CONSENT JUDGMENT ENTRY WITH A STIPULATED POPULATION ORDER
PER CURIAM.
1. This action was commenced on November 14, 2003 by Nathaniel Roberts, James Joseph Mancini, Joshua Baird, Kevin Whitacker, Mike Hamad, Rodney Gray, Leland Scott and Maurice Barnes as named Plaintiffs on behalf of all persons who are or who will be confined at the Mahoning County Justice Center.
2. Plaintiffs alleged in their complaint that conditions at the Justice Center violated the United States Constitution, the Ohio Constitution, Statutory Laws of the State of Ohio, and rules and regulations promulgated by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. Plaintiffs sought Declaratory and Injunctive Relief on behalf of the class. This action was brought against the County of Mahoning, acting through the Mahoning County Board of Commissioners and Randall A. Wellington, acting in his official capacity as the duly elected Mahoning County Sheriff. Upon imposition of this Three Judge Court the City of Youngstown intervened. Hereinafter Plaintiffs, Defendants, and Intervenor are collectively referred to as "Parties".
3. The Mahoning County Justice Center consists of two buildings, with close to 800 inmates being housed at the time of trial. The main facility is located at 110 Fifth Avenue, Youngstown, Ohio ("Justice Center"). The second building is called the Minimum Security Mahoning County Jail located at 360 W. Commerce Street, Youngstown, Ohio ("MSJ"). This building housed over 100 inmates and was closed in the spring of 2005. Its reopening is addressed later in this order. For purposes of this order the Justice Center and MSJ will be collectively referred to as "County Jail Facilities."
CLASS CERTIFICATION
4. The Plaintiffs in their Complaint moved this Court to certify this as a Class Action pursuant to Civil Rule 23(a) and 23(b)(2). The Parties hereto stipulate and agree to the following:
A. This action was certified as a class action pursuant to Rule 23(a) and 23(b)(2) of the Fed. R. Civ.P on March 5, 2004.
B. That there are questions of law and fact common to the class. The Parties agree that: The named Plaintiffs claim and allege that Defendants have engaged in a common course of conduct toward them, and have instituted a pattern or practice of conduct, or effectuated policy and procedure all of which affect the entire class as a whole. The factual allegations made by the named Plaintiffs, by their very nature, are the type of allegations and claims which are common to other inmates at the Mahoning County Jail, past, present, and/or future. Common questions of law arise from these facts.
C. The claims of the representative Parties are typical of the claims of the class. The claims are typical since they arise from the same event or practice or course of conduct which gives rise to the claims of other class members. The claims of the named representatives are based on the same legal theories as those of the entire class. Due to the fact that there is a commonality and typicality between the claims of the named Plaintiffs and the class, declaratory and injunctive *722 relief is appropriate for the entire class.
D. The representative Parties have fairly and adequately protected the interest of the class. The interests of the named Plaintiffs are not and have never been antagonistic to those of the class. Counsel for the named Plaintiffs, Robert P. Armbruster and Thomas Kelley, have demonstrated their competence to vigorously prosecute the interest of the class and are experienced in the handling of cases of this type.
E. On March 5, 2004, the Court certified the following class:
All persons in the care or custody of the Mahoning County Sheriff and incarcerated on or after November 12, 2003 at the Mahoning County Justice Center, 110 Fifth Avenue, Youngstown, Ohio, ("Justice Center"), and also all persons in the care or custody of the Mahoning County Sheriff and incarcerated on or after November 12, 2003 at the Mahoning County Minimum Security Jail, 360 W. Commerce Street, Youngstown, Ohio ("MSJ").
F. The Plaintiff class has made no claims for damages.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE
5. The Court has jurisdiction over the Parties and subject matter of this case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1343(3). Venue is properly before this Court.
6. On December 13 through 15, 2004, the above captioned matter was tried to this Court. The named Plaintiffs, both pre-trial detainees and convicted prisoners being held in the custody of the Defendant Sheriff at the Justice Center, alleged the facilities were understaffed and overcrowded, creating unsafe and dangerous conditions for the inmates. Plaintiffs alleged that the lack of staff resulted in (1) the frequent lockdown of inmates for lengthy periods of time, (2) the inability to provide programs and services to the inmates, including but not limited to, recreation, visitation, religion, and inmate counseling programs, and (3) an inability to safely and securely house inmates. The inmates further alleged that the staff was not properly trained. Plaintiffs also alleged that the facilities were poorly maintained, creating unhealthy and dangerous conditions for the inmates. They also asserted that inmates were locked down in cells with toilets that accumulate human waste because they could not be flushed. They alleged that intercoms in cells did not work, prohibiting the inmates from contacting staff during periods of lockdown. Plaintiffs also claimed that the jail does not provide adequate legal resources or a legal access program, thus violating their constitutionally guaranteed right of access to the courts.
7. The Parties agree that the Plaintiffs have exhausted all administrative remedies prior to filing this lawsuit as a proposed class action.
FINDINGS
8. As a result of the trial, the Court made extensive findings of fact and conclusions of law based on the testimony of inmates, experts, staff members and administrators who work at the jail. Said findings of fact and conclusions of law are contained in the Memorandum Opinion issued by this Court dated March 10, 2005. (Doc. No. 93), 2005 WL 5569487, 495 F.Supp2d 670. That Memorandum Opinion is adopted as if it was fully rewritten here.
PRISON LITIGATION REFORM ACT COMPLIANCE
9. The Court, in compliance with 18 U.S.C. § 3626(f)(2)(A), (B), and (C), appointed a Special Master (Doc. No. 108), 2005 WL 5569488, 495 F.Supp.2d 693. *723 Upon the recommendation of the Special Master, the District Court directed the Defendants to create a Criminal Justice Working Group to develop a remedial plan consistent with the United States Supreme Court's decision in Lewis v. Casey, 518 U.S. 343, 116 S.Ct. 2174, 135 L.Ed.2d 606 (1996). The District Court's Order constituted an order for less intrusive relief in compliance with 18 U.S.C. § 3626(a)(1) of the PLRA (Doc. No. 193), 2006 WL 4606651, 495 F.Supp.2d 694. On May 1, 2006, the Criminal Justice Working Group issued its final report (Doc. No. 191) but was unable to arrive at a solution that would solve the unconstitutional conditions at the jail created by overcrowding.
10. The District Court has previously entered orders in this case that have failed to remedy the deprivation of Plaintiffs' constitutional rights. Defendants have had a reasonable amount of time to comply with the previous court orders. Thus, the prerequisites for convening a three judge court as set forth in 18 U.S.C. 3626(a)(3)(A) have been satisfied.
11. In accordance with the District Court's May 25, 2006 Order (Doc. No. 193), this Three Judge Court was empaneled on June 8, 2006. (Doc. No. 194), 2006 WL 4606652, 495 F.Supp.2d 708.
12. On July 27, 2006, the City of Youngstown moved to intervene (Doc. No. 207) and was granted intervention (Doc. No. 209), 2006 WL 4606650, 495 F.Supp.2d 712. Subsequently this Court set the matter for trial on May 16, 2007 (Doc. No. 224), 2006 WL 4606656, 495 F.Supp.2d 713.
