Pre-trial detainees will be allowed two (2) unmonitored phone calls as part of the booking process. 

The booking officer will notify a Bail Commissioner if you are eligible for bail.. 

Any additional phone calls can be made from the inmate phones in the housing unit to which you will be assigned. Phones are normally activated from 0800 AM to 2300 hours, but only when approved by the shift supervisor after cleaning has been completed. 

Should you bail and need to arrange transportation, you may be allowed to call from the desk phone in the booking area.
