation.
The foregoing appropriation is in addition to all appropriations provided for in the
existing budget and tax levy, and a need for such appropriation exists by reason of the
inadequacy of the present buildings to provide necessary library facilities in the library.
Taxpayers of the Library appearing at said meeting shall have the right to be heard in
respect to said additional appropriation.
Dated this 26th day of November, 2024.

/s/ County Auditor, Putnam County, Indiana
