Receive the Police Department’s Annual Military Equipment Report. 2. Hold a public hearing to receive public comment. 3. Introduce an ordinance renewing the Police Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy, in accordance with California Assembly Bill 481. Executive Summary Today’s police departments must use a wide range of equipment to protect the public and provide law enforcement in the communities they serve. Much of this equipment is also used by the military. Assembly Bill 481, which became law in 2021 as California Government Code Sections 7070- 7075, requires law enforcement agencies to obtain approval from their governing bodies for the use of military equipment before the agencies can fund, acquire, or use military equipment, as defined in the law. Under the terms of the law, the City Council can approve the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment by the Carlsbad Police Department by renewing the annual military equipment use policy through an ordinance introduced and adopted at regular meetings. The current military equipment use policy was originally approved by City Council through Ordinance No. CS-421 on April 19, 2022, and reauthorized through Ordinance No. CS-447 on April 18, 2023. The policy is provided as Attachment A to Exhibit 1. The law requires the City Council to review the ordinance each year along with an annual military equipment report prepared by the Police Department. The City Council then determines whether to renew its authorization of the military equipment use policy by considering certain factors provided under the law. April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 1 of 88 Staff recommend the City Council receive the Police Department’s 2023 Military Equipment Report, hold a public hearing to receive public comment and introduce an ordinance renewing Carlsbad Police Department Policy 708 -Military Equipment Use Policy. Explanation and Analysis The complete list of items Government Code Section 7070 defines as military equipment is attached as Exhibit 3. It includes items not used by the Carlsbad Police Department. The law defines a military equipment use policy as a publicly released, written document that addresses, at a minimum, all of the following: 1.A description of each type of military equipment, the quantity sought, its capabilities, expected lifespan and product descriptions from the manufacturer of the military equipment. 2.The purposes and authorized uses for which the law enforcement agency or the state agency proposes to use each type of military equipment. 3.The fiscal impact of each type of military equipment, including the initial costs of obtaining the equipment and estimated annual costs of maintaining the equipment. 4.The legal and procedural rules that govern each authorized use. 5.The training, including any course required by the Commission on Peace 6.Officer standards and training that must be completed before any officer, agent or employee of the law enforcement agency is allowed to use each specific type of military equipment to ensure the full protection of the public's welfare, safety, civil rights and civil liberties and full adherence to the military equipment use policy. 7.The mechanisms to ensure compliance with the military equipment use policy, including which independent persons or entities have oversight authority, and, if applicable, what legally enforceable sanctions are put in place for violations of the policy. 8.For a law enforcement agency, the procedures by which members of the public may register complaints or concerns or submit questions about the use of each specific type of military equipment, and how the law enforcement agency will ensure that each complaint, concern or question receives a response in a timely manner. April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 2 of 88 Department’s military equipment The Police Department identified 53 types of equipment in its possession that meet the definition of military equipment provided in California Government Code Section 7070. More specific descriptions of these items and information on their cost, use and the training required to use them can be found in the Military Equipment Inventory, which is attached as Appendix A to the Military Equipment Use Policy.

The remaining 46 items are exclusively assigned to the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team and are only deployed by SWAT officers in serious public safety incidents. April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 4 of 88 v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v Military equipment acquisitions The Police Department will replace, as needed, any existing approved military equipment with equipment of the same make and model, or if unavailable, with substantially similar equipment which will be subject to the same requirements as the replaced equipment. In addition, the Police Department may acquire additional equipment and munitions of the types (or substantially similar types) contained in Appendix A of the Military Equipment Use Policy. The quantity for each type of equipment and munition in Appendix A was never intended as a cap on the number that may be acquired. To clarify this point, the Police Department amended its Military Equipment Use Policy by adding the following language to Section 708.5.1 Replacement of Approved Equipment: [Existing language:] The police department will replace, as needed, any existing approved military equipment with equipment of the same make and model, or if unavailable, with substantially similar equipment which will be subject to the same requirements as the replaced equipment. [Language added:] The police department may acquire additional equipment and munitions of the types (or substantially similar types) contained in Appendix A. The quantity for each type of equipment and munition in Appendix A is not intended as a cap on the number that may be acquired. In 2023, the Police Department submitted a proposal to the San Diego Urban Areas Security Initiative federal grant program to purchase a new Bearcat armored rescue vehicle (previously disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report). The Urban Areas Security Initiative Board approved the funding for the acquisition of a Lenco Bearcat armored rescue vehicle and classified the approval as Priority 3. This classification