Article 2. Jails In Other Counties of California Government Code >> Division 2. >> Title 3. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 5. >> Article 2.
Pursuant to this article, the board of supervisors may
purchase, receive by donation, lease, or otherwise acquire real or
personal property in another county necessary for the use of the
county for a jail.
No purchase of real property shall be made unless a notice
of the intention of the board to make the purchase is published for
at least three weeks prior to the purchase in a newspaper of general
circulation published in the county where the property is to be
occupied. If no newspaper is published in the county, the notice
shall be posted at least three weeks prior to the time the board
meets to consummate the purchase in at least three public places in
each supervisorial district in which the property is situated. The
notice shall contain a description of the property proposed to be
purchased, the price, the vendor, and a statement of the time when
the board will meet to consummate the purchase.
The board may construct, lease, build, rebuild, furnish,
refurnish, or repair the jail, and provide all necessary offices,
employees, attendants, and supplies for its proper maintenance.
The consent of the board of supervisors of the county in
which the jail is to be situated shall be first obtained and filed
with the board.
All persons adjudged guilty of an offense punishable by
imprisonment in the county jail, may be confined in such jail located
in another county to the same extent as if it were located in the
county having jurisdiction of the offense.
