No tax increase. No new debt. Mayor Patrick Pizzella made the announcement. Crews are building the library on Magnolia Road, and it should open in spring 2027."The Given Memorial Library and the Tufts Archives are undergoing significant changes and modernization, ushering in a new era in our historic Village of Pinehurst," Pizzella said in a statement to Sandhills Sentinel.The new library sits only a few hundred yards from Pinehurst Village Hall. Its site covers 2.2 acres, a big jump from the 0.63 acres at the old spot. The building will have 140% more floor space and will meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards.Visitors will find 30 marked parking spaces at the new site. The old library has gone without its own parking for 60 years.The Tufts Archives will take over the entire current library building next to the Village Green. That gives the archives 59% more room for historical displays and meetings. A small pantry will serve events and conferences.Plans also call for a Village of Pinehurst History Museum. The George P. Lane Welcome Center will leave the Theater Building and settle into the larger archives.Pizzella credited the Village Council, the staff, and five years of planning for making the funding work."Thanks to a focused Council, careful planning, and a talented staff of professionals, these last 5 years, both the new library and archives will be paid for in full without a tax increase or issuing any debt," he said, per the outlet.</div></body>
