Previous notes:
This facility was originally built in 1998 by a private company and was used as a Community Corrections Facility (CCF),
holding state inmates. San Bernardino purchased the facility and began renovating the facility in July 2005. The facility began
holding inmates January 2006.
Alternate Means of Compliance (AMC)
On 3/8/2007, an AMC was granted to increase the RC in eight of the dorms (Dorms 1A, 1B, 1E, 1F, 2A, 2B, 2E, 2F) to allow
70 inmates. Conditions of the AMC limited the population in those dormitories to low and medium-security inmates. Rated
capacity increased to 706.
An expansion project funded in part by an award from AB 900 Phase 1 added Housing Units 3-8, a Support Building with
male and female intake areas, and remodeled areas within the original facility. Each of the six new housing units have a
rated capacity of 232 for a total increase of 1392. The total RC is now 2098. The expansion project was completed in
February 2014.
ORIGINAL FACILITY (as opened in July 2005)
Adelanto Detention Center was not originally a booking facility but had an intake and marshaling area. The expansion project
includes separate male and female intake areas and is noted later in this LASE.

Notes: The lower floor of this unit has nine single occupancy cells. The ceiling height is 7’1” at the fire suppression sprinkler
and 7’4” at two 16” wide structural beams that pass through each of the cells. These cells will be used for storage and appear
on the LASE as unrated space for historical purposes. There are two other rooms off this unit that had been cells prior to the
remodel – they will not be used and are not listed on the LASE as their condition and placement make them unusable for
detention purposes. There is a shower in this area that may be used and is included in the LASE count.
Notes: During 2011 Inspection, these nine unrated single cells were being used to house federal-contract inmates.