13. The Three Judge Court appointed Special Master Vince Nathan as the Court's expert for this phase of the litigation (Doc. No. 191). Mr. Nathan was charged with the task of collecting data and preparing an expert report of his findings and his opinion with respect to (1) whether crowding at the jail is the cause of constitutional violations, and, if so, (2) whether there is any other viable form of relief, short of a prisoner release order, that could remedy the violations. Pursuant to this Court's Order, Mr. Nathan investigated the issues, and on December 3, 2006, filed a report containing his findings and his conclusions with this Court (Doc. No. 229). The findings and conclusions set forth by this Court's expert demonstrate that the jail is overcrowded resulting in violence to inmates and staff, that crowding is therefore the root cause of a constitutional violation and that there is no other viable remedy to cure the constitutional violation. (Doc. No. 229).
14. As a result of Mr. Nathan's report, Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Immediate Injunctive Relief on December 18, 2006 (Doc. No. 232). This Court set the matter for an emergency hearing to be held on December 28, 2006 at 9:30 a.m. (Doc. No. 234). The City of Youngstown filed a Response to Motion for Immediate Injunctive Relief (Doc. No. 237), and Mahoning County Defendants filed a Brief in Support of Plaintiffs' Motion for Immediate Injunctive Relief (Doc. No. 239).
15. At the hearing, Mr. Nathan authenticated his own expert report and this Court adopted his report and made it part of the record. Mr. Nathan answered preliminary questions from the panel and counsel for the Parties. In addition, all Parties agreed and stipulated that based on current staffing and population as highlighted in Mr. Nathan's Expert Report the conditions of the Jail are unconstitutional. After consideration of the briefs and arguments at the hearing, the panel confirmed that it would take the matter of Plaintiffs' Motion for Immediate Injunctive Relief under advisement (Doc. No. 245), 2006 WL 4606655, 495 F.Supp.2d 718. In the interim, the Court directed Judge Polster to engage in mediation. Judge Polster met *724 with the Parties on January 3, 2007 at which time a tentative agreement was reached.
16. On February 28, 2007 the Three Judge Panel issued an Interim Stipulated Population Order (Doc. No. 251). Said order was issued with the purpose of immediately addressing overcrowding in the facility.
PARTIES
All Parties agree that:
17. The provisions of this Consent Order shall apply and be binding upon the Parties to this action, their agents, officers, employees, assigns, successors in interest and any persons acting in concert or privity with any of the Parties.
18. This Order shall in no way limit the Parties' claims or defenses in other actions, and shall not be interpreted as an admission to the validity of any other claims filed by members of the inmate class.
19. This Order shall govern as an order addressing those findings made in the memorandum opinion of this Court, the findings and conclusions raised in Mr. Nathan's Expert Report and those findings made in the Interim Stipulated Population Order. The Parties agree that this Order is narrowly drawn and intended to address only those factual findings and conclusions of law mentioned herein. The Parties agree and certify they are aware of no less intrusive way to address these findings and conclusions of law.
20. Now therefore, and upon consent of the Parties, based upon the need to address the above findings and conclusions of law, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED AS FOLLOWS:
21. The Court has jurisdiction over the Parties and subject matter of this case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1343(3) and 18 U.S.C. § 3626. Venue is properly before this Court.
22. The District Court has previously entered orders in this case that have failed to remedy the deprivation of Plaintiffs' constitutional rights that are remedied with this Order. Defendants have had a reasonable amount of time to comply with the previous court orders. Thus, the prerequisites for convening a three judge court as set forth in 18 U.S.C. 3626(a)(3)(A) have been satisfied.
23. This Court finds that this relief is narrowly drawn, extends no further than necessary to correct the violation of the Federal rights found violated, and is the least intrusive means necessary to correct those violations of Federal rights. 18 U.S.C. § 3626(a)(1)(A). Moreover, this Court has considered and weighed any adverse impact on public safety and the effect on the operation of a criminal justice system in Mahoning County. 18 U.S.C. § 3626(a)(1)(A).
24. This Court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the terms of the Interim Stipulated Population Order strike a balance between the interest in public safety and the interest in maintaining a constitutional jail as it provides for the incarceration of all violent felons and for the reopening to maximum occupancy of all the jail facilities under the control of Mahoning County, while at the same time protecting the constitutional rights of inmates in the County Jail Facilities.
25. This Court finds by clear and convincing evidence based on the entire record that (1) crowding is the primary cause of the violation of a Federal right, and (2) no other relief will remedy the violation of the Federal right. 18 U.S.C. § 3626(a)(3)(E)(i) and (ii).
26. Thus, this Court finds that the factual predicate for imposition of a prisoner *725 release order, as set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3626(a)(3)(E), has been established.
AGREEMENT TO MEDIATE DIFFERENCES
27. It is anticipated that this Consent Order will be monitored by Plaintiffs' counsel, or by any monitor subsequently named by the Court, according to terms outlined later in this Order. The Parties hereby agree that any alleged violations of this agreement found by the Parties, before being brought to the attention of this Court, shall be mediated. Such mediation shall consist of a meeting of Plaintiffs' counsel and the appropriate Defendants and Intervenor. The complaining Party's counsel shall state in writing any alleged violation necessitating a meeting and give Defendants and Intervenor notice to investigate and then meet with counsel. If, after the meeting, the Parties indicate that they cannot resolve by way of agreement the problem discussed, any Party shall have the right to bring the alleged violation to the attention of this Court to either enforce the provisions of this Order or seek relief from the provisions of this Order.
INMATE POPULATION/RELEASE ORDER
28. Now, therefore, upon stipulation of the Parties, based upon a need to address the population issue immediately, the Three Judge Panel orders that the Overcrowding Release Policy attached as Exhibit A in Doc. No. 251 be adopted to effectuate the following population limits and housing classifications designations.
POPULATION
29. Decisions on capacity are based on standards which include square footage of cells and square footage of day-areas with sufficient programming for inmates. The Defendants agree to abide by these housing capacities.
30. All inmates classified as Maximum Security shall be single celled. All other medium and minimum security inmates may be double celled.
31. The Sheriff has adopted the practice of using boats (temporary beds) and placing mattresses on cell floors to create additional capacity. The Parties hereby agree that all boats shall be removed from general housing and inmates should only be housed on bunks affixed in cell units with the exception of medical housing.
32. The Parties agree to the following population/housing plan for the Justice Center. Said plan is based on the Sheriff properly classifying inmates as provided in paragraph 43 below and placing inmates in housing pods that are consistent with the classification. Nothing in this order shall forbid the Parties from meeting at a later time to agree to changes in the classification of housing units in the Mahoning County Jail.