means the funding for this purchase would be released only if enough higher-priority projects were abandoned. Should the grant award be released for this equipment, the Police Department would not take receipt of the equipment until several years later. The Police Department currently maintains one Lenco Bearcat armored rescue vehicle within its inventory. The current Bearcat was originally purchased in 2011 and is approaching the end of its normal lifecycle. To bolster de-escalation practices, the Police Department intends to outfit more field personnel with highly accurate less-lethal 40mm tactical single launchers, which can be used to launch a less-lethal projectile or a gas canister, replacing bean bag shotguns. The Police Department is seeking to add 16 40mm single launchers to its current inventory of eight. Members of the Police Department’s SWAT team will be exchanging their current issued rifles, the Sig MCX .300, for an AR-15 platform. The exchange of these rifles will reduce ammunition costs by switching to a caliber currently used by the rest of the department. This change will remove 24 Sig MCX rifles from the inventory, replacing them with 24 AR-15s (the actual make and model have yet to be determined). The Police Department is seeking the purchase of four new unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These new UAVs are upgraded models, intended to replace current inventories that have become obsolete. The total number of UAVs in the Carlsbad inventory would not exceed 12, as several current UAVs would be retired. One of the sought-after UAVs is capable of being tethered, a technique used to provide continuous power in a fixed location for long durations, April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 5 of 88 designed to be deployed at a special event or other static scene. This is a capability not provided by the current inventory. The Police Department has not obtained any equipment from the federal military surplus program, known as the 1033 Program, and does not possess any tactical equipment obtained from the military. Required findings To renew the policy, the City Council must determine, based on the 2023 Military Equipment Report (Exhibit 2), whether each type of military equipment identified in the report has complied with the following standards: 1. The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. 2. The military equipment use policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights and civil liberties. 3. The equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. 4. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at that time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance. If the City Council determines that any of the military equipment identified in the 2023 Annual Military Equipment Report has not complied with the standards for approval, the City Council may decline to renew authorization for that type of military equipment or require modification to the military equipment use policy in a manner that will resolve the non-compliance. Need for this equipment The military equipment identified in Carlsbad Police Department Policy 708 is necessary because there are no reasonable alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and community safety. The demands created by emergency situations and legitimate law enforcement investigations must be constantly balanced with the protection of privacy expected by every member of the public. • Some of the military equipment items provide valuable real-time information to police personnel, enabling them to develop appropriate plans before entering potentially dangerous situations. The technology items, such as the throw robot and aerial drone, allow officers to interact with individuals from a safe distance, keeping officers out of harm’s way and significantly reducing the potential for violent encounters. • The less-lethal equipment on the list provides critical alternatives to lethal force in violent interactions with people who are often armed and represent a significant danger to the public, while lethal weapons, such as long-range rifles, provide the essential de- escalation component of time and distance while still enabling officers to immediately respond with accurate and potentially lifesaving force. April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 6 of 88 • Chemical agents provide the most effective means of encouraging a violent, resistive person to leave a position of strength. When trying to de-escalate an incident, one of the most dangerous actions officers can take is to move into the environment occupied by the subject, placing officers in danger and increasing the potential for a violent encounter. When all other attempts to gaining voluntary compliance have failed, chemical agents can encourage subjects to move to a location of disadvantage and increase the potential for safely taking them into custody. • Diversionary devices such as flash-bang grenades serve as distractions and attention- getting tools to encourage voluntary compliance. Items such as breaching tools provide officers with the ability to break into secured locations to provide potentially lifesaving aid. • The vehicles also provide various essential support. For example, the command post and ambulance allow police officers to transport personnel and equipment to and from incidents or provide a remote working location, while the Bearcat is essential for responding to such dangerous scenarios as an active-shooter incident. The Bearcat is also used as a lifesaving or defensive tool. Before being allowed to use a piece of military equipment, a Carlsbad Police officer receives significant training in the safe use, handling and deployment of the item, and all actions by police personnel must comply with constitutional protections regarding search and seizure, state law and department policy. Many of the items have specific policies that relate to their deployment, and their use must comply with state and federal law. Police Department Policy 708 and state law The department’s proposed military equipment use policy meets all the requirements of AB 481, including: • The proposed policy was published on the Police Department’s website on March 8, 2024, at least 30 days prior to this public hearing concerning the military equipment at issue, meeting the requirements of Government Code