22. Jail Plans Regarding Housing Of Federal Inmates By housing 96 Federal Inmates in existing portion of Smith County Central Jail at $45.00 minimum per day per inmate = $1,576,800 per year gross. Once salaries for additional personnel & inmate meals are factored in, this would allow for an excess of $1,117,000 net annually. Medical is paid by the Federal Government. This allows Smith County to recover funding that has been expended out of county over the past several years to house our inmates.
