Kern County, Taft Police Department (2018-2020 inspection cycle)

May 15, 2020 Damon McMinn, Chief of Police Taft Police Department 320 Commerce Way Taft, CA 93268 2018 – 2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION TAFT POLICE DEPARTMENT BSCC# 1122 PENAL CODE SECTION 6031; WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209; JUVENILE JUSTICE AND DELINQUENCY PREVENTION ACT Dear Chief McMinn: On February 13, 2020, the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) staff conducted the 2018 – 2020 biennial inspection of the Taft City Type 1 Jail pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031 and Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) Section 209. The jail was inspected for compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) requirements for holding minors. We provided a Pre-Inspection Briefing on September 3, 2019, in order to review recent modifications and updates to Title 15 to ensure compliance. The inspection consisted of a walk-through of the physical plant, a review of applicable written policies and procedures governing the operation of the facility, and a review of documentation to verify that practices follow written procedures. Lieutenant Pete Aranda was present during the inspection and assisted by answering questions and clarifying procedural issues. His involvement in the inspection process was extremely valuable. The professionalism and courtesy extended is appreciated. The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of: • This transmittal letter; • The Procedures Checklist outlining applicable Title 15 sections; • The Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for design; and, • The Living Area Space Evaluation that summarizes the detention facility configuration. 1122 Kern Taft PD T1 Jail 18-20 Local Inspections: In addition to a biennial inspection by the BSCC, inspections are also required by the County Health Officer and the State Fire Marshal or local fire inspector (Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1). Please consider our report in conjunction with the reports from the Health Department and the fire inspector for a comprehensive perspective of your facility. Fire Inspection: Health and Safety Code Section 13146.1 requires a biennial inspection for fire and life safety issues. This was completed on September 17, 2019. Fire clearance was granted with no cited deficiencies. Health Inspections: The local health authority is required to conduct annual inspections of all local detention facilities and includes evaluation of medical/mental health and the environmental health standards. The nutritional requirements are not applicable for temporary holding facilities. The dates of the most recent inspections on file with our office are listed below. Inspection Date Health-Environmental March 12, 2019 Health-Medical/Mental Health March 21, 2019 Health-Nutrition March 21, 2019 No issues of non-compliance were noted in any of the local health inspection reports. We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of BSCC inspection files along with the local inspections outlined above. Additionally, you should maintain documentation of how and when areas of non-compliance/concerns are resolved. BSCC Inspection Physical Plant: Completed in 1991, the Taft City Jail is inspected as a Type I Jail and evaluated using the 1988 Title 24 regulations1. The facility consists of nine cells with a housing capacity of 13 inmates, as well as three holding cells and one sobering cell with a capacity of 23 inmates. There were no inmates in custody at the time of the inspection. The jail was clean and appeared well maintained. No issues of non-compliance with applicable physical plant standards were identified. Please see the Procedures Checklist for detailed information. The agency has determined youth will not be held in secure detention, however; if necessary, the physical plant allows for youth to be held in a single cell, away from adult inmates in custody, in a locked interview room or cuffed to a secure rail. There were no youth held in secure detention during the 2018- 2020 biennial inspection cycle. Youth in non-secure detention are placed in the agency’s report writing area. 1 Facilities are assessed against Title 24 requirements in place at the time of design or significant remodel. 1122 Kern Taft PD T1 Jail 18-20 Policies, Procedures, and Practices: During the inspection, BSCC staff reviewed applicable policy, procedures, practices and supporting documentation to ensure practice was compliant with Title 15 and policy. Those evaluations included a review of documentation related to jail operations including security logs, shift schedules, local inspection results, incident reports, classification documents and other records which give insight to the facility’s operations2. We noted inmates are supervised by Modified Community Correctional Facility (MCCF) corrections officers, who are co-located in the facility adjacent to the jail. These corrections staff are core trained and complete the supervision and screening functions at the jail. The jail has 11 staff in the Lieutenant to Patrol Officer series and four dispatchers, who supplement the required auditory elements of detention. MCCF staff conduct safety checks on inmates in the facility while they do perimeter checks of the grounds. This allows for sufficient coverage of the jail for booking, screening, classification and safety checks. You secured a written verification via letter from MCCF Administration verifying the corrections staff are core trained, oriented to their duties for the Taft Police Department (TPD) and are versed in the TPD Policies and Procedures. We anticipate this will change significantly when the Governor closes the MCCF Facility in the coming months. As we have discussed, this will require TPD staff be properly trained to complete the responsibilities involved in the supervision of inmates confined to the jail. BSCC reviewed documents to ensure practices matched regulations. We reviewed a sampling of bookings for the inspection cycle and noted consistent compliance with safety checks, screenings and housing requirements. We reviewed 276 safety checks from 2018 and 230 from 2019. The majority were timely with correct population counts; however, 134 of the 506 (28%) safety checks were late. We provided technical assistance to address late checks with involved personnel. All logs reviewed were signed by one of the three sergeants or the lieutenant. Inmates requiring intensive supervision, such as intoxicated, suicidal or mentally ill inmates, or those having medical issues, are not booked at this facility and are transported elsewhere. Female inmates are only booked when a female staff person is immediately available. We identified no areas of non-compliance with policy or procedures. JUVENILE JUSTICE AND DELINQUENCY PREVENTION ACT (JJDPA) COMPLIANCE MONITORING: Pursuant to WIC§ 209, we reviewed applicable policy, procedures, practices and supporting documentation to comply with Title 15 Article 9, Minors in Custody in a Law Enforcement Facility. In accordance with the JJDPA, BSCC monitors law enforcement facilities for compliance with three core requirements of the Act: Deinstitutionalization of Status Offenders, Separation of Juveniles from Incarcerated Adults, and Removal from Adult Jails and Lockups (6-hour secure detention limitation). We reviewed the log to date for this cycle and found 18 youth were held in non-secure detention. The logs and accompanying reports were complete and accurate, with no violations of the JJDPA noted. Non-secure juveniles are supervised in the administrative report writing area. There were no minors held in secure detention. 2 BSCC does not review all of your policies and procedures. We only review those policies related specifically to the applicable regulations included in Title 15, Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities for issues of non-compliance. We do not “approve’ your policies nor do we review them for constitutional or legal issues. 1122 Kern Taft PD T1 Jail 18-20 Regarding the JJDPA, no area of non-compliance was noted. CORRECTIVE ACTION: No areas of non-compliance were noted, and no corrective action is required. This concludes the inspection report. We would like to thank Lieutenant Aranda once again for the hospitality and courtesy they extended during the inspection. He was extremely helpful during this process and very responsive to our recommendations. If I could be of further assistance to you or the agency, please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.
