January 13, 2025 Armando Orozco, Chief of Police Calexico Police Department 420 E. Fifth Street Calexico, CA, 92231 2023-2024 COMPREHENSIVE INSPECTION, PENAL CODE SECTION 6031, WELFARE & INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209, CALEXICO POLICE DEPARTMENT TEMPORARY HOLDING FACILITY Dear Chief Orozco: The 2023-2024 Comprehensive Inspection of the Calexico City Police Department has been completed. A pre-inspection briefing was held on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, and the following facility was inspected on Thursday, November 7, 2024: FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE Calexico City Jail 0960 THJ This inspection was conducted pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031 to determine compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations. In addition to inspection(s) by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the County Health Officer and biennially by the State Fire Marshal or an authorized representative (Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1). The results of those inspections are considered a part of this report. During the onsite inspection, facility supervision could not provide the Temporary Holding Facility’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOP); therefore, the facility was initially noncompliant with several sections of Title 15. However, after the Exit Brief, staff located the SOP and provided it to the BSCC for review. Below are the initial items of noncompliance, the corrected items, and the remaining noncompliant items. INSPECTION RESULTS We identified the following items of noncompliance with Title 15 Minimum Standards on the day of inspection: Title 15 § 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual, Subsection (6): Agency policy does not state that staff will conduct an annual review and evaluation of the facility for security measures to include measures specific to the prevention of sexual abuse and sexual harassment. Armando Orozco Chief of Police Page 2 Additionally, facility staff did not provide documentation that an annual review and evaluation for security measures occurred in 2023 or 2024. Title 15 § 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual, Subsection (a)(7) (A-F): These sections were initially noncompliant due to the lack of a facility-specific emergency operations manual; however, once the SOP was reviewed, BSCC staff determined compliance with these regulations. Title 15 § 1032 Fire Suppression Preplanning, Subsections (a, c, d, and e): These sections were initially noncompliant; however, once the SOP was reviewed and the biennial fire inspection was completed by the Calexico Fire Department, BSCC staff determined compliance with these regulations. Title 15 § 1046 Death in Custody, Subsection (b): This section was initially noncompliant; however, once the SOP was reviewed BSCC staff determined compliance with this regulation. Title 15 § 1046 Death in Custody, Subsection (c): Agency policy does not state the initial review report shall contain the demographic information, facility information, and any relevant circumstances leading up to death, including behavioral health or medical issues as stated in this regulation. Title 15 § 1067 Access to Telephone: During the onsite inspection agency supervision stated there was no telecommunication device for the hearing or speech impaired; therefore, they were initially noncompliant. However, after the exit brief, facility staff explained third- party communications assistance is offered for compliance with this regulation. Refer to the attached Procedures Checklist and the Initial Inspection Report for detailed information. Refer to the Physical Plant Evaluation and Living Area Space Evaluation attachments for information related to Rated Capacity and Title 24 compliance. CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN (CAP) An Exit Briefing was held with your staff on Thursday, December 19, 2024; BSCC staff presented an overview of the inspection and discussed technical assistance and best practice recommendations. BSCC staff reviewed and provided an Initial Inspection Report for noncompliance items found during the inspection.
