Councilman Rick Blackwell announces the return of the District 12 Dialogues for 2011 and he will kick off this year’s series of meetings with an update on the proposed Southwest Regional Library.

“The new administration has renewed the commitment to moving forward with expanding the library system,” says Blackwell. “We want to continue the momentum for moving the Southwest Regional Library forward. This is an important project for all of Southwest Louisville.”

Nancye Browning of the Louisville Free Public Library system will be the featured speaker at this month’s District 12 Dialogue.
