Only 3 firms left in Running.

The 16 submissions from Architectural firms have been reduced down to 3. Three firms have been selected by the Evaluation committee and asked to proceed to the Request for Proposal – Architectural phase of the project.

A Technical Steering Committee comprised of representatives of the Okanagan Regional Library, City staff and a council rep. Mayor Lippert will pick the successful firm that will design the complex . (Art Gallery may alo be on committee but not confirmed yet ?)

At yesterday's council meeting, $300,000 was authorized via short term borrowing to provide sufficient money to continue the process. (6-1 vote, Beardsell in minority again)
