BACKGROUND:
In 2018, SBCERA had a building security assessment conducted for the purposes of improving security for the employees, tenants and visitors to 348 West Hospitality Lane. The assessment, conducted by Joint Regional Intelligence Center (JRIC), included a series of options for consideration, some of which have already been completed. In addition to the options recommended by JRIC, there are several additional changes staff is recommending to unify SBCERA and the building controls.
