Public Safety Information

TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT:

Interested Persons Tony M. McClung July 19, 2002 County Jail Report - July 2002

Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Information Report for July 2002. This report reflects the inmate population on Thursday, July 4, 2002.
Towns and Union County have shared a joint jail facility for years. In late June, Union County opened a new jail facility (54 beds). Later this month, Towns County is planning to open their new detention facility. Consequently, there are now 149 functional county jails. In July, all 149 of the functional county jails provided inmate information. This represents 100 percent of the county jails reporting and 100 percent of the State's population.
In addition to Union County, Columbia County also opened a new jail facility. Columbia County now has a capacity of 280 inmates. Hence, the capacity of all county jails increased by 243 beds to 33,312.
Since January 2000, the county jail capacity has increased by 4,898 beds. Furthermore, the following 29 counties are in the process of building new detention facilities or adding to their current facilities: Banks, Berrien, Brooks, Cherokee, Catoosa, Fayette, Fannin, Habersham, Heard, Houston, Jefferson, Liberty, Lowndes, Lumpkin, Madison, Muscogee, Oglethorpe, Newton, Oconee, Polk, Rabun, Screven, Stephens, Taylor, Towns, Upson, Walton, Wayne, and Whitfield. McIntosh County's new jail has been completed for several months; however, the jail has not opened because of inadequate staffing. Meanwhile, Rockdale County has completed their jail addition but have delayed the opening because of the difficulty recruiting jail staff.
This month, the number of inmates held in county jails increased by 29 inmates to 30,129. This is the highest number of inmates ever held in county jails.

*This figure does not include jails at 100% or that would exceed 100% if not for the boarding out of inmates. Since the purpose of this report is to count the total number of inmates housed in county jails, there are no provisions in this report to separately count the number of inmates sent to other facilities for housing. Rather, each county reports only on the number of inmates held in their facility on the first Tuesday of the month. Inmates that are sent elsewhere for housing are counted by the facility housing those inmates.
