Cruz said.
N aito and Rojo argued the
county should not proceed with
the ert'ort at a time when funding for
it is not secure and funding for
existing programs and facilities is
anything but secure. Both noted
that funding for the venture doesn't
yet exist.
Rojo said a new library would
send the wrong message to voters
at a time the county is seeking ad­
ditional taxes.
Most o f those testifying favored
a new library along Lombard or a
more central north Portland loca­
tion, not at Columbia Villa.
Kent Spring, a high school li­
brarian and member o f the I ombard
advocates, said the new library
should be placed at the spot most

bia Villa might become “a very well-
planned ghetto. If you make it too
comfortable for people never to go
out o f it, you make it more difficult
(for residents) to become one o f
us.”
Lisa Home, director o f Penin­
sula C om m unity D evelopm ent
Corp., testified in favor o f the
choice.
"Columbia Villa, by its size, loca­
tion and the perceptions o f people
outside it, has been kept in isola­
tion . W e’re working to break down
those barriers. Rather than expect
(hat it’s the responsibility o f a low
income community to expand their
universe, it’s the responsibility o f
the people in the larger community
to become more knowledgeable
about what they’re talking about,”
Home said.
The commission debated as to
whether the vote would leave them
“locked in" to the Columbia Villa
site,
“All w e’re saying is ‘This is the
preferred site, let’s move forward,’”
[.inn said.
