The scope of work includes the necessary plumbing and construction work.
Recommendation No. 2 will authorize a Capital Improvement Project in the amount of $5,393,205 to convert an existing County-owned building in the City of Barstow into a multi-purpose rehabilitative facility that offers justice-involved adults the opportunity to engage in classes, treatment, or vocational programs.
