The King County Executive, Kurt Triplett, presented his proposed 2010 Budget to the King County Council this afternoon.   The King County Law Library operation in Kent is funded completely from the County General Fund.    The Executive’s proposed budget includes no funding for Kent in 2010.   The possible closure of the library at the RJC would be a dramatic change in the way people gain access to the justice system.  The Budget process will continue as four Hearings are held in the coming weeks.  Information about these hearings can be found on the Council’s Budget Calendar.
