Dear Commissioners,
The Eagle Valley Library District Board of Trustees has one vacancy,which was created
when Trustee, Karen Koenemann, resigned with several months remaining in her term.
The Trustees met on Tuesday, October 11 to interview six applicants.They reached a
consensus to offer the position to Ruth Powers.
Ruth is a retired lawyer who resides in Gypsum. She currently serves as a board member
for Habitat for Humanity and for the Cotton Ranch Homeowners Association.
The EVLD Board of Trustees requests your approval of the appointment of Ruth Powers
to the Eagle Valley Library District Board of Trustees. Her five year term will officially
begin in January 2017. In the meantime she is planning to attend the October and
November Library Board meetings as a citizen to start learning about the Board and
Library District.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Linda Tillson, Director
