Approve $400,000 to buy electric bookmobile and install charging equipment
In Plain English
The library's current bookmobile from 1993 broke down and no longer meets state emissions standards. The city already secured $250,000 from the state and $70,000 from library fees for the $683,000 project. If approved, Richmond gets a new electric bookmobile with 150-mile range by March 2026.
