SCOPE OF STUDY
The purpose of the act as defined therein was. !'to The commission, to accomplish those purposes,
create a state agency which shall act as a coordinat­ing
body to formulate and recommend current and
long range project and improvement programs for
all state agencies; to receive from all state agencies
requests for construction; to analyze such requests
on the basis of actual present and future needs, fi­nancial
feasibility and the proposed cost; to plan
for present and future needs for all state agency
lands and buildings; to promote economy in capital
expenditures by building practices; to screen all
state agency project and improvement requests and
present them ~o the legislature with appropriate rec­ommendations;
to carry out such improvements, pro­grams
and projects as may be referred or assigned
to the commission by the legislature."

OTHER STATE CAPITAL· OUTLAY PROGRAMS . .
Since the report deals particularly with building needs which were assigned to the commission for
study, it does not include those specifically exempted by the act. Departments not included are:
State Highway Commission
Game and Fish Commission
Employment Security Commission
Board of Regents
GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS
Following are the general assumptions upon which the report is based:
STATE POPULATION WILL CONTINUE
TO INCREASE
Uniform projection of statewide population has
been used as a basis for forecasts of the future
growth of the state's requirements. Individual de­partment
forecasting has been related to such state­wide
population estimates.
The civilian population of the state is expected,
under the medium estimates of the projection, to
reach 1,313,000 by 1960 and 1,429,000 by 1965.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND
EXISTING POLICIES
All segments of this report, including the popu­lation
projections, are based on the assumptions that
for the next ten years there will be no warfare or
other major catastrophe, that the state's economic
growth will be at the approximate rate of its popu­lation
increase without either significant inflation
or depression, that building costs will be maintained
at approximately the present level. Any serious
worsening of economic conditions would result in
generally heavier burdens on the state's institutions.
Although the Board of Regents is exempted from
our consideration, it is important to note that the
construction funds required are general fund ap­propriations
and that generally, more young people
attend college in bad times. Also more individuals
require hospitalization and custodial care and fewer
jobs are available for persons ready for parole from
our correctional institutions.
In addition, it is assumed that no major changes
will occur as to the functions which the state per­forms,
no significant shifts of responsibility will be
made between the state and federal governments
or local units of government, and no new functions
will be imposed upon the state which would require
heavy capital outlay. It is further assumed that it
will be the policy of the state to maintain high stand­ards
in the conduct of its institutions and services,
but with continued emphasis on strict economy.
Again referring to the exemption, this report does
not provide for the extensive capital outlay program
that we understand is being proposed by the Board) .
of Regents. Nor have we, in this first report, pro­vided
for a substantial extension of programs of any
other state agency that would require new institu­tions
or large additional capital outlay. Any such
additions or extensions of programs authorized by
the legislature would require substantial increases
in the capital outlay requirements over and above
those projecte,d in this report.

.FINDINGS
HEAVY CAPITAL OUTLAY UNAVOIDABLE
The substantial expenditures made for capital out­lay
in the years following the close df World War II
have largely been devoted to catching up with the
deficiencies of a long period of little or no capital
outlay during the depression years of the 1930's and
the war years which followed.
The state is faced with the unavoidable necessity
of large expenditures for capital outlay in the five
years immediately ahead to meet the requirement
arising out of the continued growth of the state. In
the ten year period from 1945 to 1955, the civilian
population will have increased from 624,414 to
1,040,000, a 67% gain. A further growth of 389,-
000 or 37.4% is estimated for the ensuing ten years,
resulting in a civilian population of 1,429,000 in
1965.
Moreover, most of the state agencies are affected
by factors which increase requirements for the cap-ital
outlay at rates exceeding the rate of general
population growth.
Arizona for many years has had a smaller per­centage
of its population than the national average
requiring treatment and care in its state hospital for
the mentally ill and mentally retarded. Increased
utilization and other factors have a tendency to move
the trend upward in both categories. It is reasonable
to expect increases in admission and commitments
at the state hospital and in admissions and average
institution populations at the prison, Fort Grant and
the Children's Colony, considerably greater than the
rate of growth of the entire population.
Despite the heavy building program instituted by
the legislature since the end of World War II, many
of the state's institutions are still overcrowded as
will be seen from the data presented. Rebuilding
programs are designed to at least partially remedy
overcrowding as well as to meet future growth.
CONCLUSION
In the limited time available to the commission
and with the excellent cooperation of the various
agencies affected, an attempt has been made to fur­nish
the legislature with the minimum needs for the
n.ext fiscal year and a reasonable program for the
full five year period. We feel that this report con­stitutes
a reasonably reliable appraisal of these mini-mum
needs and constitutes a logical and comprehen­sive
master plan for the next five years. The projects
to be undertaken in the fiscal year 1957-58 have
been more precisely estimated as to cost and more
definitely defined, in some instances, than for the
later years for which time permitted only the rough­est
of estimates for most of the projects.

