Blueprints confirm ICE detention facility planned near Gilroy

Blueprints obtained by San José Spotlight reveal a 20,000-square-foot ICE facility with detention and processing areas is planned in unincorporated Santa Clara County near Gilroy. The facility includes detainee processing areas, interview rooms, spaces for mothers with infants, and visitation rooms. Santa Clara County leaders are reviewing legal options to stop the project, citing improper zoning and lack of local notification.
