Announcing the Community and Local Law Enforcement Task Force

Published: January 10, 2014

Information about the Community and Local Law Enforcement Task Force is now available online. The Task Force was created by the Board of Supervisors as one of the community healing measures following the tragic death of Andy Lopez.

The Task force is charged with:

  1. Reviewing options for a model for an independent citizen review body.
  2. Reviewing and recommending options for community policing to be considered with the FY 14/15 budget process.
  3. Reviewing and recommending whether the Office of Coroner should be separately elected from the Office of Sheriff.
  4. Bringing to the Board of Supervisors any additional feedback from the community on these issues that merits County attention by the end of 2014 and discuss staff generated efforts on these issues.

These duties are described more completely in the Community and Local Law Enforcement Charter approved by the Board of Supervisors December 10, 2013. On line materials include meeting agendas and other meeting and reference materials.
