Project overview
Vanir was hired by San Benito County after it had experienced several years of delays related to a much-needed jail expansion. Our team was brought on board to provide construction management services. We provided a clear roadmap to expeditiously proceed with the new building, located adjacent to the original facility and connected via a secure breezeway. Having managed the construction of the original jail that was completed in 1992, Vanir was honored to be pursued for this critical expansion. The facility includes:
- Inmate Housing (two-story housing unit, 72 beds): Includes dayroom, shower and storage spaces; indoor/outdoor recreation areas; a control room; two multi-purpose classrooms; and a staff restroom
- Medical Services Suite: Includes a doctor’s/nurse’s office, exam room, inmate waiting area, supply room and janitorial storage
- Intake and Release Suite: Consists of a booking area, holding cells, dress-out stations, an exterior sallyport and vehicle turnaround driveway, officer’s lobby, offices, public entrance and waiting room, restrooms and a visitation room
