1. (1) Due to a breach of the obligation of any public library (independent or system member) to fulfill the requirements of state aid rules and regulations by the time of the beginning of the last quarterly payment of state aid, said funds appropriated for the use of the library not in compliance shall be forfeited. The forfeiture shall result in the state aid funds being used in statewide support services in accordance with the concept of state aid support.
2. (2) Any public library not receiving or certified to receive state aid funds two consecutive years shall be removed from the list of eligible recipients for state aid funds. The formerly designated state aid funds of an ineligible public library shall be assigned to another public library of the same geographic county at the discretion of the APLS Director.
