REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS 

A FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR DETERMINATION OF THE HIGHEST AND BEST USES

OF THE HISTORIC LAKEPORT CARNEGIE LIBRARY

The city of Lakeport, California is requesting proposals from qualified consultants, building and site design professionals, architects, engineers, economic development/marketing consultants, and/or similar professionals for the preparation of a feasibility study of the historic Lakeport Carnegie Library.

The city of Lakeport is the owner and responsible party of the Lakeport Carnegie Library, which is situated in a prominent setting at the foot of Second Street in Lakeport’s Library Park.

The stately building proudly faces west, towards the town as if to welcome locals and visitors alike.

The old library, with its back against Clear Lake to the east, is centered in the middle of Library Park, which is named after it.

The Carnegie Library is a significant local and regional landmark which is on the National Park Service – National Register of Historic Places (April 10, 2008).

PROPOSED FEASIBILTY STUDY

The city of Lakeport wishes to find a new and best use for the Carnegie Library and to open it to the public.

In 2013 the Lakeport Main Street Association, on behalf of the city of Lakeport, prepared and submitted an application for a $5,000 Hart Family Fund for Small Towns grant through the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

The city was recently notified of the award of the grant and now with the addition of $5,000 in matching city funds is seeking a qualified professional firm to conduct a feasibility study to determine the current highest and best use of the building.

PROPOSAL SUBMISSION

The complete request for proposal packet is available on the city of Lakeport Web site, www.cityoflakeport.com , via the “Hot Topics” button on the Home Page.

The deadline for both procedural/technical inquiries and RFP submissions is Monday, Jan. 6, 2014.
