Broomfield Detention Center Overview

Broomfield Detention Center is operated by the Broomfield Police Department for the City and County of Broomfield. Broomfield is a consolidated city and county, so the detention function is not presented as a separate county sheriff's office in the local source material. The facility at 11600 Ridge Parkway is the primary local jail for adult custody in Broomfield County. It holds adults arrested in Broomfield, people awaiting bond or court, people booked on local charges or warrants, fugitives or holds, and people serving short local sentences.

The official detention center page says the facility opened on November 15, 2001, after Broomfield's transition into Colorado's 64th county removed the need to transport arrestees to Adams, Boulder, Jefferson, or Weld county jails. The original 2001 facility was designed for 80 inmates. A 2010 expansion increased the facility to 79,325 square feet and raised capacity to 218 inmates, with 156 male beds, 54 female beds, and 8 flex beds. The same official material describes an adult local detention center, not a state prison, federal prison, or ICE detention facility.

The official detention center overview shows the Broomfield facility's history, command structure, address, capacity, and building description.

Broomfield Detention Center Capacity and Population

The detention center's rated capacity is 218 inmates after the 2010 expansion. Recent budget snippets in the research show average daily population figures well below that capacity: 94.83 in 2023, 68.77 year to date in 2024, and a 2026 workbook comparison average daily population of 55. Those figures point to a facility operating below its stated bed capacity during the cited periods, although average daily population is not the same as a live headcount on any particular day.

Capacity also needs to be read by bed type. The official bed breakdown gives 156 male beds, 54 female beds, and 8 flex beds. That means a low total population can still involve practical limits in a particular classification or housing category. The public active booking PDF does not show a housing unit, pod, security classification, or cell assignment, so readers should not try to infer housing availability from the roster alone.

How to Look Up an Inmate at Broomfield Detention Center

Broomfield does not provide a database-style jail search form. The official path starts on the Inmate Information page, which points users to the active booking report. The next screen is a no-solicitation acknowledgement, and the public roster then opens as a current-custody PDF titled Broomfield Active Booking with Charges. The PDF is useful for confirming current custody, charges, bond lines, agency, statute, and report date. It is not a historical booking archive.

The active booking acknowledgement page is a legal gate rather than a paid login. It requires the user to affirm that the requested information will not be used for business solicitation for monetary or pecuniary gain. After that acknowledgement, the active booking PDF opens from the official Broomfield Police and Detention system.

1. Open the official Broomfield Inmate Information page and choose the inmate search link.
2. Read the no-solicitation acknowledgement and proceed only if the use fits the public-record limits stated there.
3. Use the browser or PDF viewer Find command to search the active booking PDF by name.
4. Confirm identity with the inmate ID and DOB fields, especially when names are similar.
5. Review all charge rows for the same person because bond amount, bond type, agency, statute, and description can vary by line.
6. If the person is not listed, call 720-887-2000, contact the Records Unit at 303-438-6420 for records questions, or check CDOC, BOP, ICE, or VINELink when the custody type may have changed.

The active booking PDF fields documented in the research include name, inmate ID, DOB, release date when present, bond amount, bond type, agency, statute, description, and report date and time. The PDF does not show mugshots, housing unit, height, weight, race, sex, or detailed physical descriptors. The official Inmate Information page says next court date and time may be listed, but formal court-date verification should still go through Colorado Judicial Branch docket or Broomfield Combined Courts records channels.

The official inmate information page also explains the local custody-report path, phone account information, mail rules, and the automated voice attendant.

Broomfield Detention Center Address and Contact

Use the detention center for current custody, jail lobby, release, bond, and inmate-information questions. The Inmate Information page says inmate information can be obtained through the automated voice attendant at 720-887-2000. The visitation research also gives 720-887-2051 for questions when an inmate does not appear in the iWebVisit system, because the inmate may not be available for a visit. For police reports, historical arrest records, and formal records requests, use the Broomfield Police Records Unit at 303-438-6420 instead of treating the active booking PDF as a records counter.

Visiting Someone at Broomfield Detention Center

Broomfield does not conduct in-person social visits. Social visits are handled through iWebVisit as remote video visits or limited lobby video visits. Remote iWebVisit sessions are available daily during scheduled blocks: 9 to 10 a.m., noon to 4 p.m., and 6:30 to 9 p.m. The documented fees are $5 for a 15-minute visit and $10 for a 30-minute visit. Lobby video visits are available Tuesday and Thursday from 9 to 10:30 a.m. and noon to 4 p.m.

Visits must be scheduled online, and same-day visits are not allowed. Visitors must be adults 18 or older and must present valid government-issued photo ID for lobby visits. The research also notes no holiday visits. If a person does not appear in iWebVisit, call 720-887-2051 because the inmate may be unavailable for a visit. Attorney and professional visitation rules are separate from ordinary social video visits.

The official visitation page lists the iWebVisit schedule, fees, ID requirements, remote visit rules, lobby visit limits, and the no-solicitation notice tied to Colorado criminal justice records.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Broomfield Detention Center

Mail rules are specific. Broomfield allows letter and legal envelopes, and photos must be on photo paper. The research specifically excludes Polaroids, photocopies, stamps, stickers, internet printouts, glitter, perfume, and similar items. Because mail screening rules can change with facility security needs, senders should check the official Inmate Information page before mailing anything beyond ordinary letters, legal mail, or permitted photo-paper photos.

Phone accounts are handled through Securus at 800-844-6591. Inmate cash accounts can be funded through the lobby kiosk or JailATM. Cash deposits at the lobby kiosk are available 24/7 and carry a $3.25 fee. Card kiosk and JailATM deposits are documented at $3.25 or 10 percent plus card fees, with a $300 per inmate per week limit for card or online deposits. AllPaid is for bond only, not inmate commissary deposits.

The official inmate cash accounts page lists the kiosk, JailATM, fees, cash and card options, and weekly deposit limit.

Booking and Intake at Broomfield Detention Center

Booking at Broomfield Detention Center is local jail intake, not state prison reception. The active booking report shows current housed inmates and charge lines from Broomfield Police Department or other agencies. Research examples included agency, statute, bond amount, bond type, and plain-language descriptions. A roster entry should be treated as custody and charge information at the jail stage, not proof of conviction.

Release can be affected by more than one line in the PDF. A person may have a payable local bond on one charge and a no-bond, variable-bond, cash-only, personal recognizance, or outside-agency hold on another line. Before paying bond, use Broomfield's bond information page and call the jail when a hold, unusual bond type, or outside agency appears. For official filed charges after arrest, use Broomfield Combined Courts and Colorado Judicial Branch docket records because jail booking descriptions may differ from later court filings.

About Broomfield Detention Center

Broomfield's official facility history says the detention center and training facility were designed after public meetings with surrounding neighborhoods. The public-facing portions were intended to resemble an office building in a business park, with no visible bars, chain-link fence, or barbed wire, and official vehicles parked away from public view. The facility also has a release-transportation policy: released arrestees or inmates are not allowed to walk off facility property without arranged transportation. When appropriate, an officer may return a released person to the arrest location, to an RTD Park-n-Ride, or use RTD Call-n-Ride.

The detention programming research identifies creative writing, parenting, maker skills, voting-rights education, job readiness, arts programming, and a library partnership. The facility also publishes PREA material with a zero-tolerance policy, and Broomfield received a Colorado Division of Criminal Justice certificate of compliance under HB21-1280 for bond-rights notices, written policies, staff training, and visible bond-rights information.

The official detention development programs page describes Broomfield's recidivism-focused programming, library partnership, creative writing, parenting, maker skills, job readiness, voting-rights education, and arts projects.
