Design for Library Expansion - click for larger image
At the June 7th meeting of the Chapel Hill Town Council, a historic decision was made that will empower our community for years to come. The Town Council voted to issue the bond of $14.2 million to begin construction of a much-needed expansion to the Chapel Hill Public Library.
After careful consideration, due diligence, research and discovery, and a desire to honor the will of the voters, the decision was made to move forward on construction of the library expansion, enlarging the space from its currently inadequate 27,000 square feet to 62,000 square feet.
