Dear City Council- I am a Menlo Park resident and have been for the past 24 years. I have never understood why Menlo Park did not have a first class library. This is a town filled with educated, successful people who I feel value knowledge and learning. The current library building does not reflect a community with those values. I look at Mountain View and Burlingame and have wonder why doesn't Menlo Park have a library of that caliber. I am abashed that our community would not fully welcome Me. Arrillaga's very generous offer. I for one, would be completely support moving quickly as the costs change over time. With our time efficiency the expense of the construction will rise.
