Complex now focus of new Aylmer library

In a surprise change of direction at their April 7 meeting, Aylmer councillors changed their minds on where a new library should be located.

A four to three vote was approved on a motion to partner with Malahide to enter into an agreement with Elgin County to utilize meeting space at East Elgin Community Complex to establish a new, expanded Aylmer library.

The motion negated, for now, the previous direction over the past several months from council to locate the new library in a building to be constructed immediately south of Old Town Hall Library.
