December 23, 2020 Mike Matteucci, Chief of Police Burlingame City Police Department 1111 Trousdale Drive Burlingame, CA 94010 2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION 6031 PC and 209 WIC/JJDPA SECTION 6031 Dear Chief Matteucci: As you are aware, The Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) is statutorily required to biennially inspect all local detention facilities for compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations, per Penal Code Section 6031 and for Welfare and Institutions Code (WIC) Section 209. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the issuance of statewide and local shelter-in-place orders, BSCC staff were prohibited from traveling and unable to complete on-site inspections from March 16 through June 30, 2020, the end of the 2018/2020 biennial inspection cycle. BSCC staff conducted virtual inspections via desk audit of all facilities originally scheduled for inspection during this time. Desk audits are comprised of a comprehensive review of all applicable policies and procedures and documentation your agency provided. BSCC staff intend to conduct comprehensive on-site inspections of all local detention facilities as soon as travel restrictions are lifted. The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of this transmittal letter; the Procedures Checklist outlining applicable Title 15 sections; that summarizes the detention facility’s physical plant configuration. Local Inspection 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. There were no noncompliance issues related to the fire inspection or the county health inspection. Inspection Date Fire and Life Safety August 28, 2019 Medical and Mental Health October 16, 2019 Nutritional Health N/A Environmental Health October 16, 2019 Title 15, CCR Inspection 4960 San Mateo Burlingame THJ LTR 18-20 Mike Matteucci, Chief of Police Page 2 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 Inspection BSCC was unable to physically review the physical plants during this inspection cycle. However, we were informed that there were no new or remodel projects concerning the jail facility during the 18/20 inspection cycle. We will review the physical plant during the 2020-2022 inspection cycle. JUVENILE INSPECTION In accordance with the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (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). Youth are not held in the secure portion of the jail, but are held in secure detention rooms in the administrative portion of the station. A JJDPA inspection was not conducted during this desk audit and will be completed separately. CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN No areas of noncompliance were noted, and no corrective action is needed. This concludes our inspection report for the 2018-2020 inspection cycle. We are hopeful that we can return to our normal inspection processes during the 2020-2022 inspection cycle. Although we were unable to provide your department with the services you are accustomed to, I want to assure you that BSCC remains committed to be a resource to your agency regarding your custodial questions or concerns. We look forward to working with you in the future. If you should have any questions, please contact me at (916)621-2852 or email at craigus.thompson@bscc.ca.gov.
