(KNZA)--Bids are being sought for two projects at the Doniphan County Law Enforcement Center.

According to the unofficial meeting minutes, Sheriff Chad Clary informed the Doniphan County Commission, when they meet Monday, that bids are being sought to replace the rooftop cooling units to prevent humidity and moisture buildup inside the building.

In addition, Clary said bids are being sought to make an opening in the Law Enforcement Center building large enough to replace the hot water tank system.

Commissioners asked Clary about re-locating the system to the basement of the building and re-routing waterlines. Clary said he would ask contractors about the possibility.

Clary also told the Commission he is exploring the possibility of housing out-of-county inmates and asked commissioners about a portion of the inmate rental income going back into the sheriff's budget to offset meal costs.

The Commission said due to the sheriff's budget being within the county general fund, any revenues brought in would be used to offset his budget.

The Commission suggested Clary track actual revenues and expenses for housing out-of-county inmates for 2023 budgeting purposes.