Section 7071. • The Military Equipment Inventory (Appendix A to the Military Equipment Use Policy) describes each type of military equipment, their quantities, capabilities and expected lifespan, their purposes and authorized uses, acquisition and annual maintenance costs, the rules governing each authorized use, and the training required to use each piece of military equipment. • It provides a mechanism to ensure compliance with the policy. • Questions and complaints regarding the use of military equipment will be handled in accordance with Police Department Policy 1020, which means that questions and complaints may be submitted by emailing police@carlsbadca.gov or by submitting a personnel complaint form. Instructions and copies of the complaint form are available by clicking on the link in the Military Equipment Use Policy, on the Police Department’s website, and in person at the Police Department. Conclusion The proposed military equipment use policy is intended to safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties by clearly defining the military equipment usage guidelines and standards applicable to the Carlsbad Police Department. The department’s existing military April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 7 of 88 equipment and the future purchase of military equipment described in Appendix A to the Military Equipment Use Policy are reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. Public notification The proposed Military Equipment Use Policy was posted on the Police Department’s website on March 8, 2024, at least 30 days prior to the first public hearing, and made available on the Police Department’s website. The 2023 Military Equipment Report was posted on the Police Department’s Internet website on March 13, 2024. As required under Government Code Section 7072, the Police Department hosted a well- publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting on March 21, 2024, centrally located at the Carlsbad Safety Training Center, where the public was invited to discuss and ask questions about this annual Military Equipment Report and the Police Department’s funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment. Department personnel were available to answer questions, provide demonstrations, and educate the community members on the equipment contained within the department’s military equipment inventory. Similar public forum meetings have been carried out throughout the year at events such as the City’s Citizens’ Academy and Public Safety Open House. In addition to the well-publicized community event on March 21, 2024, police personnel gave a presentation to the Community-Police Engagement Commission on the Police Department’s annual review of military equipment, the 2023 military equipment use report and the proposed amendments. This presentation took place at the Community-Police Engagement Commission Special Meeting on March 25, 2024. Department personnel were available for questions from the commission as well as from community members during this open meeting. Fiscal Analysis There will be personnel costs incurred to prepare the annual review, prepare the annual report and set up community meetings each year. The fiscal impact of the personnel costs will be minimal and will be absorbed by the Police Department’s operating budget. Next Steps If the ordinance is approved, the City Clerk will prepare the ordinance for adoption at the next regular City Council meeting. Once adopted, the City Clerk will publish the ordinance or a summary of the ordinance in a newspaper of general circulation within 15 days. The ordinance will be effective 30 days after its adoption. If the policy is renewed, the Carlsbad Police Department will be able to continue using and be able to acquire any additional military equipment listed in Appendix A of the Military Equipment Use Policy. Acquisitions will continue to follow the city’s policies and procedures for budgeting and procurement. In accordance with state law and the current Military Equipment Use Policy, the Police Department will prepare and submit the next annual military equipment report to the City Council and make the report publicly available on the department’s website. The ordinance adopting the military equipment use policy will continue to be presented to the City Council with the military equipment report at least annually so that the City Council can vote on whether to renew the ordinance, in keeping with Government Code Section 7071 (e). April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 8 of 88 Environmental Evaluation This action does not require environmental review because it does not constitute a project within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act under California Public Resources Code Section 21065 in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Patrol Rifle Suppressor Description HX-QD 556K Suppressor Quantity 120 Capability Lowers sound to sub-140 dB Life Span 15+ years Manufacturer’s description A short and extremely durable suppressor, the HX-QD 556k – updated with our newly designed flash cap – is built with patented and proven Flow-Through® technology, delivers sub-140 dB and zero flash performance, is full-auto rated, easily passes the USSOCOM Reliability Stress Test, and has no minimum barrel restrictions – it’s designed and built for extreme use. Purpose/Authorized Usage A device that greatly reduces sound, recoil, and muzzle rise. Suppressors do not completely remove the need for hearing protection, but they can help a great deal. When you fire a gun, a large volume of hot, high-pressure gas exits the muzzle along with the bullet. This gas shooting down the gun barrel and exiting makes a lot of noise (“muzzle blast”). A suppressor contains some of those gasses for a fraction of a second and allows them to expand and cool more gradually by circulating them around internal baffles. This helps to lower the decibel level. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has determined that a decibel (dB) level greater than 140 can cause permanent hearing loss. suppressors can lower the dB level below the detrimental 140 dB level. These devices are attached to issued Patrol Rifles. Legal / Procedural Rules Governing Use Because these devices are attached to rifles, all applicable State, Federal and Local laws governing police use of force apply.

