The Comprehensive Plan chart and Map shows a projected Waverly regional library (number 15) and a projected Gainesville community library (number 11), both north of I-66. The 1998 Plan also shows a projected Braemar community library (number 16) and a projected Linton Hall community library (number 13) in the far region of the Linton Hall area to the south.

The Capitol Improvement Plan and the 1998 Comprehensive Plan are in conflict regarding the regional library at Waverly and this conflict must be resolved.

ACTION STRATEGIES:

1. A mini library must be planned in the Village Center in order to ensure that the Village Center achieves a sense of community.

2. Based on a Levels of Service assessment for the Sector and its environs, either a community or regional library should be considered for a location that could serve the residents of the Sector area. Such a site presently exists at Waverly and should be given primary consideration. Providing this facility should be expedited.

3. If, in the process of re-assessment of the needs of the Sector and its environs, additional facility needs are identified, the Sector area should be given priority consideration. In particular the area south of Route 29 would be a desirable location for such additional facilities. Expedited acquisition of a suitable site for such identified additional facilities is encouraged.

4. Expedite a resolution of the problem of the probable closing of the Long Park Mini-Library and the disruption in service to the residents that such closing would represent.
