San Juan County civic campus plan virtual open house and survey | Update

Submitted by San Juan County

San Juan County is exploring options to centralize government operations in a new efficient and community-centered civic campus building located near the courthouse in Friday Harbor. A design team has developed a concept that was informed by the first public survey in March 2018, as well as discussions with county staff who would be providing services in the new building. A new building would consolidate the operations of nine different county departments that are currently housed in five different buildings.

Virtual Open House: At the Aug. 21 county council meeting, the county’s contracted architect, Miller Hull Partnership, LLP, performed an online presentation of a conceptual design for a new civic campus building. Miller Hull’s virtual open house presentation can be viewed here. Also, a link to the executive summary document is located here.

Community Survey: Staff are asking community members to review the draft conceptual design information (virtual open house and executive summary document) and provide input through a public survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SanJuanCounty2. The survey has been extended through Sept. 12. Individual responses will be kept confidential.
