Page 2 of 44 AGENDA REPORT FOR: City Council August 2, 2021 TO: Dave Zabell, City Manager City Council Workshop Meeting: 8/9/21 FROM: Ken Roske, Police Chief Police Department SUBJECT: Update on Police Reform Legislation - Impacts on Pasco Police & Fire Departments I. REFERENCE(S): Police Reform Legislation Presentation II. ACTION REQUESTED OF COUNCIL / STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Discussion only III. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF: The 2021 State Legislature adopted a series of bills HB 1054, HB 1310, SB 5476, HB 5051 with some of them taking effect in July of this year. These bills significantly impact police operations and requiring changes in policies and procedures, additional training, staffing requirements, at certain incidents, law enforcement response and obligations to certain incidences, which will in turn require changes to resources allocated to the Pasco Police Department (Pasco PD). V. DISCUSSION: As the new bills begin to take effect, the Pasco PD has, and will need to continue to, adjust and assess how it responds to specific calls for service and what an altered response may look like to those non-criminal calls for service. The increased need for follow-up investigations will likely translate into additional expenses on criminal investigations along with a reduced success rate in criminal case closures. Equally important, the obligations and changes in policy Page 3 of 44 required of the mandates within these bills are significant enough that the public will notice. The presentation is intended to inform the Council and public about the aforementioned mandates and the significant changes in police response, shifted responsibilities to fire/pare-medic staff, approach to person(s) at the center of an incident, and the impact of those changes on public expectations.
