An addendum to Lyon County’s contract for jail services with Murray County will mean the latter will pay more to house inmates.
The contract the Lyon County Board of Commissioners approved on Tuesday will raise the daily charge for Murray County to $125 per day in 2027. The cost includes booking, on-site nursing visits, laundry and meals for each inmate.
Work release fees collected from work release-eligible Murray County inmates will be deducted from the per-day fee that Murray County pays for the housing of a Murray County inmate for calendar year 2027.
