Minimum requirements include previous experience in public library or similar public facility design and/or construction management on a state and/or federally funded project and ability to meet construction deadline of September 30, 2026.   

Interested parties are invited to review full RFP documents to understand the project scope, requirements, and timeline. We welcome proposals from those with demonstrated experience in innovative and community-centered architectural design and construction. Our goal is to partner with industry leaders who share our vision of creating a sustainable, adaptable, and welcoming space for the La Crosse community.
