The first three department moves complete Phase I renovations of the Kalapuya Building, which began in June 2021. Phase II construction is on schedule to begin in a few weeks and is on track to be completed in June. Upon completion, the Finance, Information Technology, Human Resources, Community Development and Environmental Health Departments are scheduled to move into the Kalapuya Building.
In December 2019, County Administrator Joe Kerby first proposed the acquisition of a facility in Corvallis to co-locate County public services, and in January 2020, the Board of Commissioners approved the purchase of the 4500 Research Way building, which has since been renamed the Kalapuya Building.
The relocation of County departments begins to address initial reasons for the County’s purchase that included addressing critical space needs and the centralizing of customer services in a convenient and accessible location. The Kalapuya Building will also provide improved community member access and service to the public; it is located within a quarter mile of the County’s Sunset Building, and the physical size of the facility advances the County’s vision of a one-stop-shop customer service center. Additionally, the moves will provide co-location of customer-facing departments, ample parking for the public, operational efficiencies and stewardship of tax dollars.
