From
the Johnson County Daily News:
You
can have your say about the future of the Franklin library at a public meeting
next week.
The
Johnson County Public Library District board is considering its next steps
after voters rejected a $29.9 million downtown Franklin project by a
three-to-one margin. The library has since given up its claim to land where the
library branch would have been built and started a study of the space at all
four branches, including Franklin.
Board
members want to hear ideas and concerns about what happens next in Franklin,
board member Todd Bemis said. Residents can weigh in at 4:30p.m. Monday at the Franklin
branch.
“We’d
like people to talk about the direction of the Franklin branch,” he said. “We’d
like to hear what they would like to see in the Franklin branch and what they
want moving forward.”
The
meeting will be the first where residents can comment since they voted to
reject the library proposal.
