Closing some of the older areas like Eyman, they’ll still have the big SMU unit.
What’s screwed up is the town now wants to raise our utility rates to make up for lost revenue from ASP shutting them down. |

Eyman isn't closing, not even close, as two of the three "modern" max custody units are here. Florence Complex is closing slowly, two units are empty right now. Central Unit is the oldest and will be converted into a museum when finally emptied out - I recommend taking the tour when it's available, interesting place. Cell Block 2 opened in 1930. We do not have a timetable available on when this is going to be done.
This was announced by the Governor some time ago, so it's not a hush hush thing, as he wants that feather in his hat of reducing the prison population enough to close and entire prison complex. I do have to say our population HAS been steadily decreasing over several years, and this will work if done right. |

I was under the impression that they're closing some of the older non Eyman complex Florence units due to age issues and shifting the staff in an effort to actually fully staff an AzDOC unit for once.

My mistake on the name, apologies.
Never worked there so I guess I was wrong. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: My mistake on the name, apologies. Never worked there so I guess I was wrong. Most people really have no idea how many actual prisons/detention centers are in this town.  Eyman units are all relatively new compared to Florence, with the exception of CB6/Kasson. We would love to get the staff over here, to be certain. |

I used to go to ASP to interview inmates to determine alien status for deportation.
Plus used their newest maximum security facility that’s way out there before it opened to train my TIAC teams on force cell extractions. That place is huge. |

ASP? We go by ASPC, for Arizona State Prison Complex, or are you talking about the ICE facility? Just curious.
Our newest max is Rast in Lewis. It is the only lock down I have never worked. |

Didn’t realize the C was that important to some of you, hell, every CO I’ve ever talked to before you has just called it ASP as well. |

Didn't mean to strike a nerve amigo, was just asking.
 In 20 years I'd only seen ASP on the pillars on the traffic gate at Florence Complex, never heard any of the Complexes called that, worked both Eyman and Florence over the years. No big deal.

I got two job offers there, one in '07, one in '19. Wished I'd taken one of those offers but at the time I was working in CoreCivic and felt like I had a better deal there. When that museum opens I'm going to go for sure, other than a few trips to Eyman and to Central for transfers I drove past the the state places and always wanted to go check them out. |

Yeah I retired out of there.
Wasn’t a bad gig, but I bailed as soon as it looked like Obama was going to win, I knew where it was headed. |
