AN OPEN HOUSE OF THE NEW, MALE INMATE FACILITY AT THE LEWIS COUNTY JAIL IS SCHEDULED FOR TODAY FROM 4 TO 6. THE PUBLIC IS INVITED TO TOUR THE FACILITY LOCATED AT 437 SWAN AVENUE IN HOHENWALD AND MEET THE STAFF OF THE JAIL. THE NEW ADDITION IS THE RESULT OF A DIRECTIVE FROM THE STATE BACK IN 2018, WHEN THE TENNESSEE CORRECTIONS INSTITUTE (TCI) INFORMED LEWIS COUNTY THAT IT WAS SCHEDULED TO LOSE ITS JAIL CERTIFICATION FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY DUE TO “NO MEASURABLE PROGRESS” REGARDING YEARS OF OVERCROWDING AND SEGREGATION ISSUES AMONG ITS INMATES. WHEN THE PROJECT BEGAN LEWIS COUNTY WAS ABLE TO SECURE A GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE OF $6.7 MILLION FOR THE PROPOSED PROJECT. THEY WERE ALSO ABLE TO LOCK-IN AN INCREDIBLY LOW INTEREST RATE OF JUST 1.927% ON A 30-YEAR BOND. THE JAIL ADDITION IS EXPECTED TO OFFICIALLY OPEN THIS FALL.
