@OCNCGOV Library Director Lucinda Munger is addressing some questions about #203Project from #CBoA. It's clear she has thought deeply about how a second floor library would work. I'm impressed.

Now talking about how the #203Project would address history- our table is pretty clear that the building presents a chance to address the legacy of white supremacy of Julian Carr with open eyes while also celebrating things we’re proud of.
Thrilled that we are now hearing from the children’s group! #203Project kids group Interests include:
-information about the weather
-a roof garden
-a place to park your bike
-a place where kids can read to dogs to practice their reading skills
there’s strong consensus in the room that the Libba Cotton bikeway transition into Roberson needs serious improvement, as does all of Roberson Street. #203Project
“Roberson Street is the Wild West” traffic-wise, one participant says, hopes the #203Project can tame the situation.
Gentleman at adjacent table suggests making cobblestone woonerf-style streets on Weaver, Roberson as part of #203Project
Currently @CarrboroTownGov #203Project public meeting. Lots of good ideas about cross-pollinating uses of Library, @ArtsCenterlive, and Parks/Rec. Examples: Latin American dance classes the same week library promotes books from that culture/part of world.
