This project consists of a new five-story
county jail that was recently completed and renovation of certain areas of
the adjoining, existing historic courthouse. The design provides offices for
jail administration, housing with dayroom, visiting, pre-booking, booking,
kitchen, laundry, general and special storage, medical, video-arraignment,
segregation, exercise, vehicular sally port and other spaces or items as
were determined during the building program phase of the project. The
capacity of the jail is 280-300 beds.
Building construction includes all site
utilities, drives, sidewalks and parking to provide a complete and
functional facility. The design addressed expansion of the housing by
identifying the appropriate areas of expansion. The jail was designed in
accordance with the American Correction Association and Oklahoma Jail
Standards.
