How does the architectural design get chosen?
The county issues a “Request for Proposal” which results in architectural firms submitting proposals for consideration. These proposals were reviewed and graded by a selection committee made up of employees from the Salt Lake County Division of Facilities Management, the library, a member of the volunteer library board, a county mayor appointee, Salt Lake County Division of Contracts and Procurement and other community members. The Magna Library programming and design was awarded to Cooper, Roberts, Simonson and Associates; the Herriman Library programming and design was awarded to EDA Architects.
