Riverview Residents Get Look At Layout Of New Library

RIVERVIEW, FL—Residents will have a chance to look over designs and voice their thoughts on the layout of the proposed new public library for Riverview.

A public meeting is set for Thursday, Dec. 14, at 6:30 p.m. in the Riverview High School cafeteria, 11311 Boyette Road, Riverview.

The new library will be constructed at 10003 Balm-Riverview Road, just north of Boyette Road. It will replace the community’s current 35-year-old library at 10509 Riverview Drive, Riverview. The current branch library is just 8,000 square feet. It is considered too small and too outdated to accommodate the growing south county community.

The proposed library will have 35,000 square feet of space and will cost about $12.6 million.

The Dec. 14 meeting will begin with a brief presentation by library and county real estate staff. Afterward, residents will have a chance to look over display boards and speak one on one with staff about the layout and architectural style of the new library.