REQUIREMENTS
It continues to be abundantly evident that with
every indication of continued growth in this· state,
its capital outlay requirements will continue beyond
the next five years. Sound programming for capital
outlay must be done on a long term basis. There is
always great risk of costly errors otherwise. The most
effective programming can be accomplished by a
moving five year building program. Under this pro­cedure
the state would always be looking five years
ahead with carefully developed, long term master
plans for each of its agencies, well developed stand­ards
to guide in planning and designing its structures
and with scheduling and timing procedures such
that each session of the legislature can be presented
with a program forthe ensuing year which has been
thoroughly considered, fully justified and clearly de­fined.
To the extent that these long term master
plans have been carefully geared to projections of
future needs, numerous changes will be avoided.
However, to be absolutely realistic, recognition
should be made of the fact that future planning is a
dynamic process which must deal with important
changes in policies, needs and new concepts as they
develop.
COMMISSION METHODS
From the very outset, the commission chose' a pol­icy
of "tread lightly and live frugally". To provide
the technical services needed on the staff would
have overloaded the administrative budget and
would not have produced the immediate results de­sired.
Therefore, the commission has kept the staff
at a bare minimum, drawing on the various state
agencies for assistance and awarding contracts for
the major planning studies.
The staff meanwhile has gathered information
from the institutions by means of conferences, sur­veys
and field studies. The building maintenance
inspection service and consulting service performed
by the commission staff has been most helpful in
maintaining a constant liaison between the institu­tions
and the commission.

STATE CAPITOL AREA· PROGRAM
Of all of .the projects being undertaken by the
commission, the one of greatest interest both to the
legislature and the general public is the Capitol Area
Program. The commission was instructed by the leg­islature
to "proceed with the following programs,
projects and improvements:
1. Preparation of a program of improvements
for the alteration, rehabilitation or repair of the in­terior
and exterior of the existing capitol building
and grounds, and the commission is directed to pro­ceed
with the actual alteration, rehabilitation or re­pair
of the existing capitol building and grounds,
progress reports to be submitted to the legislature
and governor not later than December 31, 1956.
2. Preparation of a program of one or more proj­ects
for the acquisition of additional real property
in the vicinity of the state capitol and for the con­struction
of new state office building facilities
thereon, and the commission is directed to proceed
with the actual construction of new state office build­ing
facilities in the capitol area, progress reports to
be made to the legislature and governor not later
than December 31, 1956.
3. Preparation of a program of improvements for
the alteration, enlargement or repair of existing
state office buildings in the vicinity of the capitol
area, to be submitted to the legislature and governor
not later than December 31, 1956.
4. Preparation of a coordinated master plan for
the orderly and efficient development of the capitol
building area, including the programs set out in sub­sections
1, 2, and 3 immediately preceding, to be
submitted to the legislature and the governor not
later than December 31, 1956.
5. Acquisition of such parcels of real property in
the vicinity of the present capitol building as may
be needed for projects and improvements referred
to in this section."
The commission chose to set up three separate
projects to comply with these directives.
STATE CAPITOL BUILDING PROGRAM
When the commission was formed, a great deal
of work in connection with this problem had been
done under the direction, first, of a committee 'cre­ated
by the legislature and, second, by an unofficial
citizens' committee appointed by Governor McFar­land.
The original, official committee had entered into
a contract with a joint venture of Arizona architects
known as the Associated State Capitol Architects,
composed of the firms of Lescher and Mahoney,
Phoenix; H. H. Green, Phoenix; Edward Varney and
Associates, Phoenix; and Lew Place, Tucson, to do
the architectural work for the capitol area. This joint
venture had presented preliminary plans for which
they had been paid $60,000 dollars. The directive
of the legislature relative to the enlargement of the
present building ruled out the use of the existing
plan.
The chairman of the commission appointed a com­mittee
of three: Governor Ernest W. McFarland,
Dwight Patterson and Donald L. Lockwood, to ne­gotiate
with the Associated State Capitol Architects
for a credit for the funds already paid by the state.
The committee was successful in working out a con­tract
that provided for the recovery of the entire
$60,000 as a credit against fees due under the new
contract.
The design of a building is in reality a packaging
operation. If one would visualize each department
as a box and the problem to arrange the various
boxes in a symmetrical whole, some of the complex­ities
of the problem could be seen. The problem is
further complicated by the fact that no two boxes
are identical in size or shape. The State Auditor's
department might be represented by a long, wide,
flat box while each house of the legislature would
be three times as high and half as wide. Another
complication is the fact that certain departments
have parallel functions and of necessity must be ei­ther
contiguous or closely related.
In spite of the pressure for an early solution of the
problem, the commission chose to risk criticism by
taking the slow painstaking method of utilizing, to

r
the fullest extent, the talents of the several architects
involved and repeatedly calling for revisions of the
solutions that they presented. A detailed explana­tion
of the procedures and the recommendations,
cost estimates and drawings are contained in an ap­pendix
to this report.
LONG RANGE CAPITOL AREA PLAN
Once again the commission found that a great
deal of work had been done on a volunteer basis by
members of the unofficial committee appointed by
Governor McFarland.
To get the most practical solution to this problem,
the commission chose to enter into a contract for
long range planning which includes both the capitol
area and the fairgrounds relocation with a joint ven­ture
of architects composed of the firms of Weaver
and Drover, Phoenix, and Kemper Goodwin, Tempe,
Arizona.
Because of the many problems involved, the com­mission
instructed the architect to work closely with
the City of Phoenix planning, and traffic depart­ments,
the Maricopa County Planning Department
and the State Highway Commission. A resume of
their work and the recommendations and other
pertinent data are encompassed in an appendix to
this report.
CAPITOL AREA LAND ACQUISITION
After months of careful study and upon recom­mendation
by both the Associated State Capitol
Architects and the Planning Architects a program
of land acquisition was begun in the Capitol area.
The initial purchase area selected included those
parcels bounded by 17th Avenue on the West, 16th .
Avenue on the East, Adams Street on the North and
Jefferson Street on the South. In addition the com­mission
decided to purchase parcels fronting. on
Adams Street that were contiguous to state buildings.
In order to set up an orderly method of acquiring
these parcels, it was necessary to obtain preliminary
title reports on each piece. Bids were called for and
Lane Title Company was low with a bid of $15.00
per parcel. A subsequent agreement with Lane Title
provides for the return of the $15.00 to the State
on each parcel subsequently purchased. This con­tract,
in fact, provides the title reports at no cost to
the state.
The act provides that "the amount paid for any
property purchased by the commission, except such
property as may be acquired by condemnation, shall
not exceed the appraised value as fixed by a com­mittee
of three appraisers to be appointed by the
Governor, each of whom shall be a member of the
American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (MAl).
The cost of the appraisal shall be paid by the com­mission
from funds appropriated to the commis­sion".
Such a committee of appraisers was appointed
by Governor McFarland and appraisal reports made
on each separate parcel included in the acquisition
program.
Actual offers to purchase, of necessity, had to be
delayed until the reports were received. However,
at the time of preparation of this report agreements
of sale covering ten parcels have been executed and
the acquisition is proceeding in an orderly manner.

