Captain Kevin Wood, Jail Administrator
“As an administrator I can tell you that I have experienced the difficult and frustrating tasks of running a proper food operation within a jail while keeping other jail operations running. Since the first day you took over the food operations in this facility a huge weight was lifted from our shoulders. Personnel and staffing issues, inventory and quality of food, dietary issues, Federal and State statues; these are just a few of the long list of issues that I no longer have to deal with.”
