In addition, the project includes several facilities that will operate outside the YTC: o A 24-bed Long-Term Housing Unit to be operated as part of Juvenile Hall o A Classroom / Library Building for use by Juvenile Hall o Ten (10) Independent Living Units providing twenty (20) beds of supportive housing for males and females, and associated program space for youth transitioning out of Juvenile Hall, YLA and YTC. This facility will be located outside the secure perimeter. The total project is estimated at approximately 88,000 gross square feet of new building area and includes site access, new parking areas, outdoor recreation and landscape development and connections to existing Juvenile Hall systems and infrastructure. To create a clear area for construction of new facilities, the project includes demolition of several occupied and unoccupied buildings, perimeter security fencing, site amenities and landscaping. The campus has many mature trees that Orange County wishes to keep, and this should be taken into consideration during planning and design. All new facilities should be aesthetically pleasing with ample access to natural light and outdoor spaces. Integrated outdoor space should be available for programs, learning, recreational and leisure activities. New facilities and site development should be reminiscent of modern college and high school campus design with a cohesive material, color, and landscape palette used throughout. New buildings should look non-institutional and welcoming and provide youth and staff with spaces that feel natural, calm, and comforting. YTC should be designed with a sense of freedom and openness while still providing all the necessary features of a modern, secure juvenile facility. The use of institutional fencing and razor-wire is highly discouraged. The project should use the design and organization of new buildings, new landscape and new hardscape features to provide visual and physical separation between the YTC facility and Juvenile Hall. To the greatest extent possible, design of YTC should not rely on the use of permanent fencing, access control or gates to provide required facility separation.
