BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Previous Commission action/date:
January 5, 2021 - The Baldwin County Commission approved an Amendment to the Agreement between the Baldwin County Commission and the Baldwin County Sheriff wherein, the Sheriff of Baldwin County and the Baldwin County Commission mutually agree to the sharing of $62.00 per diem per Federal prisoner as provided in the contract from the U.S. Marshals Service as follows: $24.80 per day per Federal prisoner to the Baldwin County Commission (40%); and, $37.20 per day per Federal prisoner to the Sheriff (60%).
At this time, staff brings this item back to rescind the action taken on January 5, 2021, due to the Staff Recommendation incorrectly listing the monetary allocations. The action before the Commission on January 19, 2021, will correct the percentages.
Background: The Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office has had a long-standing agreement with the Baldwin County Commission for the sharing of the Federal Prisoners Housing Per Diem funds that the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office receives from Federal agencies who house inmates in the Corrections Center.