Defendants may choose to use D Pod to house one of two groups of inmates  either inmate workers or minimum security inmates
Minimum Security Facility (MSJ)
33. The Parties agree that a maximum of ninety-six (96) inmates can be housed in the MSJ. All are to be sentenced nonviolent misdemeanant inmates, or non-violent sentenced 4th and 5th degree felons.
34. The Parties acknowledge that the National Institute of Corrections has undertaken a study of the County Jail Facilities. The National Institute of Corrections has recommended that the facility be run at 90% of capacity to allow for proper classification of inmates.
35. The Parties agree that within the Justice Center, all units classified as minimum security pods shall house no more than 90% of the total usable beds allotted to that classification. The Parties agree that all medium security ranges shall house no more than 90% of the total usable beds allotted to that classification. The Parties have agreed that all maximum security pods shall house no more than 90% of total usable beds allotted to that classification.
36. When arrests are undertaken in such a manner that the Sheriff is unable to plan for an influx of inmates to protect the public, the Sheriff may fill each pod up to the total available beds for use not to exceed a period of 24 hours on weekdays, 48 hours on weekends and 72 hours on holiday weekends. However, in no event shall the population in any pod exceed the total number of usable beds. The Sheriff shall have 24/48/72 hours to reduce the population back to said figure 10% below the total beds available for use which allows for the proper classification.
37. When numbers exceed those set forth, the Sheriff shall implement the Overcrowding Release Policy approved by all Parties and this Court which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated as if fully written herein. The Overcrowding Release Policy shall not apply to City Prisoners held pursuant to the Boarding of Prisoners Agreement entered into by Defendants and Intervenor and attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated as if fully written herein. The granting or revoking of bail shall not be construed to prevent release under this Order. The Sheriff shall have a right and authority to *727 release any and all prisoners regardless of any order from any other state or municipal court in order to maintain a population cap consistent with this Order except as provided in the Boarding of Prisoners Agreement attached as Exhibit B.
STAFFING
38. This Court, on March 10, 2005, found that staffing levels at the County Jail Facilities were insufficient. The Court went into an extended analysis of studies done at the jail and its history of staffing levels.
39. The Parties agree that these studies will be used as a basis for staffing at the County Jail Facilities. These studies broke staffing down according to posts at each facility. The Parties hereby agree to use a direct supervision model requiring that all posts identified throughout the County Jail Facilities to be staffed on a 24/7-hour basis. When fully open, the Sheriff shall employ 168 line officers to posts which include floats (147 for Justice Center and 21 for MSJ).
40. It is also agreed when fully opened that the Defendants shall employ 18 supervisory staff.
41. It is finally agreed when fully opened the Defendants shall employ 23 jail clerical, support, administrative, and command staff.
42. It is the Parties' intent that upon the opening of any new pods, that the Parties reach an agreement that there are sufficient staff to open those pods and properly staff each identified post. It shall be the Defendants' responsibility to demonstrate that sufficient staff are employed and trained prior to filling all posts on a 24/7 basis prior to the opening of any additional housing areas. This includes posts for floats and supervisory staff as identified.
CLASSIFICATION
43. The Sheriff has developed and adopted a population/classification plan that will allow the Sheriff to comply with capacity standards specified herein and classification guidelines recommended by the National Institute of Corrections. Said plan allows the facility to be operated in compliance with these standards. Said plan is attached here as Exhibit C. The Sheriff may find it necessary to change or amend said plan from time to time with the approval of Plaintiffs' counsel.
TABLES
44. Defendants acknowledge that some pods do not have sufficient table space for all inmates to sit at meal time. Sufficient tables shall be added to day rooms to allow all inmates to sit at meal time.
TRAINING
45. The Court made findings that staff training was deficient since 2001. It was found that the staff assigned to the Corrections Division had little or no training in policy direction to perform at levels compliant with minimum confinement standards. The Court also found since 2001, only one fire drill had been conducted and that did not involve the movement of inmates.
46. Defendants agree to fully train all staff in compliance with minimum standards for jails in Ohio.
47. The Parties agree that the Sheriff will implement training programs and put in place an active fire drill program that involves the movement of inmates. All activities involving fire safety and training shall be logged in writing and made available to monitor/Plaintiffs' counsel for verification purpose.
