DATE: November 5, 2025

SUBJECT: Select and Approve Downtown Light Pole Banners Design

SUMMARY:

The purpose of this staff report is for City Council to select and approve downtown light pole banner design.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Select a design; and

2. Approve design for production and installation be placed on downtown light pole banners; and

There is no Fiscal Impact on the General Fund. The FY 25-26 Budget includes $10,000 from the Prop C Funds, Account #245-50-550-53100-15622 for the replacement of the existing light pole banners around the Downtown area.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Baldwin Park proposes the installation of light pole banners in the Downtown area to enhance visual appeal and celebrate the community. The banners are designed to reflect the City’s character and heritage, encouraging residents and visitors to welcome, explore, enjoy, discover, and celebrate all that Downtown has to offer.

This project supports ongoing Downtown revitalization efforts, including streetscape improvements, pedestrian- friendly enhancements, and public art installations. City Council approval is requested prior to fabrication and installation.

DISCUSSION:

None

ALTERNATIVES:

None

CEQA REVIEW:

These actions are exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 2100, et seq., “CEQA”) and CEQA regulations (14 California Code of Regulations §§ 15000, et seq.)

STAFF REPORT

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Manuel Carrillo Jr, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Christian L. Bettenhausen, City Attorney
DATE: November 5, 2025

SUBJECT: Comparison of Baldwin Park Sanctuary Policy with Richmond Sanctuary Ordinance and Other Regional
Ordinances

SUMMARY:

Baldwin Park currently reaffirms compliance with the California Values Act (SB 54) through Resolution No. 2025-003, which prohibits the use of City resources for civil immigration enforcement and restricts the collection or disclosure of “sensitive information” by City departments. Other cities and counties, such as Richmond, Los Angeles, Long Beach, San Francisco, San Mateo County, and Oakland, have adopted additional measures that provide examples Baldwin Park may wish to consider.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council provide direction to staff regarding whether to pursue codification of the existing resolution into an ordinance and whether to incorporate additional provisions modeled on Richmond and other California jurisdictions.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Adopting additional provisions, such as codifying the existing resolution into ordinance form, limiting license plate reader data sharing, or requiring judicial warrants for facility access, is not expected to create significant direct costs for the City. Some minimal expenses may occur if the Council directs staff training, annual reporting, or contractor screening measures. Any such costs would be evaluated and incorporated into the City’s regular budget process to ensure that they are manageable and aligned with community priorities.

BACKGROUND:

On January 15, 2025, Baldwin Park adopted Resolution No. 2025-003 reaffirming compliance with SB 54. The resolution applies across all departments and prohibits the use of City personnel, funds, or property for civil immigration enforcement. It also bars the collection or disclosure of sensitive information unless required by law.

The policy, however, is implemented as a resolution rather than codified into the Baldwin Park Municipal Code.

Richmond has taken a different approach by adopting Chapter 2.30 of its Municipal Code, which codifies sanctuary protections as law. Richmond’s ordinance prohibits contracts and investments with vendors engaged in immigration enforcement data services, requires judicial warrants for access to non-public facilities, and mandates annual compliance reporting.

DISCUSSION:

Baldwin Park’s current sanctuary resolution aligns with state law and expresses a strong commitment to protecting the rights and dignity of all residents. Because it is implemented as a resolution, the policy can be updated as needed by Council action, but it does not carry the permanence of an ordinance. Other jurisdictions, such as Richmond, have chosen to codify their sanctuary provisions into municipal code, which ensures consistency across departments and contractors.

Page 488 of 520 ends
Page 2 ends

In Richmond, the ordinance includes limits on the use of license plate reader (LPR) data and requires judicial warrants for access to non-public areas of City facilities. These provisions are designed to provide clear guidance for staff while safeguarding the community’s trust. Oakland has taken a similar approach by pairing its sanctuary ordinance with a Privacy Advisory Commission that oversees surveillance and data-sharing rules.

Los Angeles, Long Beach, San Francisco, and San Mateo County offer additional examples of how sanctuary policies can be tailored to local needs. Long Beach, for instance, emphasizes privacy protections and also supports community legal defense programs, while San Mateo County focuses on requiring judicial warrants for cooperation with immigration authorities.

Taken together, these examples show a range of approaches available to cities across California. Baldwin Park has the opportunity to evaluate whether adopting similar provisions, particularly with respect to LPR data protections and warrant requirements, would provide additional clarity, reinforce community trust, and strengthen alignment with regional practices.

(e) Entangling state and local agencies with federal immigration enforcement programs diverts already limited resources and blurs the lines of accountability between local, state, and federal governments. (f) There are legal concerns with leveraging the City of Richmond's resources for federal immigration endeavors, including but not limited to the prospect of Richmond residents being detained in violation of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution or targeted on the basis of race or ethnicity in violation of the Equal Protection Clause.

