Acton Council Eyes Public Library Project Approval
Acton Council backs the special committee’s public library plan for a 2 800 square foot facility on Robert Little school grounds facing Malet and Willow Streets. The split level design includes a children’s and reference section with space for 10 000 books and future growth. An exterior foot bridge would connect River Street parking to the site as the creek area is landscaped, while negotiations with the school board continue for site status and funding. Fall fair updates note Acton Fair with agriculture emphasis into its second half century, highlighting farming, crafts, and a Miss Acton Fair selection with judges’ verdicts expected.
