release list
of new sites
HUNTSVILLE (AP) — Prison of
ficials released a shortened list of
new state prison sites Wednesday,
but said further study and public
hearings are needed before any final
decisions are made.
Proposals from three cities and
five counties made the pared list of
10 sites, out of 33 Texas commu
nities that expressed interest in host
ing one or more new correctional
units, Texas Department of Correc
tions spokesman Charles Brown
said.
In addition, all land owned by the
state would be considered for the
new prisons, including sites in Hous
ton and Dallas, officials said.
“The sites will be further eval
uated by the TDC and forwarded to
the State Board of Corrections,”
Brown said. “These will be further
cut down” to fewer sites, he said.
Amarillo, Childress and Gatesville
were the cities included in the list
that had offered proposals. Falls,
Johnson, Liberty, Scurry and Tyler
counties were the counties offering
proposals that made the short list,
TDC spokesman Shelly Zent said.
TDC officials are considering con
struction of four 1,000-bed units
and as many as two 2,250-bed maxi
mum-security units. Voters are to
decide Nov. 3 whether to approve
bonds providing funds for construc
tion of the new prison sites.
“We definitely need the bed
space,” Brown said.
Factors considered in evaluating
the proposed sites include cost effec
tiveness, acreage, availability of ad
equate resources, educational oppor
tunities and medical care as well as
logistical and community support,
Brown said.
Public hearings concerning the se
lection of the sites will be held before
the board’s scheduled meeting Nov.
