Pike County libraries

Through out the last 20-30 years, this country has engaged in shameful and wasteful spending, and pike county is no exception. while taxes are supposed to take care of residents and services alike. I would like to know why has not anyone mentioned the fact that we have libraries in all the schools....why can’t someone that we already pay on a yearly basis, come up with a plan, to utilize the use of these libraries, as we already pay for them with our school taxes, instead of threatening another tax for a new library building. “By the way it will need maintenance,” just like any other building. Why can’t we maybe renovate the existing building....and open the school libraries on nights and weekends, and make the proposed lot for the new building, a “town parking lot.” Everybody who lives in this town, or comes here on a regular basis, knows that parking is at a premium. Face it, we need more parking “period,” and building a parking lot there, would benefit just about everyone, and every event. Allan Sisco Milford
