You’re hilarious.
ROI on BM prison nothing.
ROI on Tent prison nothing.
Tent’s are probably 1/1000 of the cost of the jail. Particularly when you take into account government surplus, FEMA surplus and inmates making tents in prison workshops.
Actually tents like that are pretty expensive. They didn’t get them from anybody’s surplus. Meanwhile the hot AZ sun eats cloth and rubber and rubberized cloth for lunch. They were spend $4.5 million a year on Tent City. For 24 years.
Laugh all you want but the facts are in:

Tent City was a waste of money that existed only to bolster Arpaio’s ego. The thing was 3/4 empty already. Way past time for it to end. Probably shouldn’t have survived into the 21st century. It was a boondoggle, Arpaio was a boondoggle. Time to move on.
