The Palm Beach County Library System and the Palm Beach County Parks & Recreation Department will host a series of community town halls to provide residents with information about current and future capital project plans for library and park facilities throughout Palm Beach County.
Town halls will be held at every Palm Beach County Library System location and select Parks & Recreation locations, giving residents opportunities to attend a session convenient to their community. Each session will provide an overview of upcoming renovations of existing facilities, possible new construction projects, anticipated costs and potential funding sources.
Library and parks leadership will discuss the planning process and considerations involved in preparing for future facility needs. Residents will have the opportunity to ask questions and seek clarification about proposed projects, costs, funding and other aspects of the capital planning process.
