Dependency Court 4343 CH San Bernardino co-Foothill 4355 CH San Bernardino Justice Center 4357 CH 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 item of noncompliance with Title 15 Minimum Standards for all Type I and Court Holding facilities: Shannon D. Dicus Sheriff Page 2 § 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual: The department was found noncompliant with the requirement that requires the policy and procedures manual to be comprehensively reviewed and updated at least every two years. The department operates on several types of policies and procedures; Department Manual, Detention and Corrections, Type I, Court Holding Manual, and Operations Manuals. Several portions of these policies need to be updated. After the document review, the department noted the sections where updates are needed. Some updates were made prior to this report and directives were sent out to all personnel to ensure accountability for updated procedures. The department is working towards centralizing policy and procedure to avoid misunderstandings. It is also noted that the department’s last review of the Court Holding manual was in 04/2022, and the Type I manual in 12/2022. Refer to the attached Procedures Checklist for detailed information. There were no items of noncompliance with Title 24 Minimum Standards. Refer to the Physical Plant Evaluation (PHY) attachment for detailed information related to Title 24 compliance and the Living Area Space Evaluation (LASE) for rated/non-rated capacities. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance Monitoring We found no violations of the JJDPA as your facilities do not hold minors for detention. CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN (CAP) An Exit Briefing with your staff was held on Thursday, May 2, 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. A Corrective Action Plan (CAP) is pending. The BSCC is aware you have begun addressing your noncompliance issue by reviewing your policy and procedures manuals, updating relevant sections, and providing directives for your personnel. The item of noncompliance above will require a follow-up inspection to verify compliance and/or the steps your agency has taken to correct the issues within 60 days of your CAP due date. We will respond to the CAP under a separate cover letter once received. * * * Please email me at jovin.adamos@bscc.ca.gov or call (916) 207-7074 if you have any questions. 4240+ San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Dept.
