"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

I Was There, Mr/Ms. Mole in the Hole.

"With a view to replacing them with a new and dramatic centre..."
No, I think that was your personal view. Your 'pie in the sky' proposal didn't seem to gain any traction around the council table.

I'm glad that the Town's centenary project building won't be demolished. We're losing too much of our built heritage, as it is. The town council shouldn't contribute to that deficit.

********************
I was there. I wrote the resolution. I spoke in  its support. I heard what others had to say. 
I don't think. 
I know 
Two thirds of the old library building is not the Town's centennial project.It's a building abandoned in favour of a  beautiful new modern facility with pride of place on Yonge Street.
It should have been demolished at the time the new one was occupied.
That it wasn't has long  since been acknowledged  a mistake. 
Get your head up into the light and try to keep your facts straight.
Even if you're not willing to give  your name.
