11-4-2020 DON’T WASTE TAX FUNDS ON NEW LIBRARY
I was extremely disappointed with the comments from the Los Altos City Council candidates, running for three open seats, all supporting the construction of a new library. This would be an appalling waste of our tax dollars. The current library serves the community adequately.
I have invited friends from all over the world to visit our current library and they have been enthralled by the beautiful country setting and its many facilities. It was built with great care, supporting adults, children and teens in a stunning picturesque setting. The clamor for new building exposes an inherent flaw in our economic model, where rich communities continue to outpace poorer, underserved communities.
Let Los Altos begin a new chapter in demonstrating compassion for poorer communities. Let us set aside a percentage of our revenue to uplift poorer cities. This could go a long way to level the current lopsided economic divide.
