REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
On December 20, 1988, the Board accepted a process for naming the new jail
in Richmond. As a result, the County solicited suggestions from the
Mayors, City Managers and Police Chiefs of the five West County cities. A
similar request for suggestions was made to the West County Justice Center
Advisory Group members. The County received seven responses, three
recommending that the facility be known as the West County Justice Center,
three recommending that the facility be known as the West County Detention
Facility and one recommending that the site be known as the West County
Justice Center with the facility to be known as the West County Detention
Facility. In order to maintain a "Center" concept, thus allowing for other
justice facilities such as a municipal court or Sheriff ' s substation, the
entrance sign would identify the site as the West County Justice Center.
The individual facilities ' name would then be listed separately on the
entrance sign and again on each building respectively.
