The real story is that campaign contributions and bribes were made and contractors made big bucks and workers got employed. These projects are usually bonded out and the state and Feds might be paying for some of the construction costs.
Running the jail comes out of a different fund. Namely current expenditures

That is usually the case. However, Wapato was built under a voter approved tax thingee that also included startup and operating costs. The operating costs were put into the general fund during construction and the money done got spent. It seems that our elected county officals learned well from Enron.
