Library Planning
A ton of work has happened since December and we are now ready to give you the first look at the draft plan for the new library! We here at the library are very excited about this plan. It gives us flexibility, room to grow and will let us service the community in new and wonderful ways.
The only thing I would like to caution people on is that this plan is a draft. It is a very good draft but things can and probably will change in the next few weeks. If you have any questions or input about the plan stop on by the library and chat with the staff we would love to hear from you.
The design has been carefully looked at by the construction management team at Ledgewood Construction and the building is over budget. However, all is not lost! The design team is working on finding cost savings and hope to shrink the amount we are over budget by. The bad news is that it is going to take time to shrink the number. This will set back the vote for a new library for Rockport from June 2018 to November 2018.
We will continue to work hard to bring this design to life.
