Jacobson Announces $15,000 Grant for Plattekill Library to Replace Air Conditioning System
July 18, 2024
Assemblymember Jonathan Jacobson (D-104) announced $15,000 in funding for the Plattekill Library to purchase a new air conditioning system for its Community Room.
“Libraries are part of the core of all communities, and in a rural town such as Plattekill, they play an outsized role,” said Jacobson. “Given the current heat wave, the new air conditioning system could not have come at a better time.”
“On behalf of the library and the Plattekill Community, we would like to thank Assemblymember Jacobson for obtaining the necessary funding for a new air conditioning system in our Community Room,” said Library Director Darren Lanspery. “We were told last year that our system could go any time, and Assemblymember Jacoboson stepped up immediately to help us out. The room is used regularly for library programs and by community groups, including the Golden Seniors, Girl Scouts, and 4H.”
