Eyes Forward: Your Library, Your Future

To the Hanson Community,

Newsletter 5 | December 2025

We’re moving from concept to detail. That means fine-tuning layouts, costs, and schedules. Floor plans are becoming rooms and areas for programs and services.

Near-Term Milestones:

• Schematic Design: Translate the Library Building Program into a buildable plan
• Cost Review & Reconciliation: Obtain independent estimates and determine value management
• Public Forums: Provide clear answers, make available visual drawings, and welcome your feedback
• Grant/Funding Steps: Align with MBLC requirements and local town decisions



Your role is simple but vital: participate in events such as forums and town meetings, ask questions, and share your desires and concerns. That’s how we get this right for our community.
