The Appleton Public Library Board of Trustees approved a package of routine financial and policy items during its March 18 meeting, including the monthly bill register, a March 2025 budget amendment, the 2025 APL materials budget and two policy updates.

Board members voted to approve the bill register (agenda item 25-0235) and a March 2025 budget amendment (25-0236). The board also approved the library's proposed 2025 materials budget (25-0237), an update to the citywide fringe benefits policy that applies to library staff (25-0238), and revisions to the library's space use policy and rental fee schedule (25-0239).

The motions were presented, seconded and passed by voice vote; no recorded roll-call tallies were provided in the meeting transcript. The board chair called for questions on several items; staff provided brief explanations (for example, the materials budget was noted to include a $21,000 contribution from OWLS). No votes against or formal abstentions are recorded in the transcript.

The approvals enable expenditures listed on the bill register, implement the March budget changes, and put into effect allocations and policy clarifications described in the materials and space-use items.
