Why
Thanks to Mahopac voter approval of the June bond referendum, they are able to begin renovations to create a more comfortable, sustainable building that will serve the community for years to come.
The goals are:
- decrease energy and insurance costs by installing additional insulation to interior walls and exterior soffits
- make necessary adjustments to the existing HVAC system;
- regrade and resurface portions of the parking lot;
- prevent storm water pooling by entryway steps and sidewalk
- adjust or replace drafty windows on the North side of the building
Closing the Library building and moving to a temporary location will save time and money as the renovation project can proceed without interference or interruption.
The library welcome this opportunity to make your library has everything that you need to pursue your dreams and achieve your goals. As soon as they can safely open the Library building they will announce it. In the meantime, please visit them at 906 Route 6, or contact us via phone or email.
