Summary
CCHOC Superintendent Brian King asked the commissioners for permission to spend up to $25,000 from inmate commissary funds to buy and install an Outdoor‑Fit Apollo Multi‑Gym and concrete pad; vendor quote lists $17,975 for equipment and freight, and installation quotes are being solicited.
CCHOC Superintendent Brian King told the Carroll County Board of Commissioners on July 27 that he is requesting authority to expend up to $25,000 from inmate commissary funds to purchase outdoor exercise equipment and install a concrete pad for the county jail.
King said the proposal would use funds derived from commissary processing fees that are held in a separate, interest‑bearing account and may be used only for inmate benefit. The written vendor quote from Outdoor‑Fit lists an Apollo Multi‑Gym and freight at $17,975; Superintendent King said separate installation quotes for the pad are being solicited. The equipment vendor documentation in the packet lists a 25‑year limited structural warranty and a 2‑year warranty on moving parts.
