Klein McCarthy Architects was initially commissioned in 2019 to study options to expand the Cass County Jail intake area. The goal of the study was to provide additional holding cells, visitation rooms, expand the booking desk and add dedicated court transfer cells. Cass County hired KMA to execute the result of the study in 2020. The project was bid in early 2021 and is currently planned for completion in September 2022.
The design solution provides an addition for a new vehicle sallyport and remodel within the existing sallyport and intake area. The remodeled space provides two contact visitation rooms, one non-contact visitation room, four booking stations, three intake stations, inmate waiting, six additional holding cells, inmate transfer cells as well as dedicated interview and in rooms.
The project will be completed in two phases to allow full occupation during construction.
