The work of the Committee contributed to the successful completion of that facility. We believe that citizen input in the design and construction phases of the proposed West County Justice Center Project is important in order to assure that the new facility will address the County's detention and corrections needs and also serve the community in which it is located. The Sheriff's Department has had a number of community meetings in West County in recent months soliciting input on the proposed West County Justice Center. Widespread interest has been expressed by city officials, as well as neighborhood and community groups, in participating in an advisory group. The magnitude of the project and the diversity of agencies and groups with 'a significant interest in the facility require the broad-based advisory group proposed herein. The Correctional and Detention Services Advisory Commission has participated in the development of this report and strongly supports the recommendation. 1. Purpose The purpose of the Advisory Group is to provide, through a collaborative effort, advice to the Board of Supervisors regarding the design and construction process of the new West County Justice Center, with the understanding that all final decisions regarding said facility are the responsibility of the Board.
