The Board of County Commissioners thereupon recessed <br />for lunch at 1:0.0 o'clock P.M. and reconvened at 2:30 <br />O'clock P.M. with the same members present, Commissioner <br />Wodtke and Chairman Bird being out of state on vacation. <br />PRESENTATION RE PROPOSED CRIMINAL JUSTICE COMPLEX <br />Commissioner Lyons reviewed his memo of September 28, <br />1983, as follows: <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Board of County Commissioners— <br />FROM: Patrick B. Lyons, Chairman <br />Facility Committee <br />DATE: September 28, 1983 <br />SUBJECT: Justice Complex <br />At the meeting held on September 23, 1983 with <br />- representatives of the Public Safety Advisory Committee, the <br />Facility Committee, Administrator, Attorney, Architects and <br />representatives of nearly all the organizations involved in the <br />court system, it became clear that we "should not refer to the new <br />complex, which includes the jail, as the "Criminal Justice <br />Complex". Probably the best name is the "Justice Complex". It <br />was the majority opinion at the meeting that until it became <br />necessary to move all the courts to a new location, the County <br />Court function could best be separated for a move to an interim <br />or new location. However, everyone was in agreement to <br />immediately provide a first appearance courtroom at the new jail. <br />Ideally, all courts should be at one location as we should plan <br />to ultimately provide space for all of them at the jail site. <br />As a result of the reports and discussion, the joint <br />membership of the Facility Committee and Public Safety Advisory <br />Committee made certain recommendations which are reproduced <br />elsewhere in this.packet. I would like to make recommendations <br />which are somewhat more specific than theirs and are believed <br />consistent with theirs. <br />The architects be authorized to master plan the jail site to <br />provide a jail with first appearance court, sheriff's offices and <br />a court facility with 2h county courtrooms for immediate <br />occupancy and a court facility for all courts in the year 2000. <br />The architects be authorized to proceed with the schematic <br />design phase of the contract for the jail, the sheriff's office <br />and a 2h courtroom county court facility. <br />65 <br />0 CT 5198 �e K w s90 <br />
