We are wrestling with exactly the same question regarding the same purpose, except it’s a Library Foundation rather than a “Friends” group. I talked some with Randy at Philomath, where they had build an entire library with volunteer labor, etc., several years ago, but it didn’t sound like they had necessarily “blazed a trail” in doing so.

Subject: [occma] Another Contract Question

Has anyone out there ever engaged in a project to benefit a city owned asset that was funded in whole by a 501-3c organization?  For example, remodeling a city library that is supported by a “Friends of the Library” group.  I have questions on how the contacting process and money management would work and would be interested in talking to anyone that has administratively blazed that trail.

Thank you for your help.
