The Chief of Police officially notified the BSCC that the facility was now a Temporary Holding and that much of the facility would be shuttered indefinitely. All areas other than Pre-Booking and Booking are not being used to hold persons. The housing units are all being used for storage or other uses. 2025-2026 Cycle: Confirmed that all housing units are not being used to house persons in custody. The rated capacity of the facility has been adjusted to reflect the temporary holding status of the facility. *T = Toilets; U = Urinals; W = Wash Basins; F = Fountains; S = Showers in unit; If "Total RC" appears in brackets ( ), it is not part of the facility's rated capacity.
