Excerpt: The newly formed Waunakee Economic Development Commission is recommending that the village board go ahead and request proposals to build a library without asking the voters. "My personal bias has always been to go to referendum, but in this case, a referendum could kill the project," said John Laubmeier, village board president and commission member. The recommendation was one of several arrived at by the new committee. The economic development commission, a new incarnation of the previous Development Advisory Committee, was formed to address several economic issues.
