Project Overview
Professional System Engineering, LLC (PSE) provided design, engineering, and consulting services for security and communications. The new $37 million, 85,000 SF facility houses 450 inmates including both male and female. This new facility has become the Command Center for county-wide security operations to act independently from the jail command center. The dual purpose of the facility is further defined by requiring two (2) separate command centers. One is dedicated to the correctional facility and the other serves county wide security operations. The building includes a courtroom, infirmary, receiving, processing, inmate storage, day rooms, dormitories, holding areas, sallyport, laundry room, kitchen, command center, visitor stations, and other secure correctional facility areas. The building houses the County Sheriff Administration functions to include offices, meeting room, multi-purpose room, employee gym, staff dining/break rooms, locker rooms, IT rooms, and storage areas.