April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 81 of 88 Exhibit 2 CARLSBAD POLICE DEPARTMENT 2023 ANNUAL MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT The acquisition and use of military equipment by the City of Carlsbad has a direct impact on the public’s safety and welfare. The community has a right to know about any funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment by the Carlsbad Police Department (CPD), as well as a right to participate in the local government’s decision to fund, acquire or use such equipment. California law and the CPD’s military equipment use policy (Policy Section 708) require the CPD to publish an annual military equipment report. California Government Code Section 7072 requires this annual report to include the following information for the immediately preceding calendar year for each type of military equipment: 1. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use. 2. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment. 3. The results of any internal audits or information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response. 4. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report. 5. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment. 6. If the CPD intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment. 1. Summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use. The CPD primarily utilizes its military equipment through the CPD Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team. The SWAT Team is tasked with several responsibilities within the CPD. Those responsibilities include: • Responding to callouts for critical incidents • Serving high-risk search warrants, arrest warrants and other high-risk searches (e.g., parole/probation searches) • VIP security/protection details • Mobile Field Force/crowd control • Quick Reaction Force for special events (Street Faire, Marathon, Carlsbad 5000, etc.) • Security for sensitive evidence transportation In addition to handling those tasks, the SWAT Team also serves as a training cadre for tactical concepts and strategic planning for the entire police department. They provide instruction for both officers and citizens in areas like active shooter response (“Run, Hide, Fight”), close-quarter clearings and search and rescue operations, among others. Members of the SWAT Team also perform site surveys to help community partners preemptively develop safe plans for potential critical incidents. Many of the items April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 82 of 88 contained within the military equipment inventory are used to ensure the safest standards are employed while carrying out these tasks. The following section provides a summary of how each type of military equipment was used by CPD during 2023 and the purpose of its use: High-Risk Warrant Services (search and arrest) Number of incidents: Nine (Incident Numbers: 23001759; 230059436; 230062360; 230068059; 230073357; 230084388; 230084502; 230091187; and 230093040) Type of Military Equipment Utilized: Armored rescue vehicle, unmanned aerial systems, mobile command center, equipment ambulance and the Throwbot were utilized.

During calendar year 2023, there were no internally generated complaints for policy violations related to the use of military equipment and no external complaints or concerns were received related to the use April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 84 of 88 of military equipment by CPD. For all use-of-force reviews and internal affairs investigations, officers were found to be operating the equipment in a manner that met or exceeded department standards. In summary, there were no internal or external complaints or concerns related to military equipment during calendar year 2023. 3. Results of any internal audits or information about violations of the military use policy, including any actions taken in response. All incidents involving the use of force are reviewed by assigned supervisors and Watch Commanders, regardless of the equipment used. In addition, our Professional Standards Unit is tasked with conducting thorough investigations of any allegations of misconduct, including the application of military equipment that falls outside of the guidelines set by department policy and applicable law. These reviews and internal affairs audits provide the department with opportunities to reflect on their actions, policies, procedures, legislation and best practices within the law enforcement profession. Internal audits may also highlight opportunities for future growth while aiding the constant evaluation of practices related to training and daily operations. For all 2023 use-of-force reviews and internal affairs investigations, no policy violations related to the use of military equipment were discovered and officers were found to be operating the equipment in a manner that met or exceeded department standards. 4. Total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report. The total annual cost for the military equipment can be found in the 2023 Carlsbad Police Department Military Equipment Inventory, which is Appendix A to the 2023 Military Equipment Policy Section 708 and incorporated herein by reference. The 2023 Military Equipment Inventory covers the initial cost, recurring and maintenance costs and the original funding source for each item. The use of military equipment primarily falls under the SWAT Team. The SWAT Team’s training and personnel budget for FY 2023-24 is as follows: SWAT expense category Amount budgeted Overtime (Training, operational missions) $175,000 Software maintenance $950 Dues and subscriptions $750 Shooting range supplies $8,000 Misc. supplies (Diversionary devices, smoke, uniform accessories) $11,000 Training/training-related travel $6,500 Misc. meals/miles $2,500 In addition to the above SWAT personnel budget, the CPD SWAT Team utilized a federal grant fund award from the San Diego Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) FY21 to participate in a week-long close quarters combat course designed specifically for SWAT personnel. The grant award value was $40,000. April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 85 of 88 5. Quantity possessed for each type of military equipment. The total numbers for each piece of military equipment in CPD’s possession can be found in the in Carlsbad Police Department Military Equipment Inventory which is Appendix A to the 2023 Military Equipment Policy Section 708 and incorporated herein by reference. 