2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF ANTIOCH POLICE DEPARTMENT, ANTIOCH PUBLIC
SAFETY FACILITY TEMPORARY HOLDING FACILITY, PENAL CODE 6031
Dear Chief Brooks,
On July 26, 2020, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted the
2020-2022 biennial inspection of the Antioch Public Safety Building Jail. A pre-inspection
briefing was held on May 19, 2021.
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, this inspection was performed to determine compliance
with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24,
California Code of Regulations (CCR). In addition, BSCC staff conducted compliance monitoring
pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) for the federal Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA).
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of this transmittal letter; the Title
15 Procedures Checklist outlining applicable minimum standards; a Physical Plant Evaluation
outlining Title 24 requirements for design; and a Living Area Space Evaluation summarizing the
physical plant configuration and showing the capacity of the facility. Refer to the Title 15
Checklist for indication of compliance status and evidence used to determine compliance.
LOCAL INSPECTIONS
In addition to the biennial inspection 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). Please consider our report in
conjunction with the reports from the County Health Officer and the respective fire authorities for
a comprehensive perspective of your facilities. Local inspection reports are forwarded to your
office under a separate cover.

Due to COVID-19 measures, the County Health Department has not conducted an in-person
inspection of the Temporary Holding Facility. Contra Costa County Health Department has
issued a Permit to operate and will complete the in-person inspection as measures are lifted by
the County Health Authority.
BSCC INSPECTION
The inspection consisted of a review of the Antioch Police Department General Orders that apply
to Jail Operations, a site visit to review operations, physical plant and relevant documentation,
and interviews with administration and facility staff.
Title 15, CCR Inspection
Our evaluation consisted of reviewing only those policies and procedures related specifically to
the applicable regulations included in Title 15, CCR.1 We found no items of noncompliance.
Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information.
Title 24, CCR Physical Plant
There were no changes made to the physical plant of the temporary holding facility. We found
no items of noncompliance.
Please refer to the Physical Plant Checklist for detailed information.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance Monitoring
The BSCC monitors local detention facilities for compliance with the JJDPA; in 2018/2019 no
minors were held beyond the 6-hour limit for secure detention.
It was noted that the forms being used to record the detention of minors do not contain all
required entries. Technical assistance was offered during the out brief to utilize the BSCC
supplied forms and available training material.
Corrective Action Plan
There were no noncompliance issues as noted above.
This concludes our inspection report for the 2020-2022 biennial inspection cycle of the Antioch
Police Temporary Holding Facility. We would like to express our gratitude to Lieutenant Powell
Meads for his assistance during this inspection. We look forward to working with you in the future
