Library schematic design advancing; construction manager onboard, cost estimates pending
Summary
Architects are finalizing schematic designs for the town library with completion expected in September; Alberg has been selected as construction manager and early demo bid packages could begin in October, with the project targeted to finish in June or July 2026. Cost estimates will be refined after schematic completion.
Town staff reported the library architects are developing schematic designs that should be completed by September. A basis of design has been selected and the team is refining minor details.
Alberg has been selected as the construction manager. Staff said once a fully executed contract is in place, early bid packages such as demolition could be issued with a goal of beginning in October. The timeline presented by staff projects the library work to conclude in June or July 2026 if the schedule holds.
Council members asked when refined cost estimates would be available; staff said preliminary numbers exist but final, more accurate estimates will be prepared after schematic design is complete and the project team "gets into the bones of the building." Alberg is already assisting on cost development, which staff cited as a reason for the firm's selection.
