According to the News & Advance, Campbell County residents might be one step closer to seeing the completion a new community facility that will include a library.

"Organizers for the Timberlake Community Complex say the project could be a few steps closer to fruition if $350,000 in federal money comes through as proposed.

The money was included in a transportation and housing appropriations bill that passed the house Thursday, Rep. Tom Perriello D-5th District, said in a news release. A similar measure still needs to pass the Senate and reconcile in committee.

The federal money would be the second-largest single funding source for the project, which is estimated to cost around $3 million for the first phase that will house the Timbrook Library.

It’s in addition to the more than $400,000 promised in corporate donations, and Campbell County already has pledged around $700,000 to go toward loan payments, said Charles Falwell, chairman of the Board of Supervisors."
