look inside a jail Monday when I went to
take a lour id the new Medina ( ounty Jail facility .
\immc who wonders why ill the world it costs so
much In build a jail, should wander over to the
building and take a look. The jail w ill he no lliltdh
lot those coin idnl of crimes. But seeing the type
iilXccrtwily which is required, I can understand
win the costs arc so high. When the jail is
completed it should comply with all of the
requirements set forth by the Jail Standard
( ommissinn Sheriff ( ampsey said that about
lid percent of the 2.81 counties in Texas have jails
which meet the requirements. Before reconstruc-
tion began on the facility, our county jail failed to
meet Irom Mil to Hill Jail Commission standards
OPTIMIST PRKSIDFM
Jim While called ..Monday to say that the
response from the Ml kilometer fitness run held at
Museum Day was so positive, they are planning
one lor Museum Day , 19X2. The fi.2 mile race was
open to all men. women and children. So get your
jogging shoes oil, and start preparing-vou have a
little less than Jffift days!
as 28.” he added
According to state jail
standards, the facility must
allow 49 square feet per
inmate The existing jail
facility was constructed in
the 1940's to hold 2ii m
mates Since that time,
how e\ or. standards have be
mint stricter, resulting in
the lad's noncompliance wilh
the 49 square leet require
men!
In addition to having
spam tor more prisoners and
more area per prisoner, the
jail will provide separate
