V. BID PACKAGE 3 A. RECEPTION/SEGREGATION UNIT ("B" BUILDING) 1. BUILDING DESCRIPTION General "B" Building is a 53,000 square foot former living facility currently used for a combination of office, dormitory and industry space. The scope of this project is to add a secure vehicle sallyport and to convert portions of the existing building for intake, visiting and segregation housing functions. Vehicle Sallyport This part of the project consists of a 2,450 square foot addition to the north end of "B" Building. Provided is a 20' wide by 50' long drive-thru sallyport, large enough to accommodate two vans or police vehicles, an ambulance, or school bus. The vehicle sallyport is connected to "B" Building by a 64' long link, which allows staff, inmates and public visitors to securely pass through the perimeter fence. Also provided is locked equipment storage for the Emergency Response Team, who would assemble in the vehicle sallyport before entering the secure perimeter, and a utility closet for storage of hoses and vehicle cleaning supplies. Security is provided by interlocked vehicle doors at either end of the sallyport and secure personnel doors at both ends of the link, operated by Central Control. Control observes the sallyport and its approaches by means of security cameras, and has a direct view of both the staff and public corridors. Visiting Unit The visiting unit will occupy 3,300 square feet of currently vacant industry space in the northeast corner of "B" Building. It provides nine secure, non -contact visiting booths for segregation residents and space for up to 30 "contact" visits in an informal lounge setting. Two search rooms provide secure access for residents to the contact visiting room, and two professional visiting rooms provide space for authorized private visits. An open staff work station provides for direct supervision of the visiting area. Central Control has direct views of the public waiting room and non -contact visiting area, and controls access for both public and residents. The waiting room has a phone, drinking fountain, coin-operated lockers and adjacent public toilet rooms. Visitors must pass through a metal detector before being permitted entry into the visiting area. Page 46
