It houses the Department of Environment, Agriculture, Parks and Recreation (DEAPR), Cooperative <br />Extension, Soil and Water. the Farm Services Agency, a Federal support agency for the agriculture community as well as provides a space for managed <br />records storage for county departments. Emergency Medical Services, Base #1 occupies a separate building on the site. Funding for this project will allow <br />parking lots to be resurfaced and site drainage issues addressed. The parking areas, vintage from the days in which the building was used as a grocery store <br />prior to the County's acquisition in the late 1980'x, continue to break apart with age and use. Frequent use by heavier vehicles, such as ambulances <br />accelerates the deterioration as well <br />• • • 13 <br />
