The Lee Drain Building will be undergoing a major renovation of its first floor beginning November 10, 2020. The renovation is expected to last until June 2021. Access for individuals with disabilities will be impacted during this timeframe. During the renovation, all first floor entrances will be closed and the elevator will also terminate at the second floor. Temporary ramps will be installed at the north (main) entrance and the southwest side of Bearkat Plaza to facilitate easier access to the building.

Please consult the MAP for the best route to enter and exit the building during construction.
