Demolition, site work and addition to a mixed-use development in North Ogden, Utah. Conceptual plans call for the addition of a 225-bed detention facility; and 24,111-square-foot, 48-bed medical facility.

A new section with 48 beds for inmates with mental health and other medical issues would be added to the northeastern section of the sheriff’s office facilities: 32 for male inmates, 16 for female inmates. As is, the existing jail, completed in 2000, contains six medical cells. Weber Justice Center: The four-story Weber Justice Center, which would be built on county-owned land on the southwestern corner of 12th Street and Depot Drive, would contain 225 beds for minimum-security inmates, both male and female. The structure would sit north of the Weber Valley Juvenile Detention Center, which sits north of the existing sheriff’s office. The facility would house work-release programming and contain space for social workers from “allied agencies.” Those social workers would work with inmates on a range of issues, aiming to prepare them for life outside the jail. Administration offices in the existing sheriff’s office structure would be given over to jail expansion and shifted to the new building, measuring around 110,000 square feet. Patrol officers and investigators would likewise move from the old building to the new one. On August 22, 2023 Weber County Board of County Commissioners approved a resolution for the placement of a $98M bond proposal on the November 21, 2023 ballot. On November 21, 2023, voters rejected the bond proposal. As of January 11, 2024, the County has indicated that the project will not be moving forward at this time.
