Fort Worth Public Library System This policy provided a plan for the completion of the
expansion project at Central Library and the design, construction and stocking of the East
Regional Library through the use of funds from the Capital Project Reserve Fund The expansion
project at Central includes the renovation of the lower level and the construction of the
infrastructure necessary to finish out the first floor These two projects are known as Phase V
The current estimated cost to complete Phase V is 51,925,000 00 It is anticipated that
5250,000 00 of this amount will be derived from private contribution Thus, the amount needed
from the Capital Project Reserve Fund is 51,675,000 00