6. If CPD intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment. Along with seeking authorization to use preexisting equipment, CPD will seek authorization to acquire, fund and use replacement equipment and supplies that meet the definition of military equipment. At this time, forecasted acquisitions of military equipment for the CPD in 2024 include: 1. Items needed to maintain the current inventory of expendable items approved through the military equipment policy. 2. Items that need to be repaired or replenished after being used in either the field or training environments. All items needing to be repaired or replenished are included in the 2024 Military Equipment Policy Section 708 and Military Equipment Inventory which is being submitted to the City Council for approval concurrently with this annual report. The department will replace, as needed, any existing approved military equipment with either the same make and model, or if unavailable, with substantially similar equipment that will be subject to the same requirements as the replaced equipment. Replacements will be accounted for in each annual report. The CPD’s military equipment inventory and all costs associated with the use of this equipment is believed to be consistent with the 2024 Military Equipment Policy Section 708 and Military Equipment Inventory and department budget previously approved by the City Council. It should be noted, these operating costs are good faith estimates that are subject to change made by vendors and/or manufacturers based on variables related to availability, shipping and general market increases. 3. The CPD is seeking the purchase of four new Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). These new UAVs are upgraded models, intended to replace current inventories that have become obsolete. The total number of UAVs in the Carlsbad inventory would not exceed 12, as several current UAVs would be retired. One of the sought-after UAVs is capable of being tethered, a technique used to provide continuous power in a fixed location (designed to be deployed at a special event or other static scene) for long durations. This is a capability not possessed by the current inventory. 4. To bolster de-escalation practices, the CPD intends to outfit more field personnel with highly accurate less-lethal 40mm Tactical Single Launchers, replacing less-lethal bean bag shotguns. The CPD is seeking to add 16 40mm single launchers to the current inventory of eight. 5. The CPD SWAT Team will be exchanging their current issued rifles (Sig MCX .300) for an AR- 15 platform. The exchange of these rifles will reduce ammunition costs by switching to a caliber currently used by the rest of the department. This change will remove 24 Sig MCX rifles from the inventory, replacing them with 24 AR-15s (actual make and model to be determined). April 9, 2024 Item #5 Page 86 of 88 6. CPD submitted a proposal to the San Diego Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) federal grant program in 2023 to purchase a new Bearcat armored rescue vehicle (previously disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report). The UASI Board approved the funding for the acquisition of a Lenco Bearcat Armored Rescue Vehicle and classified the approval as Priority 3. The Priority 3 classification means the release of funds for this project would only be realized if enough higher-priority projects were abandoned. Should the grant awards be released for this equipment, the CPD would not take receipt of the equipment until several years later. The CPD currently maintains one Lenco Bearcat Armored Rescue Vehicle within its inventory. The current Bearcat was originally purchased in 2011 and is approaching the end of its normal lifecycle. 7. If an unforeseen need for new types of military equipment arises, CPD will adhere to the procedures required by California law and our Military Equipment policy, including a public hearing and City Council approval before acquisition. For future acquisitions of additional equipment currently held in the department’s inventory, the CPD recommends amending the current military equipment policy (Policy Section 708) to add the following section: 708.5.1 – REPLACEMENT OF APPROVED EQUIPMENT The Police Department may acquire additional equipment and munitions of the types (or substantially similar types) contained in Appendix A. The quantity for each type of equipment and munition in Appendix A is not intended as a cap on the number that may be acquired. Public Hearing The CPD strongly considers the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights and civil liberties. In a continued effort for greater transparency, the department places high regard on meaningful public input related to the use of military equipment in the community. Department policy requires the agency to hold at least one well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting where community members may discuss and ask questions regarding the annual military equipment report. Meetings must be held within thirty days of submitting and publicly releasing this annual report. The CPD will be meeting with the public at the City of Carlsbad Safety Training Center on March 21, 2024, at 1700 hours to discuss this report. The meeting is open to everyone and will provide an opportunity for all to read the report, ask questions of SWAT personnel, view the equipment and provide feedback regarding the use of military equipment. Conclusion The CPD places great value on input from the community. The CPD, through the SWAT Team, frequently hosts public events encouraging interaction between members of the community and the officers. These events are designed to promote education and community engagement while fostering positive relationships with the citizens of Carlsbad. In accordance with The Military Equipment Policy Section 708, members of the public can submit feedback, questions or complaints regarding the use of military equipment by emailing police@carlsbadca.gov or by submitting a personnel complaint form. In addition, they can directly contact the department’s military equipment representative, Lieutenant Ryan Opeka via email at ryan.opeka@carlsbadca.gov.
