The grants will be used to build, equip, and expand public libraries to increase capacity and serve the public.” The second is: “Do you approve amending the Constitution to dedicate all moneys collected by the state relating to natural resource damages in cases of contamination of the environment? The moneys would have to be used to repair, restore, replace, or preserve the state’s natural resources.
