BACKGROUND:

In April 2014, historic flooding and a subsequent explosion left the Escambia County Jail's Central Booking and Detention Facility unusable. Since the Escambia County Main Jail did not possess the capacity needed to house all of the inmates that were in custody, a Memorandum of Agreement between Escambia County and the Walton County Sheriff's Office was entered into for the housing of inmates. The Corrections Department would like to request a change order in the amount of $3,360,000 to cover the fees related to housing inmates in Walton County for a period of 12 months. This request is based on the housing cost over the most recent 6 month period.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

Funding is available in Internal Service Fund 501; Building Cost Center 140836; Object Code 53401.
