An impassioned plea from residents this week prompted Woolwich councillors to put off a decision on plans to convert the Bloomingdale Community Centre into the new home of the village’s library.
Services offered by the Region of Waterloo Library (RWL) will continue at the Bloomingdale United Church for the time being as council deferred a vote until at least the end of August.
Residents out in force for Tuesday night’s meeting stressed the importance of the community centre as a decades-long hub of activity for a village with no other amenities.
