Construction Meeting September 20, 2007

Library underpinning is complete; the existing building is safe and secure. Excavation for the addition will now start in earnest. Unfortunately, the digging will displace the sewer line – so bathrooms will be out of service for at least 30 days. The old parking lot will also be dug up to make way for new utility lines.

Parking will be in the new “upper lot” along Pleasantville Road. Entry to the Library will be routed through the park and down the stairs to the front door. If you are unable to negotiate the staircase, we would be happy to meet you with your materials in the lot. Please call ahead from home-or from you car. We continue to keep our regular hours!

Geraldine,

What is the status on providing access to the North County Trailway? 2 months ago you reported that it would be a priority. Nothing has been done. Has this issue been forgotten?

Hi Fred,
I am personally sorry for the fact that there is no bike trail access. But I have no control over anything, as you probably know! Heck - we haven't had bathrooms in quite a while!
When the new parking area is being used, the old one will be re-done and the trail access will be created. When this will all be finished - I cannot say.
Again my apologies. I can only say that plans are made, then changed, and changed again. lots of coordination with the trades - subcontractors...
