The Probation Department’s current Bishop Street facility (Casa Loma) was built in 1940 and is outdated, in need of constant repair, short on space and ill-suited for the needs of the Probation Department. The project will accomplish several objectives important to the County and the Probation Department, including:

• Resolve significant inefficiencies of the current, outdated main facility.
• Accommodate future departmental growth.
• Consolidate departmental functions to allow shared operations and reduce intradepartmental travel.
• Upgrade the department's physical infrastructure and systems to contemporary state of the art.
• Improve convenience and access for public clients.

Construction is expected to begin in late Spring 2024 and continue through early 2026.

The standard hours of operation for construction activity will take place on normal workdays and be within the working hours of 7:00 am to 6:00 pm.  The Contractor is required to conduct all Work in a manner that does not interfere with or disrupt County and adjacent property operations. At a minimum, the Contractor shall make every effort to minimize the levels of noise, vibration, dirt, dust, molds, fumes, odors and similar items to the extent possible and in accordance with all local ordinances or other agency regulations. Site monitoring protocols will also be required during non-construction hours, weekends, and holidays to assure dust is controlled at all times for the duration of the project.

Yes, connectivity between Bishop and Fixilini Streets through the campus will remain open and accessible throughout the construction period, per the below site diagram.
