The building will accomniodate the existing staff of 42 but will cornfortably accommodate the prjected staff of 75 by 1998. The several features which highlight the building will make it functional for niany- years te corne. In the expanded public service area, there will be 16 self-serve microfilm reader printers, six coin- operated photocopy machines, 10 outgoing phones and 10 incoming phones. Operators handling incoming caîls will be hired by the usera of the systemn ( the freelance con- veyancers), rather than be employees of the registry office. MacKay says that's because the freelance convey'ancers con- sider the office as "their office" and have the registry phone nurober on their business carda. There will be four public waah- roorns, two staff washrooms, a first aid roorn with a couch, sink and first-aid equiprnent, and locker facilities for public use. «There will be a closing area where lawyers meet to compare documents immediately prior to registration,» says MacKay. He says it is a private place where the can negotiate. There will be two main entrances, one on the -north and one on the east side. The parking area will accommodate 200 cars.
