Does the Columbia City Library expansion encroach on the adjacent park land?
A. The Park District deeded the library property to the library. We would expect not to need to make any encroachments on the park property to expand the library. Q. Who owns the alley at the Douglass-Truth Library? A. There is no public alley at the site. The property behind the library belongs to the library up to the adjacent residential uses. Q. Will the library stay open during the work? A. Except for the Central Library, we do not have separate budgets to operate temporary branch libraries at alternate locations during construction. The library will evaluate this issue by project. We will look at how far away library services will be available, the possible use of bookmobiles, and any other alternatives that provide for continuing library services. Q. Can we anticipate any changes in project square footage? A. No Q. How important is it to identify the full design team in our submittals? A. The focus of our selection will be on the architects; you may identify other subconsultants
