What passes for the management of Mecklenburg County’s public libraries has come up with a novel way of responding to county funding cuts of $15m. — vow to spend $4m. more on shutting libraries down. WFAE has the details of this latest not so passive-aggressive fiscal move by the library board, one which is clearly pushing County Manager Harry Jones toward DEFCON 4.
Yeah? You want to cut us $15 million? How about we cut another 26 percent on top of that, then? Huh? Huh? How do you like that?
Great plan, folks.
