SANTA ANA – The additional 173 U.S. Marshals Service inmates that Santa Ana agreed to house temporarily at Santa Ana Jail will generate about as much revenue as the facility lost from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s recent contract termination. On a 6-1 vote, the City Council on Tuesday, Aug. 15, approved an appropriations adjustment recognizing $10,217,316 for 10 months of additional jail operations-related revenue in the fiscal year 2017-18. The jail contract that ICE terminated in May represented a roughly $11-million-a-year loss for the city. “We just had a surprise end-of-the-year loss with the (ICE) federal agency, so this effectively plugs that hole back in at least for two years,” said Councilman Jose Solorio, adding that the new contract moves the city “forward in terms of what we do with our jail because it is an asset.” Council members have been divided on the future of the 20-year-old jail that has long been operating at a loss but on Aug. 1, with the exception of Mayor Pro Tem Michele Martinez, they voted in favor of accepting 173 more U.S. Marshal’s Service inmates for two years while a detention facility in Los Angeles undergoes renovation.
