Attention Beryl Lipton
Reference: Request for air temperatures and climate controls for the Vermilion parish jail.
Your request for the above information should have been directed to parish government (Vermilion Parish Police Jury) because they actually own the parish jail and are responsible for the maintenance, whereas the Sheriff is only responsible for the security of said jail.
In the interest of time, I forwarded your inquiry to the jail maintenance supervisor who is employed by the Vermilion Parish Police Jury (Ms. Roberta Boudreaux) and she in turn provided this information:
The Vermilion Parish Jail:
1. Houses 150 inmates.
2. Has 31 air conditioners that provide climate control for offender housing.
3. Has zero fans used for climate control of offender housing areas.
4. The thermostat controls for air conditioners for this time of year is set 70 degress.
The Vermilion Parish Sheriff has no other jail facilities under security supervision.
If more information is needed on this request, I suggest that you direct your inquiry to the:
Vermilion Parish Police Jury
Attention Ms. Linda Duhon
Vermilion Parish Police Jury Secretary.
