Status of New Library November 2009

Voters at Town Meeting on November 17th, 2009 defeated a motion to appropriate $20,000 to fund a feasibility and design study for a new library to be built on property leased from the Maplewood Cemetery on Maple Ave, Upton.

This vote effectively means that the Library Trustees can go no further in the process of planning a new library on the Cemetery site.

The Trustees will continue investigating other options, such as including library space in the renovation of Town Hall, or collaborating with the Selectmen as they consider the idea of purchasing and renovating the Holy Angels church building.