48. The Parties agree and understand that the Defendants are hiring up to at least 60 additional deputy sheriffs. These new deputy sheriffs shall be given complete *728 correction officer training prior to being stationed alone in the facility.
LEGAL ACCESS
49. The Defendants at one time had a legal access program provided by the University of Akron's Law School Legal Clinic. The program was suspended due to lack of funds in September 2003. The program has been re-instituted and is presently operational. The Parties recognize that, because of the prior agreement to keep the population at 300 inmates, said legal access program is running at one-half of its intended capacity. Defendants agree to make said program fully operational prior to the re-opening of the final pod in the jail. The Parties agree that said program meets constitutional requirements for providing legal materials to inmates.
50. The Parties agree that notices about the legal access program shall be posted on each pod throughout the jail.
DISCIPLINARY ISSUES
51. The Court in its findings of fact, found an unusually high number of inmate-on-inmate assaults, inmate-on-staff assaults and miscellaneous incidents of violence and use of force. The Court found that these statistics are a direct result of insufficient staffing and overcrowding. Parts of this Order are meant to address those concerns. The Parties agree that Sheriff shall keep incident reports documenting all inmate-on-inmate assaults, inmate-on-staff assaults and miscellaneous incidents of violence and use of force. Said reports shall be made available when requested to Plaintiffs' counsel. If unusually high numbers of assaults are found, the Parties agree to meet to mediate this problem.
MAINTENANCE ISSUES
52. This Court has made numerous findings in regards to maintenance issues at the County Jail Facilities.
53. The Defendants agree that to keep the County-Jail-Facilities systems operational and limit breakdowns, a minimum number of maintenance people need to be employed in order to assure seven-day-a-week day turn, five-day-a-week afternoon turn, and weekend call out ability.
54. Staff radios have had a history of frequent problems due to old and worn out batteries. Defendants agree to keep an adequate supply of new batteries available to prevent staff radios from breaking down.
55. An intercom unit is located in each cell throughout the facility. The intercom provides communication with each guard station on each range to each cell. The intercom also provides communication from cells to the jail's central control. Intercoms have been a prevalent source of breakdowns. The Parties agree that said intercoms are a vital part of providing for the safety and security of inmates and deputy sheriffs throughout the facility. The Parties agree that Defendants shall keep all intercoms fully operational and maintain a written log monitoring inspection, breakdown and repair of the intercoms. This log shall be available to monitor/Plaintiffs' counsel for review.
56. Defendants agree to buy and maintain sufficient inmate mattresses, linen, clothing, and food trays.
57. The Court found numerous instances of CCTV cameras being broken, and computer screens which do not work. The Sheriff has implemented a program of inspection and agrees to upgrade and maintain the integrated security systems, including hardware and software within the next six (6) months. The Sheriff has maintained and will continue to maintain a maintenance log that records inspections, all reported camera/computer screen breakdowns throughout the facility, and repairs made thereto. Said maintenance *729 logs shall be available to Plaintiffs' counsel for inspection.
58. The Court made findings as to the general cleanliness of the facility and found it to be hazardous to the health of inmates, security staff, and civilian workers in the jail. The Sheriff has implemented a program to make daily inspections and Defendants will continue to insure that showers are clean, washing machines are operational, and all facility fixtures are operational and the sufficient cleaning supplies exist. The Sheriff has recorded and will continue to record inspections in a log.
59. The Defendants agree to properly maintain cell doors, locks, visitation phones, computer software systems, elevators, air handling systems, heating systems, and all other systems and components regulating life-safety, security, and safety of the County Jail Facilities and their occupants. Defendants shall regularly inspect each of these systems, making necessary repairs. All inspections and repairs shall be kept in a log.
60. The Defendants agree that the MSJ physical facility shall be assessed for all maintenance defects and addressed prior to re-opening. Upgrades and maintenance prior to opening shall be discussed and explained to Plaintiffs' counsel.
61. Defendants agree to provide a security upgrade for the inmate/public visitation areas.
LOCKDOWNS
62. This Court made findings that as a result of lack of staff, the inmates at the Justice Center were frequently locked down for lengthy periods of time.

