Speaker 6, Warden, reported 39 male admissions and 15 female admissions during June for a total of 54 admissions, and 57 male releases and 15 female releases for a total of 72 releases. \"As far as releases, we had 57 male releases, 15 female releases for a total of 72. The population as of the June was 128 total inmates. That was a 107 males and 21 females,\" the Warden said. The Warden reported an average population for the quarter of 141 inmates and a year-to-date total of 443 admissions.

Medical and transport activity for the month included six transports: two to orthopedics, three to specialists, and one to a cardiologist; no hospital stays were reported.

Work release staff (Speaker 2) reported the work-release program had consisted of five inmates during the month and had three inmates currently on the program. Net income for the month was $7,123.33, with a breakdown provided in the report: room and board $1,925.00; core cost $275.00; inmate payments $4,823.33; and an escrow deposit of $100.00.

The maintenance report said Johnson Controls changed out servers for the camera system and repaired a door-panel computer and two water leaks. \"Johnson control came in and they changed out the servers for the camera system,\" the maintenance speaker said. The report also noted regular service by Seitz Brothers and replacement of outdoor filters at the dog shelter.

The board discussed repeated incidents of a bear ripping open the animal shelter dumpster. Maintenance staff reported seeing the animal on multiple mornings and said the bear had ear tags. \"Maybe we can get ahold of the game connection? Maybe they can trap it and move it. I'm just because it already has 2 tags in 1 ear,\" Maintenance staff (Speaker 4) said. Board members considered options including moving the dumpster inside the fenced prison area, using the covered dumpster at the county 911/communications center, buying a heavier bear-proof dumpster with metal sliding doors, or building a fenced enclosure. One member noted the comm center dumpster has metal sliding doors to make repairs tougher.

No final procurement decision was made. The board asked staff to obtain price estimates for a bear-resistant dumpster and for fencing and to bring the cost comparisons to the next meeting. \"But just for your information because I'm not sure what the additional cost was for the bigger dumpster or the repair proofing. Why don't we get a price and see what it'd be till next meeting?\" a board member said.

Members also raised broader water-supply concerns. The maintenance report cited correspondence from the Department of Environmental Protection advising the county that the animal shelter's second well should not be relied on as a backup source. The board discussed options: identifying an alternate water source, installing a smaller backup potable tank, or other measures to reduce recurring tanker costs when the single, aging storage tank at the prison is taken offline for inspection. The meeting record notes the existing storage tank is about 30 years old and will require another inspection in a year or two.

A maintenance speaker recounted the last time the county brought in a temporary mobile tank and pump setup for the prison and reported a quoted cost: \"I wanna say it was around $4,445,000. Yeah. Correct,\" (Maintenance staff, Speaker 4). The board did not adopt that figure as final cost; members asked staff to provide precise estimates and breakdowns (installation, pump equipment, recurring tanker deliveries) for comparison with the cost of constructing alternative solutions such as an additional fenced-in water storage or a second permanent source.

Discussion-track items identified by the board included obtaining formal price quotes for a bear-resistant dumpster and for fencing, checking whether the comm-center dumpster could be used (and whether unlocking/keys or extra fees would apply), and contacting wildlife authorities about the tagged bear. The board did not take formal action on procurement or on water infrastructure during the meeting.","Board members heard maintenance updates including camera server replacements, repeated bear activity at the animal shelter dumpster, DEP correspondence saying the shelter's second well cannot be relied upon as a backup, and discussion about acquiring a backup water tank or new source.","actionData","errors"]