STATE FAIRGROUNDS RELOCATION
The act directed the commission to "undertake a
program of planning to determine the advisability
of disposing of real property'located in Maricopa
County known as the state fairgrounds, and relocat­ing
the fairgrounds elsewhere. The commission's
plan shall not only consider the needs of the state
fair commission, but also those of the university, state
colleges, public schools and other public agencies
for civic exhibitions, sports events and other civic
uses. The commission shall prepare and submit ap­propriate
findings and recommendations to the leg­islature
and governor not later than December 31,
1956, which shall include the value of present land
and facilities, the cost of new land and facilities and
the time which will be needed to effect a relocation."
The commission makes the following general rec­ommendations:
1. That the State Fair Commission be made a
body corporate with the power to issue revenue
bonds
2. That the existing fairgrounds be sold and the
proceeds of the sale used for construction at a new
site
3. That the new site be within the bo~ndaries of
that parcel of land now owned by the state and gen­erally
known as Papago Park.
TUCSON OFFICE BUILDING
The act directed the commission to "acquire the
proposed Tucson state office building site as rec­ommended
by the Tucson building committee or any
other alternative site deemed desirable by the com­mission,
whether by the exercise of any option or
options, by eminent domain proceedings or other­wise;
to negotiate with any state agency having
funds available for the Tucson project for coopera­tive
project prosecution. The commission is directed
to prepare final plans, working drawings, specifi­cations,
details and estimates for a state office build­ing
in Tucson to be submitted to the legislature and
the governor not later than December 31, 1956."
As the first step in following the direction of the
legislature, the commission held a meeting with the
Tucson Office Building Committee which had been
created by the first regular session of the 22nd Legis­lature.
This committee had obtained options on cer­tain
parcels of land in the city of Tucson and had
done a highly commendable job of locating a de­sirable
site.
A committee of appraisers was appointed by the
governor and an appraisal report made. A contract
was entered into with the architectural firm of Blan­ton
and Cole, Tucson, to prepare the necessary plans
and specifications. Conferences were begun with the
Employment Security Commission to determine how
the site could best be divided to provide the maxi­mum
benefit to the public. An agreement was
reached wherein the Employment Security Commis­sion
would pay $110,000.00 of the appraised $245,-
000.00 for the land upon which their building would
be constructed.
As in the case of the Capitol building, but on a
much smaller sc~le, the problem of design and shape
within the limits of utility and expense was explored.
Preliminary drawings have been approved by the
commission and final working drawings are in
progress.

BUILDING INSPECTION
One of the least heralded and most important
\ projects assigned to the commission was contained
in the directive to the legislature that "The commis­sion
shall from time to time inspect all state buildings
and report to the legislature on their condition,
maintenance repair and utilization."
Such inspections have been and are being made
with the result that maintenance personnel not only
have a check upon their work but also have informa­tion
available to them. As one part of this important
phase of the work, a maintenance bulletin has been
prepared which will be mailed monthly to each
state .institution and to departments responsible for
maintenance. A library of maintenance information
from the federal government, private concerns and
other states is being assembled for reference.
Samples of our maintenance inspection report and
the maintenance bulletin are reproduced in this
report.
CONSULTING SERVICE
In an effort to be of further assistance to state
agencies the staff has acted in a consulting capacity
on problems, within its limitations, and as a clearing
house in securing information from other sources.
Research is now in progress for the State Prison
on maximum security cell blocks, for the State Fair
Commission on stadium rentals, for Fort Grant on
water supply and for the Pioneer home on auto­matic
fire protection.
BUILDING INVENTORY
A form was mailed to each state agency with the
request that it be completed and returned to the
commission. The information requested was detailed
and often difficult to obtain. A large percentage of
the institutions and agencies have completed the
work and the laborious work of follow-up on the
delinquent reports is in progress.
The commission is not only assembling files of
plans of newly constructed buildings but is attempt­ing
to secure plans of every building now owned by
the state. Remarkable success has been had consid­ering
the fact that some of the buildings are nearly
a half century old.

CARE OF ASPHALT TILE
Asphalt tile is made of about 35 per
cent asphaltum, 15 per cent asbestos
fibers and the remainder of lime rock,
wood flour and colored pigments. The
asphaltum binds the aggregates together.
The tiles are very brittle and must be
laid on a solid floor to serve saUs ...
factorily. Like lineoleum, the' tiles
are cemented to the floor. Sometimes
plywood is used instead of the felt,
particularly where the old floor is not
even) or is not solid enough.
Effects of strong soap, solvents,'and
water on asphalt tile. Any soap con­taining
lye forms an emulsion with the
asphal tum and removes it and causes the
c4)10rs to I'bleed" or run. Use only
clear cold water or a neutral-soap
solution when cleaning asphalt tile.
Solvents and oils of any kind dilute
the asphaltum and cause the tiles to
soften. For this reason liquid wax or
paste wax, both of which are thinned
with sol vents, must never be used on
asphalt tile. Use water emulsion wax
only on any floor covering containing
asphaltum. Never mop with enough water
to permit it to seep into the uems
between the tiles. This causes the
cement to loosen and the water carries
dirt with it that raises the edges of the
tilet so they break under traffic.

