2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION; LOS ANGELES COUNTY'S NORTH PATROL DIVISION –
TYPE I JAILS; PENAL CODE SECTION 6031
Dear Sheriff Villanueva:
On February 14, 2022, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) provided
pre-inspection briefings to the Los Angeles County Compliance Unit and leadership of the North
Patrol Stations outlining the proposes, process and necessary documentation needed for the
biennial inspection. Staff gave the North Patrol Stations and Compliance Unit members a
complete preview of the upcoming visit and provided a schedule of the inspections that took
place in April 2022. BSCC staff provided applicable checklists and answered any questions.
BSCC conducted the 2020-2022 biennial inspection of the following Los Angeles County North
Patrol Stations’, Type 1, Jails:
Lost Hills Station West Hollywood Station
Palmdale Station Lancaster Station
These inspections were performed pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, for compliance with
the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California
Code of Regulations.
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of:
This transmittal letter
The Type 1 JailFacilities Procedures checklist outlining Title 15 requirements for each of
the above facilities
A Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for design for each of the
above facilities

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.
We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections.
This file should be the first point of reference when preparing for all future inspections.
Health Inspections
BSCC Staff have reviewed the most recent health inspection reports for all the above listed
facilities. There were some delays by local health inspectors due to the local COVID-19
restrictions.
Lancaster, Lost Hills, Palmdale, and West Hollywood Stations all had non-compliant
items with Title 15, Section 1280 (Facility Sanitation, Safety, and Maintenance).
The Corrective Action Plans, developed by staff at the facility, described how the non-
compliance issues will be remedied. The County Health Inspector will verify that the above
issues have been addressed when they perform their next inspection in 2022-2023.
Fire and Life Safety Inspections, CCR 15, 1032(c):
BSCC Staff was able to review current fire and life safety inspection for all the above facilities.
BSCC INSPECTIONS
Title 15 Inspection
Prior to the inspection of each of the listed facilities, we reviewed the Los Angeles Sheriff's
Department Station Jail Manual, applicable sections of the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department
Custody Division Manual, and station specific policies. Our audit consisted of a review of only
those policies and procedures related specifically to the applicable regulations included in Title
15, Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities.1 Although there were no issues of non-
compliance identified in our review of the policy and procedures manuals, our review of pertinent
documentation in each of the above facilities found the following noncompliance issues:
Title 15, Section 1027.5, Safety Checks:
1 BSCC does not review all of your policies and procedures. We do not “approve” your policies and procedures,
nor do we review them for constitutional or legal issues. We recommend agencies seek review through their legal
advisor, risk manager and other persons deemed appropriate.

Safety checks shall be conducted at least hourly through direct visual observation of all
inmates. There shall be no more than a 60-minute lapse between safety checks. There
is a written plan that includes the documentation of routine safety checks.
In the Lost Hills and Lancaster Station Jails, BSCC Staff reviewed safety checks. Due to
continual problems with the automated scanners used by the agency, many of the checks
could not be verified.
Title 15, Section 1029, Policy and Procedures Manual:
Facility administrator(s) shall develop and publish a manual of policy and procedures for
the facility. The policy and procedures manual shall address all applicable Title 15 and
Title 24 regulations and shall be comprehensively reviewed and updated at least every
two years. Such a manual shall be made available to all employees.
This applies to all Los Angeles County Station Jails. The manual was last documented
as being reviewed or updated in March 2018. This is a system wide non-compliance
item.
Title 15, Section 1056, Use of Sobering Cell:
In no case shall an inmate remain in sobering cell over six hours without an evaluation by
a medical staff person or an evaluation by custody staff, pursuant to written medical
procedures in accordance with section 1213 of these regulations, to determine whether
the prisoner has an urgent medical problem. Additionally, intermittent direct visual
observation of inmates held in the sobering cell shall be conducted no less than every
half hour. Such observation shall be documented.
In the Lancaster Station Jails, BSCC Staff reviewed random sobering cell checks sheets.
In multiple cases, when inmates were held in the sobering cell, BSCC staff found checks
were late or not all documented.
Please refer to each facility's Type 1 Facilities Procedures checklist for detailed information.
Title 24 Inspection
There were no issues of Title 24 non-compliance identified in the above listed facilities.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance Monitoring
There were no issues of JJDPA non-compliance identified in the above listed facilities.
Technical Assistance
At the conclusion of each inspection, BSCC staff offered an out brief of findings to facility
management. This included an immediate review of the inspection and any non-compliance
issues. It also included potential courses of action in correcting those non-compliance issues.
Finally, the out brief provided managers with technical assistance in identifying hazards that may
exist in the facility.

The Santa Clarita Valley Station, recently opened in 2021 and was inspected for compliance
with Title 24. The facility was visited by BSCC Staff multiple times throughout the construction
process. Due to its recent opening, the station was not included in this report but will be
inspected for Title 15 standards during the 2023-2024 cycle.
At the Lancaster Station, issues were identified in the detention of minors. There was one minor
held in "secure" detention, but the facility uses a non-fixed bench to cuff minors. This is not
secure detention since the bench is not affixed to the floor or wall. I picked up the bench and
demonstrated that it could easily be carried out in an emergency. BSCC Staff offered training
materials to avoid recurrence of these issues.
LASD Station Staff all seem to continue to have some level of problems with the automated cell
check scanners and software. There appears to be problems with the Wi-Fi connections,
problems with the handheld scanners, or lack knowledge on how to retrieve data from the
software system. BSCC staff recommends reviewing the use of scanners in the patrol station
jails and consider repairs or alternatives to the current system.
Corrective Action Plans
Submit your corrective actions plans to the BSCC for inclusion with this report.

This concludes our inspection report for the 2020-2022 inspection cycle. We would like to thank
all staff for the outstanding professionalism, hospitality and courtesy extended during the
inspection. The LASD Compliance Unit staff and all the patrol station staff were extremely
professional and helpful throughout this process. If you should have any questions, please
