Mayor: The city council has proposed additional funding for the town library  However, the library's own studies show that fewer than 10% of town residents use the library  The city council claims that the library is underutilized because the books, electronic media, and computer equipment are outdated, and that if these were updated, more residents would use the library  However, the last time the town allocated additional funding to the library, usage of the library did not increase
Ttherefore the town should not allocate additional funding for the library
The last time the town allocated additional funding for the library, the funding was used to repair the crumbling staircase and ramp leading to the library entrance.