These logs shall be maintained and made available to Plaintiffs' counsel for inspection.
RECREATION

MONITORING
64. During the pendency of this Order, Plaintiffs' counsel shall monitor and review Defendants' compliance with the terms of this Order. Said monitors shall visit at least monthly and no more than twice a month to review compliance.

ATTORNEYS FEES
66. The Plaintiffs and Defendants have reached an agreement in regards to the payment of attorneys fees associated with the trial of this matter. Said fees were agreed paid through May 28, 2006. Since that time, Plaintiffs counsel has on a quarterly basis filed hours reflecting attorneys fees. Defendants shall have the right to review and question the accuracy of said hours but nonetheless agree to pay Plaintiffs counsel said fees within thirty (30) days of the signing of this Order at a rate of $186.00 per hour.
*730 67. The Plaintiffs and Defendants anticipate that additional attorneys' fees will be associated with monitoring and enforcement of this Order. Said costs of monitor/Plaintiffs counsel and/or Plaintiffs' counsel shall be paid on a yearly basis. Defendants shall pay costs for reasonable monitoring fees/reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses approved by this Court on an annual basis. Monitoring rates are to be billed at an office rate not to exceed $150.00 an hour. The rates for actual legal work including in court or out of court brief writing are to be billed at a rate of $186.00.
CONTINUING JURISDICTION
68. The Parties understand and agree that the County Jail Facilities shall be fully operational and at maximum capacity as defined in this Order by August 1, 2007.
69. This Court specifically retains jurisdiction over this action for three years to ensure compliance and to issue additional Orders as required by Justice or as the Parties may request. All additional changes shall be in writing.

EXHIBIT B
AGREEMENT FOR THE BOARDING OF PRISONERS BETWEEN THE COUNTY OF MAHONING AND THE CITY OF YOUNGSTOWN
This Agreement is entered into this 23 day of Feb., 2007 between the County of Mahoning, Ohio ("County") and the City of Youngstown, Ohio ("City").
Whereas, municipal and county governments are permitted by law to enter into agreements for the provision of services to the public;
Whereas, the Commissioners of the County have adopted Resolution 07-02-029 authorizing this Agreement on behalf of the County; and
Whereas, the Council of the City has adopted Ordinance ORD-07-31 authorizing the Board of Control to execute this Agreement on behalf of the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises set forth herein, the parties agree for themselves and their respective successors and assigns as follows:
1. Purpose and Scope of Services:

A. Upon the effective date of this Agreement, the County shall keep and maintain 30 beds available for housing of City prisoners as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. The County shall keep, board, and maintain up to 30 City Prisoners in the Mahoning County Justice Center and/or the Mahoning County Minimum Security Jail (hereinafter collectively referred to as "County Jail Facilities"). For this period City Prisoners held for direct contempt shall not be counted in the 30 prisoner allotment.
B. Commencing May 1, 2007 the County shall accept seventy one (71) City Prisoners for incarceration in the County Jail Facilities as defined *734 in Section 2 of this Agreement.
C. Commencing August 1, 2007, or upon full operation whichever is earlier, the County shall (1) have County Jail Facilities fully staffed and operating at the maximum capacity and (2) accept all City Prisoners not to exceed two hundred and twenty one (221).
C. The City recognizes and agrees that the County may hold Federal Prisoners in the County Jail Facilities to the extent otherwise consistent with this Agreement. But the County agrees that it will give first priority to City Prisoners up to the maximum capacity of federal prisoners eligible to be held on any given day.
2. City Prisoner Defined:

A. "City Prisoner" shall be defined as any prisoner accepted for booking or judicially ordered confined in the County Jail Facilities by judges of the Youngstown Municipal Court as a result of a misdemeanor offense that occurred or allegedly occurred in the City of Youngstown whether charged under City ordinance or state law.
B. Those prisoners who are charged with felony offenses and City charges on a concurrent basis shall not be counted as City Prisoners except when confinement for felony charges is not required (i.e., because of bond or case disposition status) but confinement under the misdemeanor(s) continues by order of the Youngstown Municipal Court,.
C. Those prisoners initially charged with felony offenses which are reduced to misdemeanor offenses or dismissed in the Youngstown Municipal Court will be regarded as City Prisoners from the initial date of booking.
D. Those prisoners confined under City charges and misdemeanor charges of some other jurisdiction shall be counted as City Prisoners during any time that their confinement is required solely by order of the Youngstown Municipal Court.
E. Those prisoners who are confined under City charges and misdemeanor charges of some other jurisdiction shall be counted as a City Prisoner if an order from the Youngstown Municipal Court prevents the County from transferring custody of the prisoner to the other jurisdiction. At such time as the other jurisdiction takes custody of the prisoner, the prisoner will no longer be counted in the then current allotment of City Prisoners. The County will make reasonable efforts to notify the Youngstown Municipal Court of any new significant criminal charges or detainers that are filed against a City Prisoner.
3. Cost Per City Prisoner:

A. For each City Prisoner up to seventy-one (71) per day as applicable under the terms herein, the City shall pay the cost of meals and the cost of medical services not covered under the terms of the County's Medical Services Agreement. The terms of coverage and rates for medical services of City Prisoners negotiated by County shall mirror those for County Prisoners.
B. For each City Prisoner housed in excess of seventy-one (71) prisoners per day the City agrees to pay the same per diem-per prisoner amount that is paid by the federal government for the housing of federal *735 inmates under the County's Intergovernmental Agreement with the federal government. The parties recognize that this agreement can change from time to time. The present agreement provides for a per diem in the amount of $68.84; a copy is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by reference.
4. Medical Services:

