> Those Ward One residents in attendance voiced two clear positions for

> 1. A full expansion at the rear of the library.
> 2. A meaningful renovation and limited expansion. Part of the vision for

> TONIGHT... DCPL intends to bring at least four (4) different design
> schemes that came out of these recent working group discussions.

> Come out to weigh in on which configuration meets your library needs and
> those of your neighbors.
