The Daily Times Leader reports that West Point will now pay $68,000, which is the cost of two jailers' salaries plus benefits.
The city will also be responsible for paying $3.20 per inmate meal as well as booking fees to the county.
Officials say the total amount the city will pay is about $84,000 a year.
Under the old contract, which was terminated by the county in May, the city was being billed a flat rate of $30 per inmate and would have been billed $35 a day per inmate if the city decided not to renew a contract with the county.
