Body
STRATEGIC PLAN:
This action supports the following areas of your Board's Strategic Plan.
Area of Focus: Core Services/Other
Strategic Plan Category: 9999 - Core Services/Other
DISCUSSION:
For continuity of operation within both the Correctional Facility and for the Sheriff's Work Alternative Program (SWAP) it is necessary to replace equipment periodically. Many of the washers and dryers in the facility are over 10 years old. These machines are used daily to wash clothing for the more than 300 people incarcerated in the facility. Purchasing more modern equipment will allow for a more efficient operation of laundry services.
The current trailer used by SWAP to landscape various areas of the county is falling apart. It has been in service for over 20 years. Over that time, it has served its necessary purpose but needs to be replaced. This piece of equipment is vital to providing the SWAP participants a restroom during work assignments, as well as the storage and transporting of all necessary equipment.
Both of these items are necessary to continue to provide both laundry in the facility and landscaping in the community.
