Abstract
Introduction & Background: Aging Services in Siler City is outgrowing it’s current facility. To accommodate their increased client base and needs for meal services, the County wants to hire a Hopkins Bowling to perform Design/Build services to renovate the existing space allowing for better flow and use for the clients and staff and to increase the meal capabilities in the kitchen.