A. As provided in section 3A of this Agreement the County agrees to provide City Prisoners with the same level of medical care and services provided all other prisoners. And the City agrees to pay the actual medical costs of City Prisoners that are not covered under the County's present Medical Services Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference.
B. The County agrees to promptly notify the Sentencing Judge of all medical cases requiring removal of a City Prisoner from the County Jail Facilities. If the Sentencing Judge is unavailable, the Mahoning County Sheriff shall notify the Administrative Judge of the Youngstown Municipal Court. If emergency medical services are required the notification shall be as soon as possible. If non-emergency medical services are required prior notice shall be made prior to removal of a City Prisoner. All costs associated with hospital or health care services provided outside County Jail Facilities will be reimbursed by the City if not covered under the County's Medical Services Agreement. In the event Mahoning County is a party to any contract that provides discounted rates from medical providers or facilities for treatment of jail inmates provided outside County jail facilities, the City of Youngstown will be afforded the same discounts.
C. The County shall provide guarding of City prisoners receiving medical treatment outside the Mahoning County Jail which does not result in the admission of said prisoner for more than one overnight stay ending prior to 12:00 noon of the following day. By mutual agreement, the Youngstown Police Department will be given at least six (6) hours notice by the Sheriff that the sheriff will cease guard services when more than one overnight stay will be required. The purpose of such notice is to give the City an opportunity to provide a city officer to guard such City Prisoner(s). Unless and until the City responds by providing said officer for guarding, the County agrees to continue to guard said prisoner(s), and the City agrees to reimburse the County for the wages paid to guard the city prisoner for more than the first night's stay as defined above.
5. Billing:

At the end of March, June, September, and December, the County shall submit to the City an itemized statement certified by the Sheriff of the County or his designees, showing the name of the City Prisoner, dates of days confined in the County Jail Facilities, the number of days billed, charges billed, and the amount due from the City for each City Prisoner's confinement under this Agreement. All billings, less any credits directly related to the Agreement, are due to the County and shall be paid within thirty (30) days of receipt.

*736 6. Daily Prisoner List

The Mahoning County sheriff shall provide a list of all City Prisoners on a daily basis to the Youngstown, Municipal Court Judges.
7. Prisoner Release Order:

The City and the County recognize and agree that the Sheriff has the obligation and authority to refuse to accept or to release any City Prisoner when such act is necessary to comply with any Prisoner Release Ordered by the Court in Roberts v. Mahoning County, U.S. District Court Case No. 4:03cv2329 which is/are incorporated herein by reference. But the County agrees that City Prisoners will not be refused acceptance or released to the extent such City Prisoners are held consistent with this Agreement.
8. Budget and Funding

The Parties agree that the Board of Commissioners and City Council and the Board of Control will provide funding to ensure full compliance with this Agreement.
9. Criminal Justice Working Group

For purposes of encouraging an efficient delivery of services pursuant to this Agreement and any related impact upon the judicial system and law enforcement services of Youngstown and Mahoning County the parties will reinstitute periodic meetings of the Criminal Justice Working Group ("CJWG"). The CJWG shall meet as least monthly for the purpose of resolving any difference that may arise pursuant to this Agreement or to recommend procedural changes that will benefit the parties.
10. Modification:

It is understood that terms of this Agreement may only be modified in writing by the mutual consent of the parties and as approved by the court in Roberts v. Mahoning County, U.S. District Court Case No. 4:03cv2329.
11. Transportation:

The City remains responsible for the transportation of City Prisoners to City courts.
12. Term:

The term of this contract shall be for three (3) years.

INCARCERATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN MAHONING COUNTY AND CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF AMERICA
This Agreement is hereby entered into between Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) and Mahoning County, Ohio (the County) as of November 21, 2003.
WHEREAS, the County is party to an Intergovernmental Service Agreement ("IGA") with the United States Marshals Service ("USMS") to house federal inmates, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by reference;
WHEREAS, CCA owns Northeast Ohio Correctional Facility ("CCA Facility") in Ohio and desires to house federal inmates at the Facility;
WHEREAS, the USMS need for inmate beds exceeds the capacity of Mahoning County Justice Center ("MCJC"); and
WHEREAS, CCA has available space at the CCA Facility;
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. The parties understand that this Agreement is subject to the provisions of the Amended Agreement between The City of Youngstown, Ohio and CCA of America pursuant to Ohio Revised Code § 9.07 and the Development Agreement (collectively "9.07 Agreement") a copy of which 1., attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference. The parties agree that the 9.07 Agreement *739 shall supercede this Agreement in the event of a conflict in terms.
2. Upon reaching a population of 200 federal inmates in the MCJC, the County will house any additional USMS inmates received pursuant to the IGA in the CCA Facility unless CCA does not accept said inmates in accordance with paragraph 3 below. The County shall have the option to offer federal inmates to CCA prior to reaching the 200 inmate threshold at the MCJC but shall have no obligation to do so. CCA shall provide services for federal inmates housed in its Facility in compliance with the terms of the IGA.
3. The County will not amend, terminate or otherwise change the terms of the IGA without advance notice to CCA. CCA is not obligated to accept USMS federal inmates from the County at the CCA Facility if space is not available or if the IGA is materially changed to CCA's detriment without CCA's approval or if the acceptance of the inmates would be financially impractical for CCA as determined by CCA.
4. CCA shall indemnify, defend and save harmless the County, its agents, employees, and representatives from and against any and all suits, actions, claims, demands, damages or losses arising from CCA's operation of the CCA Facility. CCA expressly recognizes that such duty to indemnify, defend and save harmless is inclusive of CCA's duty to indemnify, defend and save harmless the County, its agents, employees, and representatives as set forth in the 9.07 Agreement to which the County, its agents, employees and representatives are contractual third party beneficiaries.
5. The County will pay CCA the per diem fee paid to the County pursuant to the IGA less an administrative fee per inmate for each federal inmate housed at CCA pursuant to this Agreement and the IGA. As of the execution of this Agreement, the per diem amount under the IGA is $67.00 and the County's administration fee shall be $1.00. If the per diem set forth in the IGA increases above $67.00, the fee shall increase by an equal amount but shall not exceed $3.00. CCA agrees to submit the necessary documentation for payment to the County as set forth in the IGA. The County will pay amounts due to CCA within thirty (30) days after receipt of funds. To the extent allowed under the IGA, CCA will be designated Payee and funds due pursuant to the IGA will be paid directly to CCA. In such instance, CCA will deduct the administrative fee and forward that amount to the County within thirty (30) working days of receipt of funds.
6. During the term of this Agreement, CCA shall not execute a direct agreement with the United States Marshal for the Northern District of Ohio to house inmates detained under the authority of that Marshal if such an agreement would place CCA in competition with the County facility and would prevent the County from housing such inmates. This provision shall not apply if the County is housing a comparable number of federal inmates at a per diem equal to or greater than the per diem set forth in the IGA or if the County elects to no longer make beds available to the Marshal or otherwise if such direct agreement would not be to the County's detriment.
7. The term of this Agreement shall commence on November 21, 2003 and shall be for an initial period of five (5) years with three options to renew for five years each upon mutual agreement of the parties.
8. Either party may terminate this Agreement if a breach of this Agreement by the other party remains uncured for *740 thirty (30) days after the date of notice of said breach.
9. The failure of performance of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement resulting from acts of God, war, civil insurrection or not shall not be a breach. This provision does not include those acts of insurrection or riot that are caused by the by the federal inmates or as a result of the negligence of the employees or agents of CCA.
10. The provisions of this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and shall not be construed as conferring any rights on any other person or entity.
11. This Agreement shall be interpreted by the laws of the State of Ohio, and courts within Ohio shall preside over any legal action filed to enforce or interpret this Agreement.
12. This Agreement shall not be altered, changed or amended except in writing executed by both parties.
13. This Agreement incorporates all the agreements, covenants and understandings between the parties. Other than the 9.07 Agreement and IGA Agreement, no prior contract or understandings, verbal or otherwise, of the parties and/or their agents shall be valid or enforceable unless embodied in this Agreement.

