F4
"The District Board recognizes their current office space is too small for some meetings." Response: On December 28, 2011, MCCSD acquired a two acre parcel in Mendocino to build a District office and storage building. One of the features of the building is a meeting room large enough for public meetings (see attached conceptual plan). The room will seat the five person Board of Directors, staff, and an audience of thirty persons, and will be Americans with Disabilities Act compliant. The project has been delayed four years while the Mendocino Town Plan is being updated. Mendocino County Planning and Building has recently placed the District's project on a separate track to re-zone the parcel to Public Facility zoning. Once the site is re-zoned, MCCSD will pursue necessary funding and building permits.
