Board studies costs for remodel or new jail facility
The enlarged County Board court house and jail committee ordered cost estimates for remodeling the present jail and for a proposed new building on 17th avenue. Officials weighed state requirements and boarding costs against remodeling, with state corrections officials cautioning against assuming a new jail is needed. Architect plans presented outlined two layouts for a 17th avenue jail, including a T shaped plan with living quarters and a 12 cell block, and a second plan with slight shifts in the garage and block placement.
