Background and Discussion: The County will operate the Katy Branch Library and provide a full range of library materials for the Library which are customarily provided in public library programs to the citizens of Harris County. The County provides support services for the Library, including acquisitions, cataloging and processing of all materials, delivery of materials, continuing education for the staff, management support for the operation of the Library, and a technology system for the Library. The County will fulfill other duties as outlined in the agreement. The City of Katy maintains the building, furniture, utilities and other duties as outlined in the agreement.

 

Expected Impact: Continued public access to self-education, enlightenment and enrichment, and a public library within the city limits of Katy for the residents of the City and the County.

 

 

Alternative Options: We could not execute the agreement; the County Library would request funding from the general fund to continue operation of the Katy Branch Library or discontinue operation.
