The sheriff's detention center page says the 60-bed facility opened in December 1996 behind the courthouse, about 23 miles north of Salina off U.S. 81. It holds contract inmates from other agencies as well as local arrests, so a person from elsewhere may be housed here.

The detention center also runs 911 dispatch for the county, sending calls for the sheriff and for the Minneapolis and Delphos police departments.

According to the sheriff's page, deputies serve Minneapolis, Delphos, Culver, Tescott, Bennington, Ada, Wells, Niles and Verdi. Minneapolis PD (209 N. Sheridan St., 785-392-3062) and Delphos police (785-523-4361) book their arrests into the county jail.

Call 785-392-2157 with a full name and birth date, or look the person up on VINELink. Because contract inmates are held here, ask whether the hold belongs to Ottawa or another agency.

None are posted. A written open-records request can be sent to the sheriff (K.S.A. 45-215), though some records may be withheld. Immigration photos require an ICE FOIA request.

Minneapolis is where the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office keeps its headquarters, and deputies there serve the county's warrants; reach them at 785-392-2157. Kansas runs no statewide warrant search. Minneapolis district court cases, on the other hand, are open on Kansas CaseSearch, and a bench warrant appears in the file. Your lawyer can agree on a day with the court and the jail, and then you go in to the Ottawa County Jail on your own. Minneapolis's district court clerk, 307 N. Concord, takes calls about missed hearings at 785-392-2917.
