Background
This move is part of a multi-year comprehensive facilities plan aimed at maximizing our existing space, co-locating forward-facing departments to improve the resident experience, and reducing the number of unnecessary properties from our portfolio. This move will save taxpayer dollars, allows for properties to be used to address housing needs, and reimagines how the County’s public-facing departments meet the needs of our community.
