Local News: Library


I love libraries and I usually support them. I will support $25M bond issue in May (From the Columbus Dispatch)

The bonds are to help to upgrade and expand facilities at the main library and the Lane Road branch. Based on the average residential property value in Upper Arlington, the new bond issue would cost the owner of a $300,000 home $100 to $105 per year.

The first reading of the legislation to place the bond issue on the ballot is scheduled to come before council on Nov. 24, with the second and third readings scheduled for Dec. 8 and Jan. 12.

Rankings:
Population of 25K , # 3 UPPER ARLINGTON PUBLIC LIBRARY, Upper Arlington, Ohio
Population of 500K # 1 COLUMBUS METROPOLITAN LIBRARY, Columbus, Ohio