In addition to the regular re­charge
for soda...acid extin­guishers,
the National Board of
Fire Undezwriters recommends a
hydrostatic test for all ex­tinguishers
over five years old.
The tremendous pressure genera­tions
by the soda-acid reacUon

check by rna intenance per­sonnel.
This can be most
easily done by keeping a weight
record of the CO2 extinguishers.
Any loss of weight indicates a
possible failure and calls for
immediate recharge.
FOR YOUR INFO~ATION
Our file of plans of existing build­ings
is constantly growing. We will
eventuall y have working drawings for
every building owned by the State of

One of the main purposes in main­taining
this file is to provide a
ready source of information for the
use of maintenance personnel, con­tractors
and other interested parties.
The plans may be examined at the
commission office or borrowed with-out
deposit by state employes. A

or it is desired to remove the wax,
clean with a mop dampened in clear
cold water. If it is necessary to
use soap, use a lukewarm solution
of neutral soap.
RUBBER TILE
Rubber tile is made from 'natural
rubber with pigments for color end
enough aggregates to give it body.
It is very resilient and is im­pervious
to water and dirt. It is
damaged by oils, solvents. or
strong soap. Water, if allowed to
stand on i.t. seeps into the seams
and loosens the tiles or strips.
Unless a rubber floor is well
waxed it tends to efforesce or
bloom.
Recommendgd~. Clean and
wax the same as asphalt tile.

by rubbing them with a clean cloth
saturated with water emulsion wax.
Never use liquid wax or paste on
rubber floors.
Hand trucks. with protruding
handles are a source of trouble
for maintenance personnel.
These handles have a habit of
scratching walls when they are
set aside in hallways, 'closets
et cetera. These scratches
and scars may be eliminated by
using rubber bicyele grips or
plastic eleetrician's tape.
(Never friction tape).
Whenever a contractor paints
or repaints an area of your buildings,
insist that he leave a small amount
of the pa int he uses for future
touch-up.
A local supplier has furnished the
commission with samples of several
different floor waxes for testing.
If you are interested in testing
these waxes. you may obtain sma 11
samples at the commission office.
Bring your own container, As other
samples of products are available.
the information will be published

ARIZONA STATE HOSPITAL FARM
The commission has made a thorough study of
the problem of the disposition of the State Hospital
Farm property. Among the factors considered were:
1. Therapeutic value of farm labor to inmates
2. Dollar resources from the farm
3. Possible proceeds of sale
4. Desirability ofa different site
5. Advantages of site for future state develop­ment.
CONCLUSIONS
The present farm program' provides a minimum
of labor experience due to the nature of the opera­tion.
The bulk of the land is utilized to provide feed
for the dairy cattle. The farm program has improved
to a point where the emphasis has been placed on
sound financial management rather than make-work
programs for the inmates.
The Hospital management recommends the sale
of the present farm and the utilization of a smaller
plot of land to the north of the present hospital
grounds as a truck garden. This move anticipates
the abandonment of the dairy and the sale of the
milk herd. The hospital management then suggests
that the proceeds of the sale be reappropriated to
the use of the hospital board for capacity outlay and
current expense.
The commission does not concur with this ap­praisal
of the problem. We believe and recommend
that the hospital farm be retained until long range
studies indicate that it is surplus to the needs of any
state institution. The abandonment of the dairy is
not within the scope of this commission and we there­fore
make no recommendation on this phase of the
problem.

STATE INSTITUTIONS AND DEPARTMENTS
The institutions and departments of the state are
governed by more than 100 boards and commis­sions.
Each of these supervising bodies are required
to submit a budget request to the legislature through
the state auditor on forms prepared by the auditor
for that purpose.
Prior to the act creating this commission, requests
for capital outlay were submitted as a part of the
budget requ~st and later explained and justified by
the requesting department before committees of the
legislature. The act however specifically provides as
follows:
"All state agencies contemplating or proposing
any major project or improvement shall submit a
request to the commission for approval of the pro­posed
project or improvement.
"The commission shall annually transmit all pro­posed
programs, projects and improvements, to­gether
with itsl report, to the legislature with a plan
for co-ordination of expenditures and finances
therefor.
"No request for appropriations shall be made to
the legislature for any proposed project or impr~ve­ment
by any state agency unless reported by the
commission and submitted to the legislature by the
commission in cooperation with the agency."
In order to facilitate the handling of requests, the
commission communicated with each state agency,
department and commission and furnished each with
a copy of the act and the rules governing the com­mission's
operations. Inspection of the institutions,
conferences with the governing bodies and man­aging
personnel, public hearings and studies have
been made in connection with each request.
The institutions and departments that have sub­mitted
requests are considered individually on the
following pages.
THE NATIONAL GUARD OF ARIZONA
Because the National Guard construction program
depends on both state and federal funds and be­cause
the method of securing both federal approval
and funds is highly involved, a more detailed study
of this department is included. In order to under­stand
the complexities of the problem of construc­tion
a general knowledge of the organization and
function of the department is necessary.
ORGANIZATION AND FUNCTION
The National Guard of Arizona was created by
law and is organized in accordance with Chapter 1,
Title 26, Arizona Revised Code. This department is
responsible for execution of all orders pertaining to
the militia, which consists of the National Guard of
Arizona, the State Guard when organized, and the
unorganized militia.
The Military Department is administered and con-trolled
by the Governor as Commander in Chief and
consists of the Adjutant General, who is the admin­istrative
head thereof, and such officers, warrant
officers, enlisted men, and employees as may be
deemed necessary. The position of The Adjutant
General is appointive for a term coterminus with
that of the Governor.
On succeeding pages are an organizational chart
of the Military Department of the State of Arizona,
and a chart showing the organization of the State
Adjutant General's Office to provide support of the
military organization.

