"A first report has been made by the consultants hired to conduct a feasibility study for a new library. Roger Jones and George Schlukbier of Fox, Jones and Associates presented their first report to council, and the library board, along with some members of committees involved in planning for the new library. Librarian Adrienne Price said the report outlined possible interior design, and land use. Two parcels of town land on Holland Court have been chosen as the library site. The building will tentatively be built to the north of the west lot, with parking to the south. A final draft of the library feasibility study will be presented at a public meeting tentatively set for Wednesday, August 27."
