The library referendum pro- posal was put on hold pending a city council study of a community-conference centre announced last summer. It call- ed for borrowing up to $500,000 through the referendum, getting @ one-third provincial lottery grant and raising 3150, 000 locally. "That study of a centre estimated at $4 million to be built on land beside the cour- thouse found it would operate at a deficit and not attract the number of conventions city of- ficials first predicted. — In the meantime, two other projects have surfaced, one for added.

The latter ‘would mean moving any type of planned facility to beside the current arena. - Talstra said the city has $5 million in unused borrowing power ($5 million has already been committed) and so it must look at all other capital cost re-_ quirements. “The library board has aduty - to look after its readers but the city has to consider a whole number of things,”’ he said. “We have roads and in- frastructure to consider, The road system is 30 years old that’s falling apart on us. The ~ question is where to allocate some of those monies we can borrow if the public will allow - us to borrow,”’ Talstra said. ABBEY’S ANNUAL GREAT WHITE SALE!
