Most Recent Update:

February 2010
Design development for the expanded and remodeled library continues. At the public meeting in January, the Mayor and City Council weighed in on KCLS adding parking to support Library and Park activities. The City requested that KCLS add 20 spaces as well as replace 10 spaces that will be lost during construction. While parking capacity already exceeds code requirements and the site has limited space, the City is the landlord of the property. Property adjacent to the Library on Auburn Way has become available and KCLS staff will meet with the City to investigate the possibility of jointly acquiring the property to satisfy the parking requirements.
