BACKGROUND:

The San Diego County Administration Center is a prime example of American civic center architecture built in the 1936-1938 time period and has been honored by the National Register of Historic Places.  As the seat of County government, the CAC is available and open to the public in order to participate in County government and access County services.

 

The Board has previously identified the need to establish design standards for County facilities that set forth appropriate techniques, materials and technology to improve public accessibility, energy performance, resource utilization, and the work environment.

 

The proposed policy will ensure that the unique and historical characteristics of the County Administration Center will be preserved for future generations by establishing design guidelines and coordination of all proposed renovation projects.

 

Linkage to the County of San Diego Strategic Plan

The proposed recommendations will support the Environment and Safe & Livable Communities initiatives in the County’s 2007-2012 Strategic Plan.  By implementing this policy, the County can ensure that the historic nature of the County Administration Center is preserved and protected, enriching the quality of life for workers at, and visitors to the seat of County government.
