The Northville District
Library is adding a new chapter
to the services and facilities at
the 22-year-old building down-
town.
A new 800-square-foot addi-
tion to the existing library is cur-
rently under construction, and
will feature a new conference
room and four additional study
rooms for groups or individuals.
Funding for the expansion came
partly from the 2018-2019 state
budget recently approved in
Lansing.
State Rep. Jeff Noble recently
helped secure the special state
funding for both the Northville
and Plymouth district libraries.
Both libraries proposed projects
that would directly impact edu-
cation, business development
and economic expansion.
“This is all about bringing our
tax dollars back home to improve
our economy and educational
opportunities for children in our
communities,” explained Noble.
“Overall, this budget does not
grow state government - great
news for taxpayers. And even
better news, the money the state
does spend will go where it does
the most good - including right
here in our community.”
The state funding will provide
funds for the cost of the construc-
tion and the furniture require-
ments of the new space.
Demand for meeting space by
community groups such as
homeowners' associations, Scout
troops, local organizations and
small business owners has
steadily increased over the years,
and the new conference room
will help alleviate this need, a
Northville library spokesperson
said. The new room will feature
an 80-inch LED TV, five laptops,
and five iPads.
“With the new space and
equipment, the Northville
library can expand demonstra-
tions and classes to help our
users become more tech savvy
and knowledgeable about online
content,” she added.
The additional study rooms
bring the total of private study
spaces to six -- two large rooms
that can accommodate up to
eight people, and four small
rooms for one-four people.
Study rooms are in continual use
year round by students, tutors
and researchers. The new study
rooms will open in late summer,
with the conference room avail-
able by mid-September. A public
ribbon-cutting ceremony is
planned for fall, she said.
Updates on the construction are
available at
brary.org>ConstructionBlog.
The state funding will allow
the Plymouth library will allow
students of all ages the opportu-
nity to improve computer skill
sets, complete school assign-
ments and create and edit video.
New offerings will include
upgraded public computers to
better accommodate Adobe
Creative Cloud Suite, a powerful
graphic and video creation soft-
ware product. A new graphics
printer will also provide large-
scale, high-quality printing. An
updated lab with Creative Cloud
software will be available this
fall. A library staffer said. An
unveiling of the new lab and a
ribbon-cutting will be scheduled
inOctober, she said.
The state funding also con-
tributed toward tech upgrades to
the Plymouth Library infrastruc-
ture, to include a building-wide
fiber core, wireless access points,
switches, and patch panels,
which will all contribute to
expanded, faster network capa-
bilities in the building. Go to ply-
mouthlibrary.org

on these projects.
commenced making $78,000
annual payments to the town-
ship until all resolved obliga-
tions were met for a group of
“over two dozen” employees.
Township board members
reported they felt the city obli-
gationwas closer to $1.5million.
In January, it appeared the
settlement was near when
members of the city commission
approved a Tolling Agreement
to provide for a settlement with-
out litigation or admission of
fault or wrongdoing and barred
an end of possible litigation due
to the statue of limitation rule.
At the May 22 board of trustees
meeting, Supervisor Kurt Heise
announced that the city com-
mission had accepted the $1.1
million settlement counter-
offer. The offer was $400,000
less than the previously report-
ed settlement obligation esti-
mate.
Township officials said it was
in the interim period that talks
bogged down for reasons
unknown.
Last Monday, Plymouth City
Commissioners unanimously
approved a $1.1 million settle-
ment payment to Plymouth
Township that resolved any
past, present and future pen-
sion costs related issues to the
IGA. The commission also
approved the funding for the
payment to Plymouth Township
utilizing internal loans from the
city Waste and Recycling Fund
($550,000.) and Budget
Stabilization Fund ($550,000.) to
be repaid over a 10-year period.
Heise was jubilant after learn-
ing of the settlement ratifica-
tion.
“This closes a bitter chapter
in the history our two communi-
ties…The Plymouth community
is united and moving forward
for our residents and visitors.
This is what culture change
looks like,” he said.
