proceeding to accomplish some of the recommendations given by this
group. One measure is to provide an exercising site for inmates.
Some options that could be used to remedy some of the problem areas
are:
1) Pouring a concrete slab (exercise)
2) Setting aside a section for a library
3) Transporting some of the inmates to the Burke Co. Facility
($40 per bed -- to get them off the floor)
4) Seeking other ways to reduce the population.
Mr. Mashburn mentioned there was a manufacturer that makes mobile
units that can house several inmates; however, the unit would have to
be placed near the present facility. Inmates housed in these would
have to incarcerated for minor offenses due to lessened security. A
unit could be purchased for $50,000, but this doesn't include power
and set-up costs. The City of Statesville has agreed to give a
temporary permit.
