Demolition

Demolition of the old buildings on the east side of Main St. is complete. The excavation will remain open , but protected, in preparation for digging the new library foundation. Eight contractors were selected, from a request for qualifications, to bid on the new facility. The construction bid will be awarded the first week in May.

Plans for the library and surrounding areas call for a modification of Hobble Creek. The west wall of the creek will be widened and lowered to create a better connection with the building, parking spaces will be increased, there will be more light in the building, and computers will be increased and divided into age-appropriate areas. The library has been carefully planned to make areas and items easy to find and navigate.
