New commissioners speed jail timetable

AUBURN — Attitudes of the DeKalb County Commissioners toward a new jail have changed in three short years.
In March 2018, the commissioners told former Sheriff Don Lauer, “It’s going to be at least 8-10 years before you’re going to have a jail built.”
After discussions about building a new jail over the preceding two years, county officials had decided instead to build only a new Community Corrections center at the west edge of Auburn.
Commissioners told Lauer three years ago that construction of a new jail was not likely to begin until 2025 or 2026 at the earliest.
The commissioners correctly predicted that a new jail would be built next to the Community Corrections center. That is the site discussed in Tuesday’s meeting of county officials to plan for building a new jail in 2022.
