Facilities Manager Roger Howard reported that construction documents are complete. The new 4,400 square foot facility will provide space for Skagit County Community Action, Skagit County Public Health, Skagit Upriver Services, Skagit County Commissioners Satellite Office and the Upper Skagit Library District Office. "This new facility will be an incredible asset to the East Skagit County community," said Commissioner Ted Anderson. The total cost of the project is $1,247,350, with $940,500 of that total being funded by a State of Washington Community Trade and Economic Development Grant and a Community Development Block Grant. The Town of Concrete contributed $15,200, with the balance of $291,600 covered by Skagit County. "This project is a great collaborative effort by the entire community, Skagit County, and the State of Washington. This will be an invaluable community asset for generations to come," said Anderson.
