  6. Strategic Plan • Bookings are up by 8% over last year • 8% rise in bookings equates to over 300 more inmates in our Avg. Daily Pop. • Average Length of Stay (ALOS) has risen by a half-day, adding over 80 inmates • We continue to examine sub populations that may be driving the rise in ALOS

  7. Strategic Plan • Historically, two large sub-groups have had major impact on population • Mentally ill inmates • Probation violators • Mentally ill inmates who are sentenced to jail are staying much longer • Probation violators are waiting much longer for their first substantive hearing

  8. Strategic Plan • Our population today is 4,670 • Jail population projected to reach 6,400 by 2016 • Current design capacity is 4,107 • That equates to a need for about 2,300 new beds in the next 8 years.

  9. Strategic Plan • Addressing the challenges • Internal staff group meeting on the project • Corrections, Facilities Management, Capital Projects and others as needed • A large number of issues to be addressed
