Working with Library and Public Works staff, WMB Architect, Inc. has completed plans and specifications for the Lodi Public Library Teen Scene Project. Renderings of the proposed improvements are reflected in Exhibit A. The planned bid opening date is anticipated to be in March 2017. The project estimate is $450, 000. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
