The an- swer may never be known. Markham's library bard tried to cut costs when its tendered project came in approximately $100.0! over the 85.0.0! estimate. Major cuts could not be made. so the board opted for Markham Council s proptnal for a new library at the in- tersection d Highvnys 7 and so. last week. The Economist and Sun talked with Fraser Milne. an architect with the Newmarket firm of Smith and Milne. which designed Newmarket's library expansion. Mr. Milne was happy to discus the library project.butrefusedon rofemional younth to make com on tween his work and that d a architect.

In Markham. the major problems included an undervround spring and the need it: an entire replacement of the existing roof. The Newmarket project tendered at approximately $4571! in June of 1978, Some extras brought the line] construction [rice to .

A separate school in Newmarket which the {inn designed came in at $29.71 per square foot last year. Although he had 5 en with an unidentified Markham ficial about his work after the Markham reject had been tendered. Mr. Milne said is firm was not interviewed regardiru the new building Mary Muir. chairman of the Ma m Ubrary Board. said her board he in- terviewed the lowest bid on the addition and found it couldn t reduce the costs "In the interest of more space and sorely-needed improvements in library facilities. we accepted the suggestion d Markham Council to locate the new library at Highways 7 and ts." she said.
