SBC FILE NUMBER: 120.5
AGENDA SECTION:
REGULAR AGENDA
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:
In March 2017, the San Benito County Civil Grand Jury submitted it's report. A component of the report is the annual inspection of the Juvenile Hall. In the report three findings were made regarding the physical care and maintenance of the facility: "F1. There is no clear understanding on what the status is on the project to fix the basketball court and cement over the dangerous, hole filled grass area", "F2. The shower in the intake area needs to be remodeled for safety reasons", "F4. There is no regular maintenance employee." Additionally, the same issues were mentioned during the most recent inspections of the facility by the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) and the San Benito County Juvenile Justice Commission. While there has been internal progress to address these findings, the purpose of this discussion is to illustrate the County's plan in addressing the identified issues.
