County Community Service Center to locate at "Town Center" in North Highlands
Rio Linda Elverta News June 3, 2004

by Jay O'Brien

The Sacramento County Board of Supervisors, with a unanimous vote Tuesday, June 1, approved the selection of the "Town Center", in North Highlands at 6015 Watt Avenue, as the location for the County's first Community Service Center. The Community Service Center will serve Rio Linda, Elverta, North Highlands, Foothill Farms, and Antelope.

The two other locations under consideration were next door to the Sheriff's Service Center at Watt and U Street and the County's corporation yard at Elkhorn and Don Julio.

The Sheriff may move the present Sheriff's service center on Watt Avenue at U Street nearly two miles south on Watt Avenue, to Town Center in North Highlands. First District Supervisor Roger Dickinson said, "I have spoken to the Sheriff directly, and the Sheriff is in fact interested in moving to co-locate at the Town Center."

The North Area Service Center will provide a location where building permits may be obtained, code enforcement assistance provided, and in general to be a neighborhood access point to County government. The functions now performed by the North Highlands Community Area Service Team (NORCAST) will be included and expanded. NORCAST is presently managed by Sacramento County's Mark Manoff.
