California Olympic and Paralympic Public Safety Command: agreements with state and local agencies.

Existing law requires the Office of Emergency Services to establish the California Olympic and Paralympic Public Safety Command to facilitate the planning, resourcing, management, and delivery of safety and security at the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles. Existing law repeals provisions relating to the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games on January 1, 2029. Existing law requires the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to adopt rules establishing minimum standards relating to physical, mental, and moral fitness that govern the recruitment of certain peace officers. Existing law requires the commission to establish a certification program for certain peace officers, as provided. This bill would require the Office of Emergency Services to negotiate and enter into agreements to facilitate training, mutual cooperation, and sharing of information and resources related to the temporary deployment, as defined, of law enforcement personnel with other state and local agencies within and outside of the State of California for the purposes of ensuring public safety for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The bill would prohibit out-of-state law enforcement personnel, as defined, to be deployed pursuant to these provisions unless specified conditions are met, including issuance of a temporary authorization by the commission, for the duration of the deployment, as provided, and a written memorandum of understanding between the command and the employing California law enforcement agency governing conditions the command deems necessary to ensure compliance with these provisions. The bill would require out-of-state personnel deployed pursuant to these provisions to, among other things, be limited to general law enforcement duties, as defined, unless the person has obtained any additional authorization by the commission for the performance of investigative functions. The bill would require the command, in coordination with appropriate agencies, to submit a report to the Assembly and Senate Public Safety Committees on the deployment out-of-state personnel, as provided. This bill would require the commission to establish a streamlined training program for out-of-state law enforcement personnel that, among other things, includes training as determined by the commission to be necessary for the unique conditions of the use of out-of-state law enforcement personnel to assist local law enforcement agencies with law enforcement operations during the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The bill would repeal the requirement to establish a streamlined training program on January 1, 2029. This bill would, until January 1, 2029, make a regularly employed law enforcement officer from outside the state of California a peace officer in this state for the purposes of assisting local law enforcement for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games if that officer meets specified conditions, including, among other things, that the officer has a minimum of two years of continuous full-time, out-of-state experience performing general law enforcement duties, is currently in good standing with their employing agency, and has completed the streamlined training program established by the commission.
