Bill > HF3768

This bill clarifies the responsibilities of juvenile and adult community-based residential correctional facilities licensed by the Department of Corrections (DOC) in Minnesota. It establishes new sections outlining licensing, inspection, and enforcement procedures for these facilities, which are defined as "local correctional facilities." Key provisions include requiring biennial inspections, public posting of inspection reports, and clear processes for issuing correction orders, conditional licenses, or license revocations when facilities fail to meet minimum standards. The bill also details requirements for reporting deaths, critical incidents, and emergencies, and establishes death review teams for juvenile facilities. Additionally, it creates a security audit group for state correctional facilities to review and improve security practices. The bill amends existing laws to align with these new provisions and repeals several outdated sections related to facility licensing and oversight.
