UPDATE ON PLANS FOR RENOVATION OF JAIL AND LAW ENFORCEMENT CENTER: John Duncan and Paul Balsow
were present from J. N. Pease and Company, the architectural firm retained by the County to do the
jail and law enforcement center plans. Mr. Duncan diswssed changes that have occurred since they
last presented plans to the county. They presented Schemes 1, 2, 2A, 3, and 4, showing different
ways the construction could be handled. Pease just completed Robeson County's project which cost
$7.2 million for 400+ beds.
Following Pease's presentation, the board welcomed Cleveland County Chairman and County Mana-
ger, who were also accompanied by the architect on their project. They built an 68 -bed facility,
consisting of 44 cells at a cost of $2.5 million. They used a modular -type construction because of
economic reasons and speed of construction. For another $1 million, they could add 166 additional
beds. They had no land costs. This is a two-story project.
Staffing at the present is 11. When completed they will need 12 additional people in the jail
which will be a total of 23 people. Cleveland County was able to pass a general obligation bond
issue to pay for the facility. The bond was for schools and general government, of which the jail
was a part. The county manager passed around some of their promotional materials for the bond
issue.
