Springville City Council sees proposed plans of new library

(Daily Herald) Pictures of the proposed 40,000-square-foot new library building were shown to the Springville City Council in a work session Tuesday afternoon in the new council chambers of the city's newly completed civic center.

During the presentation, the architect said that while the new civic center represents the 20th century, the new library will represent a "more forward looking building into the 21st century" and will be "a modern landmark iconic building."

The new building will be made of brick with some stone facing. The colors of the brick and stone have yet to be decided, according to the architects and city council.

A total of 30,000 square feet of the building will be on the main floor with 10,000 square feet on the second floor. A small basement will house the heating and air conditioning for the building. The building's main floor will house the public areas of the library, while staff offices and space for future growth will be located on the second floor.