*753 1.0 BID IDENTIFICATION
1.1 Background

The Mahoning County Justice Center is an eight story facility at 100 Fifth Avenue. This facility is directly across the street from our Minimum Security Misdemeanant Jail (MSMJ). The Justice Center is the central booking facility for all county law enforcement, including the MSMJ. It is a totally non-smoking facility. The facility has a total of 456 cells, of which 564 are general population, single and double cells, of various classifications. In addition to the 564, there are 10 booking and holding cells, which include two violent drunk cells (single occupancy), two multi-occupancy cells, and six standard cells. Fourteen (14) medical cells round out the total.
The 14 medical cells are split into two sections: the female area consisting of four cells, and the male side having ten cells. Of the four female medical cells, two are designed as "acute" care and are oversized to accommodate a hospital bed, one is standard size, and the fourth female cell is pressurized for infections tuberculosis. On the male side, there are also two "acute" care cells, one infections tuberculosis cell, and seven standard cells. Adjacent to the medical housing unit is out medical clinic, which consists of exam rooms, dental treatment, and a complete x-ray facility. The medical clinic will be staffed only on a scheduled basis. Sick call will occur in the various housing units and/or a classroom, which serves two adjacent housing units. A hospital curtain, sink and cabinetry have been included in the classroom design in order to achieve multiusage of the architectural space and reduce inmate movement.
The Sheriff's Department has a Minimum Security Misdemeanant Jail (MSMJ), which is located at 300 W. Commerce Street. It is a 3rd generation, direct supervision facility that held sentenced, non-violent offenders who were committed for six months or less. It housed a total of 96 inmates, 24 female and 72 male, and was opened October 1994. The average daily population was 60. Inmates were transferred to this facility after booking at the main jail. No smoking was allowed in the facility. However, inmates were permitted periodic smoke breaks in the outside recreation area.

