Preliminary designs for a project to significantly enlarge Health and Human Services’ West Marin Service Center in Point Reyes Station will come before the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, so it can provide county planners with direction on which of two design options they should pursue. The county has reduced the scale of both versions by about 800 square feet in response to local protest, but some still contest the expansion of the building—which will grow from about 3,175 square feet to about 5,250 square feet—in the residential neighborhood, arguing that it compromises community character. Inverness resident Wade Holland—who holds a seat on the county’s Planning Commission—has advised that the county ought to investigate whether the building could be relocated to nearby property currently owned by the Coast Guard, which the county hopes to purchase and set aside for affordable housing. “I think there’s a better option than trying to shoehorn it onto that lot that has reduced parking,” Mr. Holland said. “They have a viable option elsewhere in town, potentially.” The county has stressed the immediate need for additional space to accommodate more patients and a larger public waiting room, pointing out that the tight space presents serious privacy concerns for its patients.