Acceptance Date" thereby commencing the 25-year
agreement covering the facility.
CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM
It is well to point out the factors that are affecting
the Armory program which make the amending
thereof necessary, and the status of proposed armory
construction at federal level. Major General Frank
E. Fraser has reported as follows:
Winslow Armory is presently approved by federal
government and architect is starting preliminary
plans and specifications.
Casa Grande Armory is before the federal gov­ernment
with approval indicated sometime next
year. Information has come to us that the city of Casa
Grande will propose legislation whereby the city
may acquire present armory, over thirty-five years
old, for sum much less than that first proposed, per­haps
at no cost. This legislation, if adopted, will re­quire
State to appropriate necessary matching funds
estimated to be twenty-five thousand dollars. A site
for new armory must also be provided.
It was proposed the armories located in Douglas,
Nogales and Safford be rehabilitated and ex­panded.
The federal government approved the
Douglas armory project with Nogales and Safford
pending. However, due to opposition by the citizens
of these respective communities and their legislators
on spending additional monies on what they term
"antiquated structures," we have requested the fed­eral
government to cancel requests for the expan­sion
and in lieu consider the cities for new armories.
Sites must be provided, approval by the Commis­sion,
the Governor.and the federal government, and
matching funds provided. It is doubtful if federal
approval will be forthcoming in less than two years.
An armory was approved for Warren and match­ing
funds, state and federal, were available. Due to
the fact that Phelps Dodge Corporation, through Mr.
Pullen, could not make available a suitable site, the
federal funds were withdrawn. A new site, not on
the Phelps Dodge property, near the Bisbee-Don
Luis-Naco road junction, has been offered and will
be inspected very shortly as to adequacy. If ap­proved,
a new armory will be constructed to replace
present building that is rented from Phelps Dodge
and is inadequate.
Favorable consideration is being given by the gov­ernment
for transfer of federal property in Alzona
Park district as an armory site. This armory is re­quired
to accommodate the residents of the west
Phoenix area, and relieve Phoenix armory of
crowded conditions. The Governor and general staff
approved an armory for West Phoenix in July 1955
contingent upon funds and site.
The band is presently housed in an abandoned
fire station owned by city of Phoenix. No rent is
charged as the band is required to play concerts in
-19-
I.r" 'W". .~~=~===-".,-.. "-."
<' ,I
'\ I
Encanto Park. However, no firm lease is given by
the city of Phoenix; instead, it is a month to month
deal with the state being required to maintain build­ing.
By moving a rifle company from present Phoenix
armory to West Phoenix housing of band will be
assured.
Present' Phoenix armory, with slight expansion,
can accommodate Headquarters 158th Infantry Reg­imental
Combat Team, Medical Company and Band.
The same holds true for San Manuel to some ex­tent,
although the town is new, there are those that
believe a National Guard unit can be maintained and
again it would be possible to allot an engineer com­pany
to this community. Approval of San Manuel
Copper Company will be a requirement plus the pro­viding
of site.
Overtures have been made to again locate a unit
of the National Guard in the Clifton-Morenci area,
after an absence of almost forty years. Approval of
Phelps Dodge will be required and a site provided.
An excellent unit was located in this area prior to
World War I but not reactivated at close of war. It
is possible an engineer company can be allotted as
Department of Army will make this type of unit avail­able
to Arizona.
Other communities have requested consideration
of armories and we are forced to recommend denial,
predicated upon lack of populatio~ potential. With­out
qualified officers and sufficient number of en­listed
men upon which to build a unit the allotment
of a unit cannot be made. The community or imme­diate
area must be able to develop a unit of 100
officers and men under present table of organiza­tion.
Without a unit the community cannot hope to
receive an armory constructed by federal and state
funds.

