LAKEPORT, Calif. – Lake County Air Quality Management District is on the move – to a new headquarters.

Air Pollution Control Officer Doug Gearhart said the agency will move from 885 Lakeport Blvd. in Lakeport to its new location about a mile and a half away at 2617 S. Main St., on Monday, March 16.

Although the physical address is changing, Gearhart said the district's contact information remains the same, including its phone number, 707-263-7000, and fax, 707-263-0421.

The new location previously was home to Private Harvest, which had produced specialty foods products for several years before leaving the city.

The district purchased the building for $715,000, Gearhart said. The district's board of directors approved the purchase in October.

Gearhart said the district will have a grand opening sometime in the future, “as there is a lot of work still to complete.”
