Additional Property Attributes

Benton County recently received an Oregon Community Development Block Grant of 1,375,000 to build a new library in Monroe. The 2.4 million project will be covered by the grant, along with 1,044,000 in private local and foundation funding. The new 7,550-square-foot facility - located at Ash Street and Highway 99W across from Monroe High School - will replace the current 1,200-square-foot library at City Hall. The library, a branch of the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library, will serve the area encompassed by the Monroe School District. "It will be a chance to complete a badly needed new library in the Monroe community," Corvallis-Benton County Library Director Carolyn Rawles-Heiser said. "I'm really grateful to the state and county for supporting the project, and I'm really proud of the people in the Monroe area who raised money privately. I'm eager to start the project." Plans for the library include restoring a train freight building moved to the site by the community, which will be used as meeting space, and an additional 5,650 square feet of new construction. The new library will create more seating, storage space, quiet study areas and dedicated children's space. The library's size will allow doubling its collection of books, CDs and DVDs, as well as the number of computers available to the public. Computer access is particularly relevant in rural communities where many people have limited Internet access, constraining activities such as researching employment opportunities. Need for a new library was identified several years ago and the plans are based on input received from a series of public forums in 2005 and 2006. Officials expect to break ground in April 2012. "We are thrilled to receive this funding to fulfill a long-time community need," Commissioner Linda Modrell said. "Libraries are an important community resource for information exchange, accessing knowledge off-the-shelf as well as electronically and promoting family literacy. We are proud to be able to help improve access to those important opportunities."

Former Use: The site was acquired in South Benton Community Enhancement Associations on April 23, 2009 from Union Pacific Railroad UPRR
