CROUCH END: LIBRARY OVERLOOKED FOR MUCH NEEDED REPAIR FUNDS

22.8.05

Lib Dem councillors in Crouch End have expressed concern at the decision by Labour councillors to reject a bid for GBP 300,000 for Hornsey Library for rewiring and external repairs.

The news came after Lib Dem councillor for Crouch End Ron Aitken wrote to Haringey Council requesting clarification on the funding bid.

Haringey Council has said a bid for funding would be made next year, but Cllr Aitken is concerned that the much needed funds have not been made available now and anyway there is no guarantee the bid will succeed next year either.

Cllr Aitken comments:

"Haringey has an appalling record on management of key buildings. Hornsey Library must not be allowed to deteriorate any further.

"It took a campaign by library users and Lib Dem councillors just to get the heating boilers replaced two years ago."
