Ortt Secures Funds for Orleans County Public Libraries

Senator Rob Ortt (R,C,I – North Tonawanda) today presented several oversized checks to public libraries throughout Orleans County. The funding, secured by Senator Ortt in this year’s State Budget, is in support of educational programs.      

The Community Free Library in Holley received $20,000, while Hoag Library, Lee-Whedon Memorial Library and Yates Community Library received $5,000 each. The grants can be used to assist with educational services and programming, purchasing materials, renovations, operations, or events that serve the community. 

This year’s funding is in addition to educational funding secured by the Senator in the 2015-16 State Budget.
