An in-person pre-inspection briefing was held April 2, 2019 and by conference call, January 17, 2020. 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. 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) for the separation requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the issuance of statewide and local shelter in place orders, BSCC staff are prohibited from traveling and unable to complete on-site inspection from March 16 through June 30, 2020, the end of the 2018/2020 biennial inspection cycle. BSCC staff conducted virtual inspections via desk audit of all facilities originally scheduled for inspection during this time. Desk audits are comprised of a comprehensive review of all applicable policies and procedures and documentation (where available). BSCC staff intend to conduct a comprehensive on-site inspection of all local detention facilities as soon as travel restrictions are lifted. The following documentation was reviewed: • Calexico Police Department Policy Manual • Staffing Plan • 2020 Environmental Health • 2019 Fire Inspection • 2019 Fire and Life Inspections • 2019 Cell Inspections • 2019 Security Review • Classifications and Medical Screenings 0960 Imperial Calexico TH LTR 18-20 Chief Gerardo CPD THF Page 2 The BSCC inspection report consists of this transmittal letter and the attached Title 15 Procedures Checklist.

All policy and procedure areas are now current and consistent with regulatory expectations except for the following that remain non-compliant. Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information. • Section 1024: Court Holding and Temporary Holding Facility Training Neither initial training nor refresher training has been provided to staff who supervise inmates in the temporary holding facility.
