APR 17 <br />1985 <br />. BOOK <br />60 <br />two or <br />three people coming in every week and asking <br />questions, <br />and the people are pleased that the office is there, especially <br />because of problems with traffic during the winter season. The <br />Property Appraiser noted that he does not need much space, but <br />confirmed that he would be happy to chip in with the Sheriff.. <br />Commissioner Bird agreed this is a fine idea and felt staff <br />will need some time to check the market for space up there. He <br />did not want to obligate the county to.pay for a lot of square <br />footage we may not need, but believed we will need some space to <br />allow for growth. <br />Commissioner Wodtke noted that the Sheriff is ready to go <br />right now and wondered if he would need something more <br />sophisticated for communications. The Sheriff stated that he <br />would not. <br />Commissioner Wodtke stated that he envisioned we eventually <br />would need an Annex in the North County to cover most of our <br />County operations, possibly even a mini courtroom, but he agreed <br />there is a need now and felt possibly we will need a complete <br />North County branch much sooner than we have anticipated. He <br />felt perhaps we should authorize what Sheriff Dobeck is asking <br />for with the understanding that we need to take a long range look <br />at setting up something on a permanent basis - including voter <br />registration - social security - Commission meetings etc., and <br />felt possibly the post office with 3,000 sq. ft, might not be a <br />bad idea. <br />Vice Chairman Scurlock expressed concern about entering into <br />a long term lease at this point. He did agree the Sheriff's <br />request is reasonable and should be approved now and then <br />possibly we could have the Sheriff work with our staff and <br />develop an overall plan for the next budget year. <br />Sheriff Dobeck assured the Board that he will be glad to <br />work with staff or be part of a committee, and will participate <br />in whatever is planned. <br />45 <br />M <br />
