Findings 3 findings
F1
The committee does not agree with the complainant concerning lack of sufficient food at meal times. The committee found the meals to be sufficiently filling.
F2
It is difficult to determine what "enough" is, concerning the complaint of an inmate's inability to purchase enough food items from the commissary. The committee does acknowledge, however, that the variety of food items available is somewhat limited.
F3
There is inadequate ventilation in the laundry room. The problem could be more than one thing. One observation by the committee is that the laundry room is either too small for its ventilation system to work properly, or struggling with an inadequate ventilation system, or both. Another reason for the stuffiness of the room might be that the amount of laundry being processed in the laundry facility is greater than the room's size dictates. There is no way to monitor or control the laundry facility's temperature.
Recommendations 3
-
R1The commissary should attempt to add more food items to its inventory, and perhaps allow a larger percentage of purchases to be food items.
-
R2The committee recommends that the Yuba County Jail seek an assessment on the performance of the laundry room's ventilation system from a reputable source and act accordingly. The committee recommends follow-up on the response to this recommendation by next year's Grand Jury.
-
R3The committee recommends that a thermometer be installed in the laundry facility immediately in order to confirm the room's compliance with OSHA requirements. The committee recommends follow-up on the response to this recommendation by next year's Grand Jury.
