A potential suitor could be in the works for the vacant Liverpool courthouse.
The Region of Queens is hiring Architecture 49 to conduct a feasibility study at a cost of over $12,000.
It costs the municipality about $52,000 a year to lease the space from the Rossignol Cultural Centre.
Mayor Christopher Clarke says if the library moves in, they would save about $29,000.
“We still have the expenses on the courthouse but we have those in any case; keeping it cleaning, etc. So. there is a cash saving if we move the library.”
The study will determine if the old courthouse is suitable for a library.
Clarke expects the study will take between a month and six weeks.
