Neighbors say they've been advocating for this project since 2017. While they're worried about additional delays, they're hopeful about how beneficial the project could be.
“It’s giving back to the community,” Trimble said. “I grew up in this area probably a mile away from here, so I know the value of what it brings to this part of town.”. It’s due to ongoing construction to renovate the building through 2017 and 2022 city bond projects.
Trimble serves as the president of the Friends of Las Palmas Library group. She said she’s been advocating for renovations to the library since before 2017. She’s been working with the vice president of the group, Linda Arronge, through it all.The project is supposed to bring improvements to the children’s area, the teen area, meeting rooms, the technology lab, and bathrooms. A “Learn Center” is expected to be added.
In a meeting held on Monday, the Las Palmas Branch Library community discussed construction updates with San Antonio Public Library and Public Works leaders. It was held in person and live-streamed. To watch the meeting,. The city said the major update was that construction prices have increased and now the bond budget won’t cover the original project. The city reviewed the project and found ways to modify the plans to reduce the cost of the designs.
