FRAMINGHAM, MA - Supporters of a new building for the McAuliffe Branch Library have another chance to ask Town Meeting for funding.

Town Meeting may revisit project during capital budget debate

Prompted by the state’s extension of a $ 1.6 million grant towards the proposed project until June 30th, Town Meeting Member Audrey Hall says she intends to request funding during debates about the capital budget this week.

If her motion for funding the library doesn’t pass, it may be six years before Framingham receives another state library grant.

Framingham made history by being the first city or town to receive a grant for a branch library, a recognition that McAuliffe is one of the busiest libraries in the state.
