ANNEX JAIL – SB 1022 BSCC PLAN REVIEW NUMBER 019.0706.01 A31-132
Dear Sheriff Zanoni,
On Wednesday, October 30, 2024, BSCC staff conducted a pre-opening inspection of the
newly constructed West Annex Jail. The purpose of this inspection was to determine
compliance with the applicable Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as
outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations (CCR). The 2008 version of
Title 24 Regulations was applied as these regulations were in effect at the time of the
original submittal of the project.
The inspection report includes this letter, a Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24
requirements for the facility design and furnishings, and a Living Area Space Evaluation
that summarizes the facility’s configuration and rated capacity. We encourage the practice
of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections and this file should
be the first point of reference when preparing for all future inspections.
No issues of noncompliance were identified during the inspection relating to the Facilities
Standards and Operations (FSO) division of the BSCC. However, since this facility was
constructed with the assistance of the Adult Local Criminal Justice Facilities Construction
(SB1022) grant, a final inspection by the BSCC’s County Facilities Construction (CFC)
division is required prior to populating the facility.
We would like to acknowledge the efforts of everyone with whom we have interacted with
during the entire planning and construction process. The result is the culmination of their
efforts in successfully constructing a facility that will serve the needs of your community
for many years.
This concludes the pre-opening inspection report. We very much appreciate your
commitment to operate safe and secure detention facilities in compliance with the
California Code of Regulations. Should you have any questions or comments relating to
this inspection, please contact me directly at (916) 956-1559 or by e-mail at
