DETENTION FACILITIES, NORTH PATROL DIVISION
Dear Sheriff Luna:
The 2023-2024 Comprehensive Inspection of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's
Department Station Jails has been completed. A pre-inspection briefing was held on
Tuesday, March 5, 2024, and the following facilities were inspected between Tuesday,
April 16, 2024 and Wednesday, June 12, 2024:
FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE
Lost Hills Station Jail 1670 IJ
Palmdale Station Jail 1750 IJ
West Hollywood Station Jail 1860 IJ
Lancaster Station Jail 1871 IJ
Santa Clarita Station Jail 1800 IJ
Santa Clarita Valley Station Jail 1801 I
These inspections were 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, Board of State and Community
Corrections (BSCC) staff conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and
Institutions Code Section 209(f) and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency
Prevention Act (JJDPA).
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.
INSPECTION RESULTS
We identified the following items of noncompliance with Title 15/Title 24 Minimum
Standards:

Title 15 § 1027. Number of Personnel:
A sufficient number of personnel shall be employed in each local detention facility to
ensure the implementation and operation of the programs and activities required by
these regulations. Whenever one or more females are in custody, there shall be at least
one female employee who shall be immediately available and accessible to such
females.
The Lancaster Station lacks adequate personnel to meet the required supervision
of persons in custody and to complete the safety checks. The Lancaster Station is
very limited in female custody staff who are available when females are in custody.
Title 15 § 1027.5 Safety Checks:
(c) Safety checks for people in sobering cells, safety cells, and restraints shall occur
more frequently as outlined in section 1055, section 1056, and section 1058 of these
regulations.
(e) There shall be a written plan that includes the documentation of all safety checks.
Documentation shall include:
(1) the actual time at which each individual safety check occurred.
(2) the location where each individual safety check occurred, such as a cell, module, or
dormitory number.
The Palmdale, Lancaster, and Santa Clarita Valley Stations, all have issues with
safety checks.
- The Lancaster and Santa Clarita Valley Stations failed to check the
Sobering Cell as required.
- The Santa Clarita Valley Station safety checks were not random.
- The Palmdale, Lancaster, and Santa Clarita station logs do not record the
actual time checks and cells checked.
Stations not using the scanner system had logs that did not reflect the actual time
and cell checked. Stations that use the scanner systems report problems with the
consistency and reliability of the system.
Title 15 § 1029. Policy and Procedures Manual:
Each facility administrator shall, at least annually, review, evaluate, and make a record of
security measures.
The Santa Clarita Valley Station did not have a record of the Commander's
Annual Inspection as required by this section and department policy.

Title 15 § 1045. Public Information Plan:
Each facility administrator of a Type I, II, III, or IV facility shall develop written policies
and procedures for the dissemination of information to the public, to other government
agencies, and to the news media.
The Santa Clarita Valley Station did not have a Public Information Plan available
as required by this section.
Title 15 § 1056. Use of Sobering Cell:
Intermittent direct visual observation of people held in the sobering cell shall be
conducted no less than every half hour.
The Lancaster and Santa Clarita Stations’ sobering cell logs had cell checks with
times that exceeded the 30 minutes as required.
Title 15 § 1062. Visiting:
(a)(2) A publicly posted schedule of facility visiting hours. If practicable, visiting hours
should be made available on weekends, evenings, or holidays.
The Santa Clarita Valley Station did not have a visitation schedule posted in the
public lobby.
Title 15 § 1147. Supervision of Minors in Secure Custody Inside a Locked
Enclosure:
(a)(2) safety checks, as defined in Section 1006, of the minor by staff of the law
enforcement facility, at least once every 30 minutes, which shall be documented.
The West Hollywood Station had held two minors in a secure cell and there was
no documentation of required safety checks on the logs.
Title 15 § 1148. Supervision of Minors in Secure Custody Outside of a Locked
Enclosure:
The decision for securing a minor to a stationary object for longer than 60 minutes and
every 30 minutes thereafter shall be based upon the best interests of the minor and shall
be documented.
The Lancaster Station logs for securely held minors outside the Jail cuffed to a
fixed object, did not contain documented safety checks.

Title 24 § 1231.2.1. Reception and Booking:
A cell or room for the confinement of inmates pending their booking and complies with
Section 1231.2.2.
In the Santa Clarita Valley Station, there are processing rooms with phones for
both males and females, however, these rooms do not meet 1231.2.2
