Library to re-apply for Woodside construction funding And it's trying again, even though its application for a provin- cial grant of $346,800 for a 'new' Woodside Library has been reject- ed by the jobsOntario Community Action program. Directors of the Oakville Public Library ably demonstrate the old adage: If at first you don't succeed. try and try again. "The ($1,200,000) project had to be completed by March of next year," said Edie Hopkins, the library's deputy director. "There was no way we could have it fm- ished by that time." But the library will send in another application and has high hopes it will be accepted. Hopkins said it's a new ball game since the Community Action program has changed its criteria since the origi- nal application was submitted. In fact, there is really no criteria this time around. Acceptance is now fact, there is really no criteria this time around. Acceptance is now based on such indications as com- munity involvement and town sup- port. Moreover, other ministries besides that of culture, tourism and recreation are getting involved in the funding process, explained Hopkins. The library has been aggressive in its attempts to attract community involvement. In March, May and June, it held public meetings to discuss the results of a Feasibility Study (including accessibility) for renovating Woodside Library. By BARB JOY Oakville Beaver Staff The first two meetings. held at Woodside, attracted some 100 resi- dents with 30 of them putting their names on a mailing list to receive information about the project's Electronic equipment stolen from residence About $2,300 worth of electronic equipment was stolen from a Meadowland Drive residence some- time over the weekend. According to police the house was ransacked. A Sony VCR, Panasonic VCR, a CD player, cam- era and telephone were reported stolen. Ford Dr. meeting slated for Dec. 8th A special council meeting will be held on Dec. 8th to discuss the Ford Drive Environmental Assessment. Although.one councillor Monday initially suggested the issue be placed with another council meeting slated for the end of this month, council opted to remain with the Dec. 8th date. Arguing the Dec. 8th date was the proper one, ward 3 councillor Keith Bird told council that the evening will likely bring forth many delegations and the issue needed a separate meeting. "We've already had at least two other public meetings with upwards of 200 people at each one," said Bird, asking that council remain with the Dec. 8th date. _iCrri'iii'il's)1Wr1tiie (Scanner was trying tO 1trft)t the cailer Ott the line. she fieairdlthe gunshot. that' 1tit1iut (_, _i,Trttwdrt1iut was; Cmuching Wudghgbar-when shofphoncd §§¥3€pmg her 'cool'paid offfor Ttrr/fydi,ne, _ii):)iiitttiiYrtiishn Wise counselling a v)iiiiiiiiiitttiu bartender at a murder § Ity, ', ' ' $9} ,gshas won police dispatcher g (t _'is1rtb1tprtttrr a national award, _iiiee)),'l:, $16 tHalton Regional Police si"j,iltt"tirttitrtt,ty, took a robbery call itititiriti ttttiiitle bartender in the $3“!

She said consensus at the meet- ings definitely revealed the pub- lic's wishes: it wanted the library renovated and it wanted it to stay where it was. This attitude, along with the ongoing support of area MPPs "lt would be nice to have more," said Hopkins. "However, I think people don't see it as a high- profile project. even though it is a significant one." Sale!

The town has created a special reserve fund for the Woodside branch of $263,000 and should be eligible for $256,100 of growth- related financing. based on an anticipated influx of 5,000 people into Shell lands, noted a library report. After the provincial grant is taken into account, however. it still leaves an outstanding figure of $373,600. Hopkins said the library will look to the Town of Oakville for ' meeting tft THE OAKVILLE BEAVER 10th the rest of the funding. On Dec. 7th, December, it will present the results of the Feasibility Study to members of the town's community services committee and seek endorsement of the project from them.
