The Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office is responsible for the monitoring, safety, and well-being of on average 1,495 inmates each day. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic the average length of stay for inmates has increased due to back logs in the court systems and staffing levels have decreased. The Sheriff's Office will use the funds to install two additional cameras in the sleeping sections, two cameras in the common areas of the bathroom's, one camera in the cleaning closet, and one additional camera in the sally port entering the house unit. By monitoring these lower custody inmates remotely the majority of the time, Sedgwick County is able to more effectively utilize the number of staff members.
