Community Facility Visioning (Kennett Area, 2017)
Eight municipalities surrounding Kennett Library tackled a community facility visioning process to identify and build consensus around a new facility, laying the foundation for a community center to serve the area for decades to come. The outreach process for the study included a public survey and multiple workshops. Completed in 2017, the final study provided details on the needs identified through the process and recommendations regarding the siting, design, and development of a new library within the borough of Kennett Square. The municipalities were assisted by the team of RRMM Lukmire Architects and Providence Associates. The project was funded by the municipalities (Kennett Square Borough and the townships of East Marlborough, Kennett, Newlin, New Garden, Pennsbury, Pocopson, and West Marlborough) and a VPP cash grant.
