Vote YES on Budget Article 3

A request for $500,000 for repairs to this building will be on the March ballot. That will replace three failing roofs, deal with drainage problems, replace 1858 sewer pipes and dehumidify the basement to prevent mold from returning. The city will be applying for a grant that will add an additional free $100,000 to this project

Tables of Content III

Coming

April 24th, 2010

One hundred people will gather in the library’s Fox Room for dinner with one of fourteen authors. Candlelight, flowers and fresh table linens will transform the nineteenth century courtroom into a drawing room atmosphere. Guests will be seated at a table with an author of note, while waiters move quietly around the two-story chandeliered room serving dinner. With each course authors move to a new table so diners have an opportunity to converse with several writers over the course of the evening.
