Springfield Municipal Jail Booking Reports
Springfield is one of the few Oregon cities that operates its own jail. The Springfield Municipal Jail has a capacity of 100 inmates and handles short-term holds after arrests. Booking reports from this facility cover the intake process for people arrested by Springfield Police and held locally.
The Municipal Jail is designed for short stays. People held for longer periods or facing more serious charges are transferred to Lane County Adult Corrections. This means some Springfield booking reports are at the city jail, while others are at the county facility. The type of charge and the length of the hold determine where the records end up.
Visitation at Lane County facilities runs Wednesday through Sunday from 8 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 4 p.m. Video visitation is also available. For Lane County jail records, call 541-682-4263 or 541-682-2227.
