Approximately 2010-2011. The heliport identifier was likely decommissioned and removed from aviation databases upon the completion of the new San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office building and its replacement rooftop helipad.
Facility replacement and modernization. The heliport identified as US-11147 was rendered obsolete and replaced by a new, modern rooftop helipad (FAA LID: 5CL3) constructed on top of the new Sheriff's Office building at the same government complex. This was not a closure due to economic or safety issues, but rather a planned upgrade.
The exact physical location of the former heliport is now part of the expanded San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office complex, located at 7000 Michael N Canlis Blvd. The area is now occupied by buildings, access roads, or parking lots. Helicopter operations for the Sheriff's Office continue from the same address, but they now use the active, modern rooftop helipad designated as 'San Joaquin County Sheriffs Office Helistop' (FAA LID: 5CL3).
The name 'Jones Heliport' is likely a legacy or database name for the former heliport serving the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office at their French Camp campus. Its operations were exclusively for law enforcement and public safety. The Sheriff's Air Support Unit used the heliport for missions including aerial surveillance, patrol, search and rescue, and tactical support for ground units throughout San Joaquin County. It was a private, non-public facility critical to local law enforcement operations before the new facility was built.
None. The heliport designated as Jones Heliport (US-11147) is permanently closed and will not reopen, as it has been physically and operationally replaced by a superior facility (5CL3) at the same location. The original identifier is now obsolete.
