LIBRARY, from page 1
"There are a lot of folks pushing hard
to get this done," Tulli said. He is a
member of a bipartisan group currently
seeking to put the funds for the project
into the budget.
University officials are taking action by
planning a Valentine's • Day campaign,
Leventhal said. Valentine cards will be
sent to the governor thanking him for
approving the funds and asking him to
"have a heart" and release the funds .
Money for the library would come
from the sale of bonds, Grimm said. As
funds become available, the budget office,
under Budget Secretary Michael
Ilerschock, reviews the approved projects
and recommends to the governor where and
vtr tit a to release money for a building
design
Each step is a hurdle, and the bond sale
could delay the start of construction
'The sale of the bonds depends on the
fiscal stability of the state," Schuckers
said
The budget office must consider
recommendations which are based on need
and other priorities, Grimm said. Those
needs and priorities could put other
projects in the $2.38 billion capital
construction budget ahead of the
Harrisburg library.
In past budgets, some projects were
done before others in order to meet federal
mandates, such as conforming to the
recent Americans with Disabilities Act.
Other projects involved issues of public
safety, such as meeting fire codes.
There is a large backlog of such
projects, according to a letter Herschock
sent Tulli.
