Gorman Construction has been tapped to complete construction on the voter-approved teen area at the Bartlesville Public Library, located at 600 S. Johnstone Ave. The City Council approved the bid award during a meeting Monday.
“One of the capital projects for the library is to build out a portion of the second floor to be utilized as a teen area,” said Mayor Dale Copeland said in presenting the item for consideration.
The project includes installing wood joists and decking to cover approximately 700 square feet of the southeast portion of the second floor, utilizing beams installed with the original library construction, Copeland said.
Work on the project is expected to start late next month and should take about 120 days to complete.
