Chamber of Commerce backs library levy issue

By Phil Cobb | March 28, 2017 |

It is my pleasure as Executive Director of the Greater Maryville Chamber of Commerce to submit a letter of support on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors for the April 4th ballot Library Levy Issue. The proposed ballot opportunity includes a variety of components that we feel would greatly benefit the Maryville Public Library and in turn the citizens of Maryville.

As a group we understand the need for the Maryville Public Library to remain in Downtown Maryville and to expand their budget to better serve the citizens of Maryville and Nodaway County. We look forward to the great improvements that the increase would contribute to, such as allowing the library to staff a full time professional to update the library’s children programs, and restoring the library’s ability to leverage needed grants.

The Board of Directors of the Greater Maryville Chamber of Commerce thanks you for your consideration and would appreciate your support by saying yes to the Library Levy Issue on April 4th.
