Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 125-1-3-.01 - 1999 County Workcamp Construction Grants Program
(a)
Purpose of Program. The
purpose of the 1999 County Workcamp Construction Grants Program is for the
Georgia Department of Corrections to contract with Georgia county governments
to provide increased capacity for State prison inmates in county correctional
institutions. The objective is to increase statewide capacity by at least 1,500
beds over current levels. This will provide more inmate workers for pubic
[public] works at the municipal and county levels while increasing the overall
capacity for housing State inmates.
(b)
Terms and conditions. The
contracts awarded shall not exceed $26,500,000.00 in total. Counties will be
awarded funds for one hundred percent of construction costs for additional
State inmate beds. Kitchen and laundry support functions for these beds will be
funded as remaining funds permit. "Additional State inmate beds" is defined as
any proposed beds for State inmates additional to the current State capacity as
of March 5, 1999. Funds shall be awarded only for the purpose of physical
expansion of capacity, either by renovation of existing housing or by
construction of new housing; no funds will be awarded for operating expenses.
Any county receiving funds must agree to assign State inmates to the funded
beds, provided the Department of Corrections has State inmates to be so
assigned, effective for ten (10) years from date of inmate occupancy. The Rules
and Regulations of the State Board of Corrections and the authority of the
Commissioner, Georgia Department of Corrections, will apply to the management
and use of the increased capacity.
(c)
Eligible Recipients. County
governments within the State of Georgia which currently operate correctional
institutions.
(d)
Criteria

higher priority, a county government must offer a more favorable combination of
the following criteria:
1. soonest completion
date;
2. economy of project;
3. greatest number of additional
beds;
4. completeness of
application. Contracts will then be awarded in order of priority, up to the
