The Saugerties Public Library is planning a major renovation which is long overdue. The public will be asked to vote on a referendum in the amount of $6.9 million to cover the cost of this undertaking. For a taxpayer, this comes to approximately $67 per year on a house assessed at $200,000. For this $67, the public will be treated to a beautiful and easily accessible library that will house an expanded children's area, a teen room, additional computers, a public meeting space for 90 people, and more. On Monday, April 14th, the architect for the project, Paul Mays, will be making a public presentation about the project at the Senior citizens center at 7 pm. I urge you and your friends to attend this presentation so that you can make an
informed decision when you vote on the referendum.
The vote will take place on Wednesday, May 7th, from 12 pm to
9 pm at the library.
