One of the local issues on the Nov. 8 ballot is an Ada Public Library renewal levy. The Icon held an in-depth discussion about the levy with Amanda Bennett, library director.
Icon: Why is this levy important for the Ada Public Library? Bennett: Due to library funding cuts, libraries, through 2015, we are still functioning on the same budget schedules as they had been in the late 1990s.
Voters passed the library's first 1-mil levy for operating costs in 2012. On Nov. 8 is a renewal of that levy.
