You need to look at a map, and remember those houses are why you even have a library to start with.
Now, that's the kind of shortsignted thinking that we need to readjust IMO.
There is absolutely no reason that we could not have had a viable community, including a library, and kept the dunes....it is done in other places and could have been done here. We had a library before--just because it was located in a retail building does not mean that it did not serve the educational purpose of a library. A library is much more than a building--it was the spirit of the people who organized the library that made it work--not just the dollars to build a new building.
It's that same spirit that wants the library open for people to use; while the other thinking closes it.
Preserving open spaces and protecting the environment for people just takes more responsible planning and less greed...
