Property taxes: Property Taxes collected will be more than budgeted because of our conservative estimates in the growth on new
taxable properties
Motor Vehicle Excise taxes MV Excise was at 2.9 million for 5 years then dropped to 2.7 million in 2009 and 2.5 million in 2010 Back up to 2.9 in
2011 down again in 2012 to 2.8 million.
Meals Tax 8 months est at 140k Actual was 172k for 2011. In 2012 a conservative estimate was made given the lack of
historical data resulting in a $123k surplus.
Penalties and interest on taxes Penalties and interest are dependent on who decides to pay off old tax liabilities and therefore, very unpredictable.
Charges for services Charges for services include Permits from the inspection department which are dependent on economic conditions
Intergovernmental (includes State Aid & Medicaid Reimb) State Aid is not known during the budget development. 2009 had 9c Cuts (Mid year cuts made by Gvnrs office.) In
2012, there was a one time state aid surplus pmt of 198K.
Investment income Interest rates for this 5 year period went from 6% to less than 1%. We earn interest on money we borrow for projects (eg High School
Const, Energy Improvements) We do not include interest on borrowed funds when budgeting revenues because it is not sustainable
Other Other income includes one -time, unanticipated, non - recurring, inconsistent revenues. Insurance Dividends, MIIA rewards,
legal settlements, reimbursement of prior year expenditures

BACKGROUND FOR LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION ARTICLE
On October 4, 2012, the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners announced that they
have awarded Reading Public Library a General Construction Provisional Grant award of
$5,105,114.
Planning Process
The Reading Public Library Board of Trustees commissioned a study in 2010 to determine
present and future facility needs in the light of steady growth in service and multiplying
facility deficiencies. The Trustees are committed to preserving the character of the current
library while enhancing its accessibility, functionality and adaptability.
Beacon Architectural Associates, working in conjunction with Adams & Smith Architects,
determined that the current building is structurally sound but highly inefficient for today's
needs. Their proposal calls for rearrangement of existing internal space and a 7,596- square-
foot expansion on the hill at the easterly side toward School Street. The two -story addition
would align with the lower and main levels of the current building. Major structural repairs
and substantial renovation are required to comply with current building codes.
The 2010 Fall Town Meeting authorized the Library Trustees to apply for a state grant for
construction. The application was submitted in January 2011. The Library staff and Trustees
conducted information sessions and building tours in 2011 -2012 while the Trustees waited for
the Governor to release additional funding in Fiscal Year 2013 so that the Reading project can
begin.
During the next nine months the Reading Library Trustees and town officials will work with
the community to gain the local match funding necessary to move forward with the grant.
"Local support is really key to the success of a project because it ensures that each project
meets the unique needs of its residents," said Rosemary Waltos, MBLC Construction
Specialist.
History
On March 3, 2012, the Library celebrated its 28th year in the 116 - year -old Highland School
building. Since its relocation to the historic landmark in 1984, the community's use of the
library has more than doubled.
For many of us, the Library as it is feels like home. But there are limitations to an old school
building serving as a busy, high- traffic library: inflexible spaces due to inadequate
infrastructure; no room to grow or update technology; no place to plug in a computer or
laptop. The dark corners, dead -end stacks, and hidden areas make supervision of public
spaces difficult and public safety and accessibility issues need to be addressed. Structural
problems need to be fixed: the roof leaks; the basement sometimes floods and is often damp;
the gutters, masonry, and windows need major repairs; and the HVAC, lighting, and work
spaces are inefficient and outdated.
15
Need
The community's use of the library has doubled in measurable ways and skyrocketed in many
others. As one patron describes it, the library has become the living room of the community. It
is a focal point that attracts residents of all ages. The charts show the tremendous growth of
library use in recent decades.

Use of Library Meeting Rooms
"After a review of this documentation and presentation, the Commission has determined that
the proposed project will comply with the spirit of the renovation and construction guidelines
enumerated by the Secretary of the Interior for buildings listed on the National Register."
Reading Historical Commission, January 2011
"As the Director of Community Services /Town Planner I applaud the efforts by all involved
in this endeavor to update, expand, and rehabilitate and breathe new life into the Reading
Public Library. Careful planning has resulted in a vision for the future of the Reading Public
Library that is truly exciting.... The Reading Public Library represents a unique opportunity
16
to both preserve an historic building while also develop a new wing that will complement,
not compete, with the buildings original grandeur....
The library's plan is consistent with the Reading Master Plan because it will preserve a vital
educational, cultural, architectural, and historic resource. Likewise, it is located within
walking distance of downtown and reinforces the attractiveness of our "village style" town
center. The availability of more space for community meeting rooms, children's activities,
reading rooms and quiet study, and new computer areas will completely transform the
Reading Public Library. The green roof and energy efficiency elements of the plan are
especially noteworthy and consistent with our plans for sustainable development."
Jean Johnson Delios, Community Services Director /Town Planner, January 2011
"The Reading Public Library building, originally built as a school, was converted to a library
facility in 1983 as the Town of Reading's needs grew. Over the course of its 116- year -life
many small renovations have occurred with the most recent occurring in 1983. The spaces
have been repurposed to allow the Library to operate more efficiently. However due to the
age of the building, its overall condition and its ability to function as a 21" century Library, a
full renovation is necessary."
Joseph P. Huggins, Director of Facilities October 2012
