I’d rather have graded streets because we seem to get snow here. If we are that poor a library shouldn’t be in the budget along with a downtown arena that will cost 10 times the price today, billions more.
Did you know that the average homeowner paid an additional $1.60 per year than the last (making it about $243 total in a year) for this new library. So not much.
Right. And to most people, the cost of this is an important and critical community program. Which is why it has the funding that it has allocated to it.
To lots of people. Plenty of us talk all the time about how we should be doing more to provide outlets for people (especially kids and teens) before they get drawn into criminal activity. This is a solid part of addressing that. Cooking classes, a gaming room, a space for learning to produce video, all of these are intended to engage the community and we hope they will divert a few people away from things we'd rather they not be doing.
