Dan presented the quarterly commissary report required by statute, explaining that CPC—the vendor handling visitation and phone services—collects funds from inmates and remits a portion to the county commissary account. He said the presentation is statutory and described commissioners as the oversight 'watchdog.' Dan referenced a recent state audit in another county alleging about $300,000 in misappropriation as context for why oversight occurs.
Dan also raised operational facility concerns: he reported the jail is down to one functional boiler and that losing the remaining boiler would cause "major problems." He said a vendor will meet at 11:30 to demonstrate the equipment and present possible solutions; he estimated a replacement could be needed and an emergency procurement may follow. He asked commissioners and council members to attend a follow-up on-site or meet at 11:30 for the vendor presentation.
On the commissary funds, the record contains a spoken figure reported as "2340540 dollars and 18 cents" for the current commissary account balance in the meeting record; the transcript is unclear on numeric formatting. Dan emphasized that the commissioner body should raise concerns if any spending appears inconsistent with statute.
No formal vote accompanied the facility or security discussion; staff requested and received direction to schedule an executive session to resolve sensitive security details and prepare cost information for later formal action.
