At the June 6, 2007 Special Meeting of the Board of Selectmen, there was a vote to "accept the recommendation of the Library Ad Hoc Committee to raze the current Library and rebuild a new Library on the current site and to establish a Building Committee..."

The committee consisted of members that had served on past Building Committees in Town or had various levels of expertise that would be helpful.  The members included the following:

Joe Sangiovanni (Chairman)
Glenn Neilson (Co-Chairman)
Kevin Goff
William Borchers
Bob Roberts
Thomas Wardell
Michael Alexopoulous
Mark O'Hara
William Gozzo

In addition to these members, the following Town employees were also assigned to the Committee:

Jim McShane (Library Director)
Jack Muska (Public Works Director)
Debbie Cerrato (Finance Director)
Bill Hawkins (Town Planner)

The Building Committee hired an architect to come up with the layout, schematics, rendering and updated cost estimates for the Library.

The building of a new library failed at referendum in July 2008 and the future building needs of the library are still being investigated.
