It was interesting to read two alternate views published in the CCN forum on December 5 regarding the demolition of the old Gosford Library.
I am of the view that it would be sensible to retain the building, carry out the minor repairs required and then use it to earn a commercial return.
The existing toilets, including one currently unused, would then still be available to the public (although need to be upgraded).
People should recognise that our Council would have to spend a minimum of $100,000 to demolish the building – not to mention the loss of the toilets until they are rebuilt.
Our council needs to minimise current expenditure wherever possible to allow budget repairs.
