County asks departments to centralize requests for occupied office or storage space in Health Services Building

Board staff requested that departments direct all requests for occupied office space or storage in the Health Services Building to a single contact to simplify decision‑making.

Aaron, a board staff member, asked departments to include specific details in their requests: what type of space is needed (office vs. storage), estimated gross square footage, and any environmental or electrical needs such as refrigeration for vaccine storage. He said centralizing requests will help staff match needs to available space and coordinate with facilities and other offices, particularly as the board office prepares to relocate to the Third Floor.

The board office said it will gather submissions and involve relevant offices such as facilities and the liaison who manages the Health Services Building once a set of requests is ready for decision. No formal reassignments or leases were approved at the meeting; the discussion was framed as a process reminder and request for complete information so staff can evaluate space needs efficiently.
