It's a fact that paying $333,000 per month, per library is highway robbery

SG will still be paying for all 14 of these libraries.

Just like Zachary and Central do.

Won’t disagree there. That is an insane amount of money for libraries.

How much do other cities pay per library per month?

While whoever wrote that post isn’t flat out lying, it’s certainly misleading to people who don’t know better.

I would assume that 56 million figure includes salaries and pensions, which like all levels of government takes up a large chunk of the budget.

It’s easy for STG to claim a 58 million budget without factoring in things like salaries, and not having to worry about pensions or hiring a lot of employees.

Again, I’m on the St. George train, but there’s no need to push misleading info to get your point across.

Id love to see the monthly breakdown of where the money actually goes. I bet the paper trail leads to some illegal activity.
