The overall condition of the jail is well maintained given its age. However, as indicated by Public Works staff, Department of Public Works (DPW) receives frequent call outs for maintenance requiring a lot of attention as the facility is beyond its useful life. Additionally, the current facility is not ADA compliant. The construction of the new Civic Center in Mammoth Lakes caused a shift in construction priorities, resulting in the jail construction being postponed. While there is a time limit for completion of the construction, (see the timeline in BSCC Grant application) Mono County Public Works indicates it is working with the BSCC to coordinate extensions, so the grant is not lost. However, the longer the delay the more the costs of construction will likely increase, and changes may need to be made in the overall plan to fit within the grant and matching funds budget.
