2016 – 2018 Biennial Inspection; Penal Code 6031; Welfare and Institutions Code 209
Dear Chief Carter:
On June 19, 2018, staff of the California Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted
the biennial inspection of the Escondido City 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.
The inspection consisted of a review of applicable policies and procedures governing the operation of
the facility, staff interviews, a review of documentation to verify that your practices follow your written
procedures, and a walk-through of the physical plant.
Sergeant Mike Graesser was present during the inspection and assisted by answering questions and
clarifying procedural issues. His professionalism and courtesy extended during the inspection was
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’s
physical plant configuration.
Local 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 the reports from the
County Health Officer and the State Fire Marshal for a comprehensive perspective of your facility.
Fire Inspection:
The agency received a fire clearance with no deficiencies.
Health Inspections:
The health inspections were completed with no non-compliance issues.
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.
