Village of Mukwonago approves library expansion

$4500000/8519 = $528.23
You could buy every man, woman and child in Mukwonago a new Ipad for that money. Are you going to name the Library after some famous Chinese person? They are paying for it, after you get to the bottom of the Enron style accounting games government at all levels play. Wake up sheople!

Not really sure what the comment from GuthriePride is all about. Wish I could have been at the meeting last night to cheer and clap for the library with the rest of the supporters. My family has been using the community library for over ten years and will continue to do so for many more years to come. It is one of our communities greatest treasures!

Victlusz- Let me explain my comment- We do not have the money for this frivolous stuff, what do you do at the library that you cant do on a PC? Any book or dvd can be found used dirt cheap on ebay or amazon. My guess is you are using the library as daycare. Whats next for Mukwonago a new amphitheater, aqua center or velodrome?

Its very unfair that the residents of the village have to foot the bill for this expansion when only 40% of its users are from the village. I use the library and never have had a problem finding a seat. Perhaps they could extend the hours ,instead of closing early on Saturday, and all day Sunday. Retired people will not see an increase for 2010 &2011. Also there are many people hurting in the village that can't afford this tax increase at this time. The village board needs to understand that this is no time to be increasing spending. Hold more fund raisers for the library.
