Seems like there's a pattern of uncontrolled spending with the library board. Where do those people come from, anyway, Kenwood? Every time we turn around, they have more expensive plans.
I love libraries, but my cherished memories aren't buildings designed by architectural celebrities. Good books made me forget WHAT the surroundings looked like. Reminds me of all the past efforts to "get Minneapolis noticed". I think we've been noticed ENOUGH. I just read that the lady cop was killed by a Chicago transplant. Now given the history of Chicago-area police, I can understand the hair trigger of a transplant, but on the other hand, our "getting noticed" has led to all kinds of people coming here from Chicago, Detroit, and Gary. Seems to me like being noticed LESS would be an excellent goal, especially if it would save some money. Jim Mork Cooper Neighborhood __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
