New City Hall design Informational WorkshopDate: 9/30/2008 Round Rock voters in 2001 approved bond funds for a new City Hall, and we are now in the early stages of the design process for that facility. We?ll have two opportunities on Tuesday, Sept. 30, for citizens and others interested in the project to begin giving us input on the project. We?ll have a come-and-go Open House meeting from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and an Informational Workshop from 6 to 8 p.m. Both meetings will be at the Baca Center, 301 W. Bagdad Ave. The Informational Workshop will kick off with a formal presentation by our architects, followed by the opportunities for interaction with the project team. The Open House meeting will be less formal and less structured, with no formal oral presentation. At both meetings, attendees will be encouraged to discuss their thoughts, mark down comments on boards, and maybe ?play? with blocks on a large site plan on the floor. The project includes design of a ?policy center? City Hall, which will be home to City Council chambers, administrative offices and public meeting space, as well as the ?campus green? area surrounded by the new City Hall, Baca Center, an amphitheater and the McConico Building that makes up the municipal office campus in the southwest downtown area. The City Council has hired Barnes Gromatzky Kosarek Architects and Architecture Plus to design the building and campus green. |
