Between 1971 to about 1985, the Oskaloosa Jail only was composed of two cells that were sat right next to one another in the communications portion of the Oskaloosa City Hall.

The patrol officers were responsible for processing and booking the inmates while the dispatchers would be the ones who oversaw supervising the inmates as the city jail had no real detention officers.

Then in 1986, the Oskaloosa Jail moved to the Oskaloosa Municipal Center. This new jail would be composed of six single cells alongside three holding cells near the booking area. The patrol officers would then again oversee processing and booking inmates while the dispatchers would still oversee supervising the inmates.
