This document provides an update on the construction and renovation of the Capitol View Library. It discusses the interim location of library services at the JC Nalle school during construction. Design plans for the exterior include improving the front entrance, refreshing the facades, connecting the library to the community, and reconfiguring the recycling area. Landscape options presented include planting strips, green walls, and insect hotels in the rear garden. Next steps include a community meeting in the fall and design reviews.