INDEX AS: 609.1.1 Policy
          609.1.2 Scope
          609.1.3 General Information
          609.1.4 Re-Classification
          609.1.5 Minimum Security Jail (MSJ)
                  Classification
          609.1.6 Procedure
          609.1.7 Review of Classification Status
609.1.1 POLICY: Inmates will be classified by set criteria that shall be implemented to the maximum extent, consistent with the design and capacity of the jail in order to preserve security, safety, and order within the jail. This classification system will specify the criteria and procedures for determining the level of custody required, special needs, housing assignment and participation in programming. Inmates will be housed in their properly classified housing area.
*780 609.1.2 SCOPE: This policy will apply to the classification and housing assignment of all inmates by deputies performing jail booking duties and Inmate Systems Management (ISM) staff. If there are any questions or concerns pertaining to classification and/or housing assignment of inmates, staff will consult the shift supervisor.
609.1.3 GENERAL INFORMATION:
A. The criteria to be used in the classification system shall include, but not be limited to the following priorities:
A.1 Male and female prisoners are housed separately by sight, touch and out of range of normal conversation
A.2 Juvenile and adult
A.3 Violent and non-violent prisoners are not placed in the same cell or unsupervised areas together
A.4 Special needs (e.g., mental and physical handicap)
A.5 Prior incarceration history
B. During initial intake the booking deputy will complete the classification portion of the booking program. All of the sections of the classification tabs will be completed; inmate information, known history, jail risk, recidivism, evaluation and housing assignment.
C. Gender  the booking deputy will designate the proper sex of the prisoner.
D. Evaluation Form   The booking deputy will then complete the Evaluation Form of the Classification section in the booking software program.
D.1 Current Charges  The booking deputy processing the inmate will review all current charges that the inmate is charged with and determine the most serious offense using the appendix provided in this policy.
D.2 Prior Charges  The booking deputy will search the inmate's historical records to determine the most serious past offense using the appendix provided in this policy. If the inmate has no historical data in the booking system, the deputy will run a criminal history check to complete the classification process.
D.3 Escape History  Indicate any prior escape history.
D.4 History of Violent Crime Convictions  List number of violent crime convictions.
E. Once the Evaluation Form section of the classification program is completed, the computer software will recommend a housing unit classification of Maximum, Medium or Minimum Security. The prisoner will be placed in the appropriate housing unit for his or her classification as per section 6.0 of this policy.
F. Prisoners participating in work or educational release programs shall be housed separately from the general population. Such inmates, who classify to the Minimum Security Jail, will be housed at the MSJ as denoted in this Policy. Work and Educational Release prisoners who do not classify to the MSJ will be placed in a segregated housing unit.
G. If the booking deputy determines that no beds are available in the various designated housing units for each classification, the booking deputy will confer with ISM staff to relocate another inmate who is more compatible to house with others of a less severe classification. If re-classification of an inmate is required, ISM staff will follow the Re-Classification Procedure in section 4.0 of this policy. All possibilities will be utilized to ensure that a *781 prisoner is not housed in a pod that they do not classify to.
G.1 ISM staff will maintain a detailed list of all inmates reclassified and moved as a means to achieve maximum bed space allocation under the conditions described herein.
G.2 The ISM Supervisor and other designated supervisory staff will monitor such lists in order to determine adherence to this policy, proper utilization of bed space, means of reducing the inmate population, and developing rends so as to reduce the need for such population driven reclassifications.
H. After a prisoner has been properly classified and the admissions procedures are complete, staff shall escort the inmate to the appropriate housing unit.
I. If supervisors determine, by prior rule violations or current rule violations, that an inmate exhibits violent behavior towards staff or other inmates and/or is a high risk of escape, deeming it necessary to place additional security restrictions on that inmate, then the supervisor may increase the classification status or classify that inmate as "HIGH RISK". The supervisor will notify the Jail Warden of the "HIGH RISK" status with supporting documents of the incident or incidents and the reason for the restrictions on the appropriate forms.
J. If a prisoner has needs that fall into any of the following categories, the medical staff shall be notified, so it can be determined if special housing is required. If medical staff is not available, the supervisor will make a determination to place the prisoner in special housing or general population.
J.1 Suicide risk
J.2 Mental health problems
J.3 Communicable disease
J.4 Physically handicapped
J.5 Dependency on drugs and/or alcohol
609.1.4 RE-CLASSIFICATION:
A. Throughout the inmate's incarceration, ISM staff will review any new or updated information in order to make classification adjustments based on information that might be received after intake, court proceedings, medical examinations, or following disciplinary action for major or serious rule violations.
B. After any needed adjustments have been made in classification, the inmate will be reclassified and placed in the appropriate housing unit.
C. If an inmate is moved from one housing unit to another for reclassification purposes, adjustments will be made in the computer software records under the classification section of the booking system. Under the Housing Assignment tab, staff will be asked to change the classification from Minimum, Medium or Maximum. Staff must provide the reason for the re-classification change in the records.
D. All inmate housing concerns that may affect the need to transfer an inmate from one housing unit to another must be addressed by the Shift Supervisor and reviewed by ISM staff for conformance with this policy. At no time will a housing unit officer reassign an inmate to another housing unit. All housing unit adjustments and/or transfers must also be noted on the prisoner count board and the Cell Transfer tab of the booking program. Such interim transfers will be reviewed according to section 7.0 of this Policy.
*782 609.1.5 MINIMUM SECURITY JAIL (MSJ) CLASSIFICATION
A. Inmates classified to the MSJ will be limited to those prisoners sentenced or transferred by order of a judge for a traffic offense, misdemeanor or felony of the fourth or fifth degree that are not offenses of violence, as defined in section 2901.01(A)(9) of the Revised Code.
B. Eligibility for housing at the MSJ will also be based on the inmate's classification designation as determined within this policy. Inmates must be classified as Minimum Security and the classification decision to house a prisoner in the MSJ will include an evaluation to determine whether the prisoner is suitable to be housed in the minimum-security facility.
C. ISM staff will review the inmate's current offense and sentence, prior bookings, past inmate behavior and disciplines to determine placement at the MSJ.
D. Juveniles shall not be held in the Minimum Security Jail.
E. Determination to transfer a prisoner from the MSJ shall be made by the Jail Warden or designee based on the best interests of the prisoner, staff and/or the safe, secure operation of the jail.
609.1.6 PROCEDURE:
A. Prisoners will complete the booking process in its entirety and will be given an opportunity to secure release. If the prisoner fails to secure release, they will be classified to the appropriate housing unit as determined by the housing assignment classification recommendation.
B. General Population housing assignment at the Justice Center will be determined by Maximum, Medium and Minimum Security classification. Once all information has been compiled and entered into the jail management software classification program, a composite score will be given and a classification security level will be recommended.

These juveniles are those whose criminal case is transferred to the Common Pleas Court for prosecution. Any juvenile so held shall be confined in a manner that keeps the juvenile beyond the range of physical touch of all adult detainees unless those juveniles have been convicted and sentenced as adults.
G. Any classification action which significantly deprives a prisoner of privileges afforded other prisoners, or in any way places him/her in a lesser status, shall be justified in writing (i.e., access to telephone or programming, etc.).
609.1.7 REVIEW OF CLASSIFICATION STATUS
A. The ISM night turn staff will review all inmate classifications nightly by running a "Classification By Pod" roster in the Mahoning County Reports in the computer booking software system.
