CHINO - State corrections officials are expected to release a master plan this spring for converting the Heman G. Stark youth prison into a major expansion of adult housing operations.
The transition of Stark into an adult facility is moving forward with the public environmental review process. A public meeting to introduce the plan is likely in the spring, said Bob Sleppy, deputy environmental services director for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
Assemblyman Curt Hagman, R-Chino Hills, met at his Chino Hills office last week with Chris Meyer, corrections chief of construction, and Steve Stone, corrections chief of administration, on the $110 million project expected to add nearly 3,000 adult inmate beds to the Chino area.
