What research has been done to determine the needs for additional jail capacity?
All of the King County cities participated in a long-term jail needs study in 2006. This study is known as the Ricci-Greene Study. The study suggested that two sub-regional jails be constructed. The study revealed that 1,440 beds would be needed by all the cities by 2026. Of the 1,440 beds, 700 of them are needed in South King County. After the Ricci-Greene Study was completed, the SCORE cities completed a separate feasibility study to determine if the cities could provide equivalent jail services at a reduced cost. The feasibility study revealed that SCORE could provide the same services at a reduced rate, benefiting the tax payers of the SCORE cities.
