2018 - 2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF PASO ROBLES POLICE DEPARTMENT, PENAL
CODE SECTION 6031; WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTION 209; JUVENILE
JUSTICE AND DELINQUENCY PREVENTION ACT
Dear Chief Lewis:
On February 26, 2020, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted
the 2018-2020 biennial inspection of the Paso Robles Police Department Temporary Holding Jail
facility.
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, 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 (CCR). 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).
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.
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.
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 County of San Luis Obispo Fire
Department for a comprehensive perspective of your facility.
There was no area of non-compliance noted in the current local inspection.
BSCC INSPECTION
Title 15, CCR Inspection
Our evaluation consisted of reviewing only those policies and procedures related specifically to
the applicable regulations included in Title 15, CCR. We found no items of noncompliance.
Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information.

Title 24, CCR PHYSICAL PLANT
BSCC reviews physical plants against the Title 24 standards at the time of original design or
significant remodel. Based on the applicable standards, there were no issues of non-compliance
noted. The jail was clean and well-maintained.
JUVENILE INSPECTION
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). Secure youth are held in the jail facility away from adult’. No secure youth
were held during this inspection cycle.
We reviewed policy, procedures, practice and supporting documentation related to the
requirements of Title 15 Article 9 – Minors in Custody in a Law Enforcement Facility and WIC
Section 207.1(d). Youth in non-secure detention are held in the juvenile holding area outside the
jail facility. No violation was noted during the inspection.
CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN
N/A.
This concludes our inspection report for the 2018-2020 inspection cycle. We would like to thank
you and your staff for the hospitality and courtesy extended during this inspection. If you have
any questions, or concerns, please contact our office at any time.
Sincerely,
