California Attorney General Rob Bonta has formally urged California City leaders to reject CoreCivic's business license and site plan applications for its immigrant detention facility. - CoreCivic opened the facility in August 2025 without proper permits.
- Inspections found inadequate medical care, understaffing, and unsanitary conditions. - The facility's use violates zoning regulations and the existing conditional use permit.
- Bonta argues the applications are incomplete and contain material misrepresentations. The city council is set to consider an administrative appeal of the previously approved licenses.