ARIZONA STATE HOSPITAL
In states that have a Department of Mental Hy­giene,
this agency administers State Hospitals for
. the mentally ill, mentally retarded, and other per­sons
suffering from mental ailments, out-patient
clinics for early diagnosis of mental illness and guid­ance
in its treatment; research in.treatment of mental
disorders; regulation of private institutions for men­tal
cases, and program for public information and
development of improved mental hygiene facilities.
Arizona's program is divided between three de­partments:
The Childrens' Colony cares for the men­tally
retarded child. The Department of Health
supervises private institutions for mental cases. The
Arizona State Hospital administers a program that
includes treatment and care of mentally ill, adult
mentally retarded, and other persons suffering from
mental ailments and out-patient clinics for early
diagnosis of mental illness and follow-up care of
patients on conditional discharge from the hospital.
Some research has been done with limited facilities.
A worthwhile program for public education and de­velopment
of improved mental hygiene facilities has
been accomplished by members of the staff on a
volunteer extra-curricular basis.
BASIC FACTORS AFFECTING
CAPITAL OUTLAY
The important factors affecting the Capital outlay
program are summarized as: population, treatment
program, overcrowding, building standards, mod­ernization
and replacement.
The population estimates are based on a continu­ing
growth in the state's civilian population and a
resulting growth in admissions to the State Hospital.
For the mentally ill the length of residence of re­cently
admitted patients in the hospital has been
shortened and it appears as though this trend will
continue.
OVERCROWDING
Historically the State Hospital has always been
considerably overcrowded. The program envisioned
proposes a significant reduction in overcrowding
and an increase in patient comfort which will en­hance
the intensive treatment program and should
contribute to the ultimate decrease in the rate of
increase in resident population. Intensive treatment
offers the greatest opportunity for maximum patient
release per staffing dollar expended.
BUILDING STANDARDS
Certain standards for mental hospitals have been
set by the National Psychiatric Association as basic
for the proper care of residential patients. A com­plete
report on the desired improvements and reno­vation
has been made to the Legislature by the Hos­pital
Board. One of the largest items in the proposed
program is the central air conditioning plant. This
plan proposes to use existing service tunnels to pro­vide
refrigerated cooling to the several wards now
inadequately cooled by evaporative methods. This
program can be accomplished more economically at
this time than at any later date.
ENLARGED MEDICAL STAFF
The Hospital Administration requests $100,-
000.00 for five or six furnished houses for enlarged
medical staff. In that this request is predicated upon
legislative approval of the hospital administration's
budgetary requests for additional funds, we have
not recommended construction. However, should
the legislature provide funds for additional doctors
and should the legislature also desire that they be
housed at the institution, additional construction
would be necessary.

CHILDREN'S COLONY
The Children's Colony Board administers and operates institutions for the treatment, care and training
of mentally retarded children.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
Being a relatively new institution, the Children's
Colony had the advantage of being planned as a
complete, functional entity. Sections of the plan
have been adopted by past legislatures and the
building program has proceeded in an orderly man­ner.
Building costs at this institution have been un­usually
low due to the efficient planning of the board
and the superintendent.
This department proposes the construction of two
C-Type Cottages and additions to the school which
will complete the original plan with the exception
of dormitories for high grade children which may
not be desirable in the light of present planning.
BASIC FACTORS AFFECTING
CAPITAL OUTLAY
The important factors affecting the capital outlay
program at this institution are: population, urban­ization,
public school programs and overcrowding.
The population estimates are based on a continu­ing
growth in the State civilian population and a
resulting growth in the resident population in the
institution.
At the present time the population of the institu­tion
is 380 and known cases on the waiting list 400.
The new dormitories now being completed will in­crease
the institution's population to 620.
One significant change affecting this capital out­lay
program is the increase in special education
classes offered in the public schools. The Tucson
school system now has 18 classes with 270 enrolled.
Phoenix has started a program with five classes.
There are other programs in the Phoenix area. Mari­copa
County has opened three accommodation
schools, one of which is for mentally retarded chil­dren.
These programs will allow a reduction in the
estimates of admissions of high grade children and
may allow discharges of some children from those
areas. Should this trend continue the program could
change to a greater degree than previously pro­jected.
URBANIZATION
Urbanization affects this program to a marked de­gree
in that children who would be tolerated in
simpler environment cannot cope with the competi­tive
atmosphere of an urban area. This results in a
larger percentage of admissions.
OVERCROWDING
The problem of overcrowding at this institution
has been handled in a simple manner - no admis-

sions without facilities to handle. Consequently all
of the hazards and costs of overcrowding have been
avoided.
CONCLUSION
The board and this commission concur in the opin­ion
that the building program recommended for the
1957-58 fiscal year should conclude the plan at the
Randolph site until the 1959-60 fiscal years.
Immediate steps should be undertaken to acquire
sites in the Phoenix and Tucson areas for small cus­todial
institutions for the care of the most seriously
handicapped.

STATE SANITARIUM
The State Sanitarium is under the supervision of the State Board of Health. This institution is for the care
and treatment of tubercular patients.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
The State 'Sanitarium is one of the state's older
institutions and is located at Tempe. Only minor cap­ital
outlay appropriations have been made since it
was originally constructed and those have been
made to permit the gradual evolution of the insti­tution
from a custodial care and treatment institution
to an intensive treatment and surgical center. With
the introduction of new medical and surgical
techniques and the passage of the Tuberculosis Con­trol
legislation, it appears that the immediate pres­sure
for a larger institution has lessened.
We propose to re-evaluate the entire program in
cooperation with the Board of Health to more def­initely
determine the effects upon admission, length
of stay and change in scope.
IMMEDIATE PROBLEMS
The most pressing immediate problem at the in­stitution
is funds for minor alterations, maintenance
and major repairs. While not within the scope of our
specific instructions from the legislature, our inspec­tions
have indicated that a continuous rehabilitation
program would be the most economical. The insti­tution
has requested $44,400.00 in capita I outlay
to install a new water softener, miscellaneous small
items and connect the institution with the City of
Tempe sewer system. An examination of the present
sewage disposal system shows that it is inadequate
and constitutes a menace to the health of the pa­tients,
the employees and the general public. We
recommend an emergency appropriation so that the
work may be done at the same time as the city of
Tempe extension, thus saving the additional expense
of re-opening junction points.

