It is envisioned that the office will be occupied two to three (2-3) days per week with each of the different units being represented at least every other week, if not weekly. The office will be staffed by at least one team lead (or manager) and at least one other staff member. A regular schedule for days and hours of operation will be established and made available to the public.

The proposed location will also be utilized by 2nd District Supervisor, Estelle Fennell, as her new office, replacing her Americans with Disability Act (ADA) non-compliant office in Garberville as a reason for her move. Supervisor Fennell typically has office hours on Fridays. This shared use allows a complementary use of the office space.
