County jail experiencing leaks; maintenance and inspections planned
Summary
Chief Deputy Danny Staley told commissioners the county jail has multiple leaks; staff are using buckets and blankets to collect water while maintenance and AC filter replacement are scheduled and the engineer will inspect drainpipe causes.
Chief Deputy Danny Staley reported ongoing leaks in the Geneva County jail, with staff using blankets and buckets to collect water from multiple areas. Courthouse maintenance removed standing water from a ceiling and Bynum's was scheduled to replace air‑conditioning filters this week.
Staley said the department believes the source may be drainpipes. Commissioner Weston Spivey volunteered to inspect the problem to help determine the cause and next steps. The commission discussed maintenance scheduling and possible repairs but did not vote on specific capital or repair expenditures at the July 28 meeting.
