Dear Mr. Han
I am responding to your letter of April 12, 2013, where you pledged $1000 for the Friends of the Library of Hermosa Beach. I apologize for the delay in replying. We did receive your check and wish to thank you.
Our Board only meets quarterly and recently decided what to do with the money.
Our facility where we get book donations and then resell to support the Hermosa Beach Library is being forced to move in several months. The Hermosa Beach Police Department needs to swap a facility with ours. The rational is for security reasons.
This new facility will require some capital improvements such as a new front door, shelving, light fixtures, electrical outlets, fans and a heater. The details are not available yet but the plans are in work.
I hope this meets your requirements for detailing the expenditures.
Thanks again,
Howard Seeb
President, Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library
