REPORT - POLICE DEPARTMENT ANNUAL MILITARY EQUIPMENT REPORT
BACKGROUND: The passage of Assembly Bill 481 added several new statutes to the Government Code (GC § 7070-7075). These statutes require any state or local law enforcement agency that uses or wants to acquire “military equipment” as defined in the statute to create a written policy detailing the acquisition and use of the equipment which is adopted by ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Police Department that the Council, by resolution: 1) approve the Santa Rosa Police Department Annual Military Equipment Report which complies with the requirements of AB 481; 2) review Ordinance No. ORD-2022-007; and 3) renew Ordinance No. ORD-2022-007, codified as Chapter 2-38 of the Santa Rosa City Code per California Assembly Bill No. 481.
