North Saanich council has found itself on
the verge of another fight over a new library
building — this time a $1.6 million complex
in Nanaimo.

Council first learned of the new library.
May 4 when Ald. Dermid Bingham said the
Vancouver Island Regional Library board
has already asked for design suggestions for
the new building — without having even
settled on the site.

Council expressed concern they hadn’t
heard about the new complex before the
architects’ contract was issued.

“Things are preceeding very, very
quickly,’’ noted Ald. Alan Cornford, but
nobody seems to know what’s going on.
How can they have architects’ drawing when
they’re still negotiating for the land? he
asked.

Former VIRL representative Nell Horth
told council the Nanaimo complex will be
°20,000 square feet and is intended to house
about. 1.5 million books used for the Van-
couver Island library syste. _

She said the cost is $1.6 million because
the building requires special insulation and
other unique features to store the books. »

But Ald. Jay Rangel wasn’t impressed.
‘‘We’re on another merry-go-round,’’ he
said. We’re going to be asked to participate

in the costs. but haven’t been given any in-.

formation yet.

Mayor Eric Sherwood said from inquiries
he’s made council will probably have to pay
a 50 per cent increase in its library
assessment next year — but for one year

North Saanich’s 1981 VIRL assessment is

-almost $62,000 so that would mean. its

contribution to the new: complex would total -

about $31,000.:
Cornford reiterated he found the olan

‘‘premature’’ without: further ‘consultation
with the VIRL board.

Horth.: responded ‘that ‘a: committee had ve
“studied the issue and. brought the facts to a”
February VIRL board meeting, but North’

‘Saanich’s representatives didin’t show up.

Council agreed to ask for-studies ‘sup-

Meanwhile, i in another VIRL issue, ‘North

HE CANADA EXTRA FANCY Newton

neat piece of stick work”’ by the VIRL
board.

North Saanich was in the process of
canvassing mayors from other VIRL
municipalities about changing the taxation
formula from 100 per cent property
assessment to 50. per cent property
assessment and 50 per cent population
assessment.

Mayor Eric Sherwood said the latter
formula is used for some Capital Regional
District functions, and North Saanich and
Sidney use it for Panorama Leisure Centre
operational costs.

Sherwood said he sent letters to eight other
mayors in smaller Island communities and
received replies from six — and only one was
not in favor of the change.

But apparently. the VIRL learned of the.
bid to change the formula and called a vote
at its last meeting — before Sherwood could
compile all the replies.
