If we were not spending huge amounts of revenue on

Referendum designated capital dollars for the new central library and
renovations of the community libraries cannot be exchanged for
operating dollars for the community libraries.
Nearly 70% of Minneapolis voters said yes to the new central library
and community library renovations. Linden Hills, Bottineau, Franklin,
and Sumner have been completed. East Lake and North Regional are
underway. The Walker roof (deck) replacement should be completed by the
end of January, 2006.
