The new facility combines improved efficiency and safety while planning for future expansion and minimizing environmental impact. The addition will consolidate detention services that are presently located in three separate facilities, including booking, open intake, City/County Bureau of Identification, medical clinic and infirmary, academic services, food service, laundry, and warehouse. The new booking and open intake program will include identification, magistrates, inmate property storage, and transfer. As a multi-use facility, the role of identification in booking and open intake as well as administration space and forensic labs were incorporated, creating an efficient and safe criminal justice facility that will be well received by the citizens of Wake County as innovative, responsible, and forward thinking. Selected for inclusion in the Justice Facilities Review 2009.
