Lacking confidential conference space. <br />2. There is a need for additional filing and storage space. <br />3 -5 Years <br />• Dependent on my BOCC and their goals and priorities. <br />• Same <br />County Attorney (Link Government Services Center) <br />No major issues. <br />3 -5 Years <br />• Departmental needs for legal services should not change much. <br />5 -10 Years <br />• There will be more digital interface. <br />Department of Environment, Aqriculture, Parks and Recreation (Environment and <br />Agriculture Center) <br />1. Located in a converted grocery with inadequate HVAC. <br />2. DEAPR staff in this building is in three physically- separated sections of the building, <br />which is a hindrance to workflow and administrative support. The Soil & Water District <br />section is undersized for its current staff and has very little support and storage areas, <br />with one FTE working in a carved -out section of the lobby. The present Soil & Water <br />offices are very small; in addition this division hosts a number of programs and could <br />benefit from a conference /staging area. Two staff members have to enter the main <br />building lobby to reach the rest of the offices because of a solid brick wall (original <br />design issue). <br />3. Nearly all of the work stations for DEAPR /Soil & Water are outdated and worn. Many <br />desks are 15 -25 years old and are not optimal for current -day needs. <br />4. Little consideration has been given to ergonomics. Storage is extremely inadequate for <br />the Soil & Water office. DEAPR purchased an outside pod approximately 15 years ago to <br />store equipment and files. A vacant office is currently used for storage, which is <br />adequate at present. <br />5. Department filing is inadequate for the Soil & Water division, adequate for other <br />sections. Soil and Water files require secure access and close location. <br />6. Personal workspace filing is inadequate for Soil & Water, generally adequate for others. <br />
