San Luis Facility Development Corporation — October 21, 2026
The facility is heading into a court-supervised receivership and sale. The board's resolution clears the legal path — approving how revenues from the sale get applied and preserving the operator's ability to terminate its management agreement once the deal closes.
San Luis Facility Development Corporation — October 15, 2026
Bondholders are moving the detention facility toward a potential sale through a court receivership process. The board's authorization lets a receiver be appointed to handle that sale — a major step in determining the facility's future ownership.
San Luis Facility Development Corporation — June 23, 2026
The detention facility's operator, LaSalle Corrections, has been losing money — about $4 million in the hole last year — and warned it couldn't keep absorbing losses. The new deal extends the forbearance until April 30, 2027, lets a receiver sell the facility, and keeps LaSalle operating so the facility stays open and employees stay working during the sale process.
Regular City Council Meeting — January 28, 2026
