The architect has completed actual design <br /> of the library facility based on the Master Program Plan, which resulted from community, City of La Porte, and <br /> Harris County input, and approval by Council earlier this year. <br /> The library's design of 23,357 square feet accommodates requested space requirements for all interested parties. <br /> At this time, the architect anticipates costs of this project to remain within the projected budget estimate of <br /> $2,715,600.00. <br /> At a recent meeting, Harris County staff, Friends of the Library representatives, and City staff reached a <br /> consensus for the interior layout and exterior design. Mr. Hall will present a revised layout of the interior, as well <br /> as, an artist's rendering ofthe exterior. <br /> Action Required by Council: <br /> Direct the City Manager and architect to proceed with the bid process for the library project's <br /> construction phase. <br /> Illth- I ~ ' ~h"" I ~'d <br /> Availability of Funds: <br /> - General Fund - Water/Wastewater <br /> _ Capital Improvement_ General Revenue Sharing <br /> - Other <br /> Account Number: N/A Funds Available: - YES - NO <br /> -......,.,,,.,, ,., <br /> Aooroved for City Council Aeenda <br /> AJ~f. ~ I'Z: i.
