BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
On September 9, 2019, the City Council approved an additional appropriation of
$97,500 to partially fund one School Resource Officer (SRO), with costs shared among
the four Peninsula cities. The cost contribution was decided on a blended rate formula
based on student enrollment and student population, not to exceed $150,000 in
aggregate for one SRO.
1
On October 15, 2019, the City Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) to partially fund a SRO along with the other three Peninsula cities. The MOU
(Attachment B) was an agreement that formalized the terms and not-to-exceed funding
amounts, with a term of one year from the effective date of August 26, 2019. Each of
the four cities reviewed and approved the MOU.
The City, in participation with the other three Peninsula cities and the Palos Verdes
Peninsula Regional Law Enforcement Committee (RLEC), would like to extend the
MOU for an additional three-years. Since the originally MOU was initially drafted by the
Rolling Hills City Attorney, the four Peninsula City Managers agreed to have the Rolling
Hills City Attorney prepare the proposed MOU. As of the transmittal of this staff report,
the proposed MOU has not been completed or vetted by the other city managers and
their respective city attorneys. Staff anticipates transmitting the proposed MOU to the
City Council as late correspondence by Monday, June 15. If the MOU is not available by
that date, this item will be pulled off the June 16 agenda and added to the July 7, 2020
City Council agenda. Lastly, upon mutual consent, the proposed MOU will be sent to the
Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District (District) to be reviewed and approved
by its Board of Education.
School Resource Officer Updates
The District employs two SROs who have designated responsibilities, tasks, and roles,
including traffic safety, perimeter patrol, event security, student relations, and
supplemental assistance with difficult or confrontational situations involving students.
Their activities and any updates have been reported to the RLEC. Monthly invoices of
the SRO will also be sent to the four cities, as dictated by the terms of the MOU. In
addition, the District has shared with the RLEC the continued positive impact and
influence of the SROs.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
In light of the COVID-19 health crisis, the District temporarily closed the schools on
March 13, 2020. When the schools closed, the District decided to utilize both SROs
half-time to continue patrolling the sites, respond to calls about vandalism and group
gatherings, and secure the campus and perimeters. The District will not invoice the
Peninsula cities for the SROs after March 13. The next invoice will occur when the
schools open again, which is still being discussed.
ALTERNATIVES:
In addition to the Staff recommendation, the following alternative action is available for
the City Council’s consideration:
1. Do not approve the MOU extension.
2. Direct Staff and/or the City Attorney to modify or make changes to the MOU.
