[quote="Guest"]In regards to the costs, the rental of 60,000 dollars or so is just for the added expense of having the library open longer hours, summer, having a boiler technician there for those hours...when the library moves out, there would no longer be those costs. IE. no loss for the school.[/quote]

Actually studies show that building public libraries at the center of your town is a great ROI. In our case, we could have a group of residents who are interested in getting together to build a wonderful community center. The maintenance of the library is provided by the library appropriation - so no increase in taxes to keep a wonderful resource at the heart of our community. Plus the school would benefit because it would have the space it needs to have a proper school library...which I argue it does not have right now when the students have to be shuttled through and into the library classroom with limited time with the library collections. </td> </tr></table><span class="postbody"></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Jul 28 2011, 10:54 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: CRANBURY: Library presents plans to district</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Guest wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">Are you equating a ball field with a public library?

I am confident that a majority of the current Township Committee does not believe the Library can raise the full $2.7 million and believe they will come back asking for public help down the road. I am confident at least one person on the Library Board also believes this and one person involved in the fundraising campaign. I can't speak for the rest.