STATE SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF AND BLIND
This institution provides facilities for the care and training of deaf and blind children. A complete pro­gram
of teaching is provided through high school including, but not limited to, vocational education and
musical training. A very fine athletic program is carried on.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
This department proposes the expenditure of
$322,000 for the construction of a new $100,000
blind boy dormitory to provide an additional ca­pacity
for 22 boys and a $222,000 auditorium and
classroom wing.
BASIC FACTORS AFFECTING
CAPITAL OUTLAY
The most important factor affecting capital outlay
is population. Unlike other institutions that have
many variables in their projection, this school has
historically increased in population in almost exact
proportion to general population increase. Medical
reductions in the rate of blindness and deafness have
been offset by new causes. For example, while a re­duction
in congential blindness has been constant
a new cause of blindness in premature infants (Retro­lentil
fibroplaisia) was causing a marked increase
until the source was recently discovered. One factor
that may have some effect on the estimates is the
possible reduction in average age of those moving
to Arizona from other states. If this new population
coming to work in our infant electronic industry is
of a lower than average age group, we will have a
larger percentage of children including blind and
deaf.
STATISTICAL INFORMATION
Pupils at the school now number 225, of which
150 are deaf and 75' blind. Division by sexes is al­most
exactly half and half, while two thirds are en­rolled
in the elementary school and one third in the
high school. Approximately seven percent graduate
each year and eight percent transfer in and out of
the institution.
BUILDING STANDARDS
The board of this institution believes that, because
of the peculiar problems associated with the care
and education of the deaf and blind, the institution
should carry an absolute maximum of 360 pupils.
A maximum of 300 would be even more desirable.
Building costs per pupil are greater at a school
of this type than the average institution because the
domiciliary part of the program is a part of the edu­cational
program and home situations must be dupli­cated
as nearly as possible.

CONCLUSIONS
1965

A location for a new institution should be acquired
as soon as possible. Preliminary plans and cost esti­mates
should be prepared in cooperation with the
institution's board for examination by the legislature
during the second regular session so that this com­mission
may be advised of the legislature's wishes
in regard to a new institution.

ARIZONA STATE PRISON
This department is headed by a warden appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of
the senate, who administers the State's correction system for adults convicted of, felonies and youths who
are committed as adults after having ,been cert}fied by the juvenile courts. The prison is divided into three
sections: the main prison, the women's prison and the Institute for .Education and Vocational Rehabilitation.
PROGRAM SUMMARY
~~ The five year construction program of the depart­ment
is required to meet the needs of the anticipated
, increase in prison population which reflects the un­precedented
growth of the total population of the
. state. Increased bed capacity and related facilities
are needed not only to accommodate additional
population but to reduce present overcrowding.
The program of construction for the 1957-58 pe~
riod proposes the construction of a new recreational
building which will also be used for a dental exam­ination
and treatment room during the time of
examinations given by the State Board of Dental
Examiners.
Presently in progress are several important con­struction
programs, money for which has been ap­propriated
by, past legislatures. They include: New
Trusty Dormitory, outside the walls, with a capacity
of 200, dormitory and mess hall at Ranch #1 with a
capacity of 20 men, new steam plant at the main
prison, electric gate at the Institute for Vocational
Education and Vocational Rehabilitation. Money is
also on hand for a new prison laundry, print shop,
dairy, and miscellaneous improvements.

BASIC FACTORS AFFECTING
CAPITAL OUTLAY
The basic factors affecting capital outlay at the
state prison are: population growth, urbanization,
changes in criminal law penalties, disposition of con­victed
defendants by the superior courts; effect of
the rehabilitation and parole system.
POPULATION GROWTH
AND URBANIZATION
While commitments might be expected to follow
a nearly exact percentage, of the increase in civilian
population of the state, commitments may be ex­pected
to increase at a greater rate than the total
population. Urbanization is the main factor in, the
rising rate of increase.
CHANGES IN CRIMINAL LAW PENALTIES
Each change in criminal law penalties has a direct
effect on population estimates. At the present time
16% of the inmates have been convicted of bogus
check offenses. A change in law making first offense
bogus checks a misdemeanor, for example, could be
expected to reduce the number of commitments. By
the same token, should an offense now classified as
a misdemeanor be changed to a felony, an increase
in commitm~nt might be expected.

DISPOSITION OF CONVICTED
DEFENDANTS
Any change in the disposition of convicted de­fendants
by the Superior Courts has a direct bearing
on population estimates. Granting of'probation and
length of terms are prerogatives of the court in most
cases.
Institution administrators tell us that the courts
have shown a marked reluctance to sentence wom­en
offenders to the state prison due to the deplor­able
condition of the women's section; granting pro­bation
in cases where, under other circumstances,
confinement would be desirable. A correction of
conditions in the women's prison could then be ex­pected
to greatly increase the rate of commitment.
EFFECT OF REHABILITATION AND
PAROLE SYSTEM
The effect of the accelerated rehabilitation pro'­gram
and the enlarged parole system recently
authorized by the legislature will not be realized
for at least one more year. However, a reduction in
the number of second offenders and those returned
'for parole .violation can be expected as a result of
these programs.
POPULATION ESTIMATES
Based on best available projections the estimated
male population at the prison in 1960 will be 1328
and 1965 will be 1606.
INSTITUTIONAL PROGRAM
Statistical information furnished by Warden Ey­man
gives a classification of prisoners which indi­cates
that they require varying degrees of control
and treatment. Accordingly, within the limitations of
the physical facilities available, maximum-close,
medium and minimum security programs have been
developed .
Youthful first offenders are housed in the Insti­tute
for Education and Vocational Rehabilitation and
do not come in contact with the more seasoned
offenders.
A well planned work program for minimum se-curity
61derprisoners is· conducted on the ranches
that are a part of the prison property.
Maximum security prisoners are housed in the
regular cell blocks and' their work program is
handled under close supervision.
Among the important work programs at the in­stitutions
are the ranches, flour mill, bakery; textile
mill, cannery, license, plate and sign shop, prison
construction program, and the regular. services in
connection with operation of the prison.
At the textile mill, cotton grown on the prison
ranches is spun into thread, woven into cloth and
sewn into clothing for the prison and other state
institutions.
The cannery processes field crops grown on prison
ranches and secured through other channels to sup­ply
the prison needs. Other state institutions also
supply part of their needs through this source.
The license plate and sign shop produces license
plates for the highway department and other state
departments. It also manufactures stamped signs for
state use.
CAPACITIES AND STANDARDS
The kind of prisoners committed to the prison
governs the type of major construction projects re­quired
to provide institutional capacity. Maximum­close
security prisoners should be housed in cells in
walled institutions and employed within the walls.
Medium security facilities are not walled, a wire
chain link fence sufficing for boundary restrictions.
Most prisoners are housed in dormitories and em­ployment
may be within or without the enclosure.
Personnel supervision is emphasized for the preven­tion
of escapes. Maximum security prisoners may be
housed in open facilities of the ranch type where
prisoners are unlocked. They feature work outdoors
under the supervision of correctional officers or
foreman.
The department believes that locating a women's
prison in close proximity to a men's prison is con­trary
to all accepted theories of penology. Every
problem in connection with the relationships of the
sexes are magnified under confinement, and the

