Reason for Recommendation
The South Lake Tahoe Library is one of the recipients of the distribution of the Gloria Harootunian Revocable Trust.  The disposition of the Trust Estate, item  3.3.1.2.5, distributes "The sum of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) to the EL DORADO COUNTY LIBRARY, 1000 Rufus Allen Boulevard, South Lake Tahoe, California, to be used for books, services, and operations of the library.  This gift is not to be used for building purposes."   The Library Department recommends that a Special Revenue Fund, the Harootunian Fund, be established for the purposes stated.
