| Maybe we can close during school hours and be open when the majority of residents are available to use the library which is weekends. |

I would think the library will adjust hours and methods to adjust to the “new normal”. Closed during school hours. Open more on weekends and evenings. Maybe a walk up window and /or a way to leverage the Gourgaud Gallery as a pick up location or a reading room.
It would be nice if they posted more detailed notes from their board meetings. A lot of the meeting notes reference documents that are not posted. |

| Hopefully our elected officials will see that now this silly stand alone library is a waste of resources for a town of our size. Less people than every will want to go to a public place like this. We really don't need to pay to maintain another empty building just like the empty ballfield next to the school. |

| The TC already agreed that if the state grant does not come through then it will go to referendum and voters will decide. I am not in favor, but I do u defat and there are those who are so a referendum seems the most fair. |

A referendum would be fair. The library has always opposed a referendum in the past. I guess we shall see... |

| Referendum would be great. The Library Foundation will do their best to try and prevent that since 95% of the town that did not donate to their fundraising can actually have a voice in how our tax dollars are spent. |

If we have an opportunity to vote on this it will restore my faith in "The System". This Library Monument has been just one more expense that was proposed by a few,funded in a small way by a few and then dumped on the rest of the Taxpayers for ever and ever as another money drain.It is someone's Pet Memorial Project, and some other's Golden Goose.
If we have a vote, I know a bunch of folks who will vote NO |

| I support the referendum. Supporters of the libary feel they speak for the majority of residents; those who oppose public funding of the library feeel they are in the majority. Float the referendum and we can determine where the will of the community lies. |

The Library does have a transparency problem. |

| The township is great as is. Let's not do anything to Ever change that. But let's dredge the lake and not question that cost too much. Let's not get too many estimates. And let's not fix Petty road. |

Petty road is being fixed and was going to be done this summer.
The lake dredging by law has to go out to bid and it was put to bid. So lowest bidder will win.
If you don’t like the town why not find a place you do like? You would not be the first or last to find Cranbury was not their ideal and decide to move. |

| Six days since NJ Gov announces libraries permitted for curbside pick up as of June 15th. No acknowledgement of such or plans disclosed from Director Mullen yet? |

Hey Now,
Let’s no criticize the poor overworked librarians. After all, the librarians only get 3 weeks of paid holidays AND 3-4 weeks of paid vacation per year, along with a flexible schedule and amazing benefits along with limited house in the summer. |