problems of confinement are likewise magnified by
the close proximity of the two institutions.
The accepted standard for prisons is based on one
man to a cell and fifty square feet of bed space per
man in dormitories. The condition at the prison is
not only one of lack of quantity of space but also lack
of quality. The following figures indicate that the
prison is 256 over capacity with a' population of
1107. men. This shows an over.capacity percentage
of 27%.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF INSTITUTIONS FOR JUVENILES
FORT GRANT, ARIZONA
This department operates a residential institution
for the reception and diagnosis, and for the treat·
ment and training of children and youths who are
committed by the juvenile or criminal courts for de·
linquent behavior.
Accepted national practices point to the desir·
ability of developing institutions based upon a phil.
osophy of working with homogeneous groups. A
maximum capacity of 150 for the youngest wards
and 300 for the oldest wards is most desirable. Ca·
pacity at Fort Grant in excess of these limitations has
been planned as an acceptable compromise due to
several factors. These are (1) Parts of the institution
have already been built tO'serve a 500 capacity (2)
Segregation of the older from the younger wards
within the same institution is feasible at that location
(3) Problems in financing state institutions.
DEFINITION OF CAPACITIES
The space standard allows an average sleeping
area of 54 square feet per ward, or 6'x9' per bed.
This represents space for each bed plus three
feet between beds and a five foot aisle. In determ·
ining total institutional capacity, all beds in regular
sleeping facilities, including segregation units, are
counted. This excludes capacities of detention units
and hospital units. Oetention beds are used for dis·
cipline and control of wards and are not considered
in computing institutional capacity. The standard of
detention beds to total capacity should be 10 per·
cent except for the youngest boys where detention
beds are not required. Segregation beds are. used
for special clasifications that cannot' adjust to group
living. This capacity need is based on approximately
8 percent of institutional capacity.
BASIC FACTORS AFFECTING AGENCY
PROGRAM POPULATION ESTIMATES
The impact of certain factors on the population
estimates could not be wholly reflected in the pro·
jections. These factors include the following situa­tions:
1. Urbanization in the state has caused a great·
er incidence of delinquency -
2. The juvenile courts have not committed boys
at the rate they would have had the state been able
to provide room for them at Fort Grant -
3. Wards would have been retained for longer
periods, in mal')Y cases, had the state been able to
provide room for them at Fort Grant.

It is the recommendation of this commission that
a branch institution with a capacity of 150 be
planned for activation in the 1960-61 fiscal year.
This residential facility should be near one of our in­stitutions
of higher education and should handle
only the youngest wards. It is recommended that a
site be acquired during 1957-58 fiscal year.

CAPITOL BUILDING STUDY
This appendix indicates the general scope of the new capitol building
program and the factors which have influenced its design to date.
The whole program may be considered as consisting of two separate but
inter-relating phases; namely, the planning for growth in the capitol area on a
very long chronological scale, and planning for expected capitol area needs
within the immediate ten to fifteen years. The longer range project has been
pursued by the planning architects mentioned earlier in this report and infor­mation
pertinent to that phase will be covered under separate cover. It is the
project for immediate building which we outline herein. (It should be noted
that both phases have been studied simultaneously so that one is compatible
with the other in philosophy, design and factual data.)
A program for any architectural undertaking must begin in certain factual
data. An intensive survey, to determine space requirements, departmental
relationships and effective use of existing areas, was completed in 1954 by the
Associated State Capitol Architects. Since this data was basic, and therefore
still generally applicable, it remained to revise this information to comply in
current attitudes regarding expected population and governmental growth of
this state. The recapitulation of areas, departmental listings, and estimated
costs which follow are the answers obtained from this revised basic data.
There are, of course, numerous ways of interpreting statistics. Architec­turally,
the aim is to culminate the whole effort with a scheme that satisfies both
statistical conditions (eg; location, use of existing structures and space require­ments)
and esthetic considerations (eg; style, materials and shapes). A history
of the various approaches to the problem is indicated by the following drawings
which were presented to th~ Planning and Building Commission during the
last few months.
The work mentioned in this appendix touches the highlights of what has
been done to date. The latest design shown in the drawings is currently being
pursued in more detail for presentation in the near future.
