im still pushing to get a meeting with the board so they can see how much people really want to keep the library downtown. its been a lot of phone calls but thank you for sticking with me while we try to protect the heart of our city.

the momentum behind this is honestly wild right now. seeing so many people care about keeping downtown alive makes me realize we really might have a chance to change their minds.

The library belongs in the center of town where folks can actually walk to it. Terrible idea to move it to the school property.

Bad idea. Downtown needs the traffic and the library belongs with the other businesses.

Leave it downtown. Business is already slow enough without taking away the main reason people go down there.

Why move it?? It works just fine where it is. Spend the money fixing the downtown building instead.

My kids walk to the library after school all the time. If it moves to the school land it just makes everything less accessible for everyone else. Keep it downtown!!

Keep our downtown alive. Moving the library way out there just kills the heart of the city.
