Short-term jail safety issues to cost $1 3 million to fix

Pitkin County commissioners on Tuesday approved $1.3 million in short-term fixes for the county jail to make it safer for inmates and employees. The fixes, however, will more than likely not be incorporated into long-term plans for the Pitkin County Jail, which officials have said needs to be completely gutted and re-designed or rebuilt elsewhere. “I hold out little hope that we can incorporate this fix into a new design,” said Board Chairwoman Kelly McNicholas Kury, who told her colleagues she’d been reading up on new jail designs and realized the current facility is very dated. Pitkin County sheriff’s deputies transferred all long-term jail inmates to the Garfield County Jail in March as part of a plan to upgrade safety measures at the 30-year-old jail. No inmates currently are kept at the jail for more than 48 hours and the jail’s work release program which allowed inmates to work during the day and report back at night was temporarily canceled.
