OSAWATOMIE–Due to timing constraints, the osawatomie library has pushed back the application for a Community Block Development Grant to next fall. Osawatomie librarian Elizabeth Trigg said the delay would make it possible to move forward with Phase 2 of the renovations project. The project includes an enlargement of the library, additional programs for adults, youth and family, a John Brown/Kansas History room and reading and public meeting rooms. The library met its goal of raising 25% for matching funds which was $100,000. Trigg said points are awarded based on the percentage of matching funds raised so increasing that percentage would help the cause.
