<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt">I would amend this a bit now:<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt">Calculate according to the revenues received from the library’s legal service area. Use the State Aid Computation form available from
<a href="https://mdoe.state.mi.us/samspublic/Home/StateAidComputationForm" target="_blank">https://mdoe.state.mi.us/samspublic/Home/StateAidComputationForm</a> . These figures are the amounts for local support (millage, penal fines, etc.). I would not count State Aid, as
those are not dollars paid by patrons. Use the totals from your legal service areas as the amount to calculate so that you have a good figure to represent what the legal service area pays for service – this is ideally what everyone with full service should
pay.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt">If you use your budget, the calculation remains the same, but may end up a but lower than your legal service area’s payments since revenues from contracted areas and state aid are also factored in. The result
will be a good indication of cost of services, however.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14pt">Let me know if you would line more explanation and I’ll add that sheet to my update list.
