2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION - PENAL CODE SECTION 6031; WELFARE AND
INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209; JUVENILE JUSTICE AND DELINQUENCY
PREVENTION ACT
Dear Chief Rohrbacher:
On May 14, 2020, staff of the California Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC)
conducted the 2018 - 2020 biennial inspection of the Sausalito Police Department Temporary
Holding Facility pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031 and Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC)
Section 209. Due to COVID-19 and the statewide travel ban, the jail was inspected virtually via
a desk audit 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.
The inspection consisted of a review of applicable policies and procedures governing the
operation of the facility, and a review of documentation to verify that your practices follow your
written procedures.
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’s physical plant
configuration.
The Physical Plant Checklist and Living Area Space Evaluation from your last onsite inspection
are being attached for your reference and will be updated during your next onsite inspection.
We encourage continuing 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.

In addition to a 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 these reports for a comprehensive perspective of your facility.
Fire Inspection
By regulation, a fire inspection is required every two years. The most recent fire inspection
occurred on 08/12/19 and is current.

Physical Plant
The Sausalito Police Department is a temporary holding facility that is evaluated under 2005
Title 24 standards.1 The facility consists of one holding cell. Confirmation that there have been
no changes will be verified during your next onsite inspection.
Minors in secure detention are held in a holding cell, separated from any adult arrestees. It
should be noted that there were no minors held in secure detention during this inspection
cycle. Minors in non-secure detention are held in the report writing or interview room.
Policy Review
BSCC reviewed the relevant sections of agency policy against regulation to ensure that each
subject required by regulation was addressed in policy.
The published policy is reviewed annually and reprinted when needed. The most recent policy
revision occurred in May of 2020.

Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance Monitoring
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). All logs were reviewed and found complete and comprehensive.
Corrective Action
No areas of noncompliance were noted, and no corrective action required.
