Vicki indicated <br />that during the Library Annual Report presentation, the Board was <br />directed to analyze the available finances for a library expansion <br />project and to present the findings to the City Council. It was <br />indicated that the library expansion report (August, 1992) showed a <br />proposed project in the $740,000-$894,000 range which included <br />remodeling expenses for the existing facility in the $182,000-$239,000 <br />range. Of the remodeling expenses, approximately 258 are required due <br />to handicapped accessibility and Americans with Disabilities Act, but <br />the remaining 758 of the remodeling expenses were in the "nice to have" <br />category. Additionally, the construction expenses of the 4,400 square <br />foot addition of $418,000-$462,000 was believed to be a high estimate <br />and it was thought that the project could be completed for less than <br />that amount. The Board is hoping that a total expansion project can be <br />completed for approximately $500,000. <br />Vicki Sullivan also indicated that Lori Johnson, Finance Director, has <br />been working with the Board on available finances for the project. <br />Lori and Vicki reviewed the finances that are available for the project <br />
