Construction on the Deltona Regional Library expansion
is underway. The LEC is being constructed as part of the Deltona
Regional Library expansion and is expected to be completed in September,
2009.
The City of Deltona has partnered with Volusia County to
build an amphitheater as part of the Deltona Regional Library complex.
The Deltona City Commission has contributed $2 million toward the
expansion project and will pay $250,000 a year for 10 years to help with
maintenance and operating costs. The amphitheater will be available
for educational programs, music, plays, and community gatherings.
The library expansion and environmental learning center
will be "green". The County will apply for Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) certification from the U.S. Green Building
Council to certify the building. Additionally, the landscaping will
incorporate Florida native plants that thrive in local conditions and
require less maintenance and no supplemental irrigation once established.
