The Addison Township Library Board has purchased property for a library building!
Construction bids for the original location designated for a building could not accommodate the budget set for the project. Located at 900 Lakeville Road in Leonard, this new location has the potential of saving up to $400,000 in site development costs. The actual building plan remains the same.
The library is waiting on several procedures to conclude, such as the environmental survey, before breaking ground.
Please check the board meeting minutes on the ATPL website for new developments.

My dear Addison family,
After 17 years, I have decided that it's time for me to finally retire. Words can't express how much I will miss you and this library, but it's time for me to brush up on my "Grandma skills" and maybe take up pickleball. I'm sure I'll see you all again, especially as you move forward with plans for the new library. I wish you all much happiness, love, and peace.
Thank you, my friends,
Lyn Henderson