FINDINGS.

The City and County of San Francisco (the "City") is home to persons of diverse racial, ethnic, and national backgrounds, including a large immigrant population. The City respects, upholds, and values equal protection and equal treatment for all of our residents, regardless of immigration status. Fostering a relationship of trust, respect, and open communication between City employees and City residents is essential to the City's core mission of ensuring public health, safety, and welfare, and serving the needs of everyone in the community, including immigrants. The purpose of this Chapter 12I, as well as of Administrative Code Chapter 12H, is to foster respect
and trust between law enforcement and residents, to protect limited local resources, to encourage cooperation between residents and City officials, including especially law enforcement and public health officers and employees, and to ensure community security, and due process for all.

The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") is responsible for enforcing the civil immigration laws. ICE's programs, including Secure Communities and its replacement, the Priority Enforcement Program ("PEP"), seek to enlist local law enforcement's voluntary cooperation and assistance in its enforcement efforts. In its description of PEP, ICE explains that all requests under PEP are for voluntary action and that any request is not an authorization to detain persons at the expense of the federal government. The federal government should not shift the financial burden of federal civil immigration enforcement, including personnel time and costs relating to notification and detention, onto local law enforcement by requesting that local law enforcement agencies continue detaining persons based on non-mandatory civil immigration detainers or cooperating and assisting with requests to notify ICE that a person will be released from local custody. It is not a wise and effective use of valuable City resources at a time when vital services are being cut.

ICE's Secure Communities program (also known as "S-Comm") shifted the burden of federal civil immigration enforcement onto local law enforcement. S-Comm came into operation after the state sent fingerprints that state and local law enforcement agencies had transmitted to the California Department of Justice ("Cal DOJ") to positively identify the arrestees and to check their criminal history.

The FBI would forward the fingerprints to the Department of Homeland Security ("DHS") to be checked against immigration and other databases. To give itself time to take a detainee into immigration custody, ICE would send an Immigration Detainer – Notice of Action (DHS Form I-247) to the local law enforcement official requesting that the local law enforcement official hold the individual for up to 48 hours after that individual would otherwise be released ("civil immigration detainers"). Civil Immigration detainers may be issued without evidentiary support or probable cause by border patrol agents, aircraft pilots, special agents, deportation officers, immigration inspectors, and immigration adjudication officers.

Given that civil immigration detainers are issued by immigration officers without judicial oversight, and the regulation authorizing civil immigration detainers provides no minimum standard of proof for their issuance, there are serious questions as to their constitutionality. Unlike criminal warrants, which must be supported by probable cause and issued by a neutral magistrate, there are no such requirements for the issuance of a civil immigration detainer. Several federal courts have ruled that because civil immigration detainers and other ICE "Notice of Action" documents are issued without probable cause of criminal conduct, they do not meet the Fourth Amendment requirements for state or local law enforcement officials to arrest and hold an individual in custody. ( Miranda-
Olivares v. Clackamas Co.
, No. 3:12-cv-02317-ST *17 (D.Or. April 11, 2014) (finding that detention pursuant to an immigration detainer is a seizure that must comport with the Fourth Amendment).

2014);
Villars v. Kubiatowski
, No. 12-cv-4586 *10-12 (N.D. Ill. filed May 5, 2014).) On December 4, 2012, the Attorney General of California, Kamala Harris, clarified the responsibilities of local law enforcement agencies under S-Comm. The Attorney General clarified that S-Comm did not require state or local law enforcement officials to determine an individual's immigration status or to enforce federal immigration laws. The Attorney General also clarified that civil immigration detainers are voluntary requests to local law enforcement agencies that do not mandate compliance. California local law enforcement agencies may determine on their own whether to comply with non-mandatory civil immigration detainers. In a June 25, 2014, bulletin, the Attorney General warned that a federal court outside of California had held a county liable for damages where it voluntarily complied with an ICE request to detain an individual, and the individual was otherwise eligible for release and that local law enforcement agencies may also be held liable for such conduct. Over 350 jurisdictions, including Washington, D.C., Cook County, Illinois, and many of California's 58 counties, have already acknowledged the discretionary nature of civil immigration detainers and are declining to hold people in their jails for the additional 48 hours as requested by ICE. Local law enforcement agencies' responsibilities, duties, and powers are regulated by state law. However, complying with non-mandatory civil immigration detainers frequently raises due

Page 500 of 520 ends

process concerns.

According to Section 287.7 of Title 8 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the City is not reimbursed by the federal government for the costs associated with civil immigration detainers alone. The full cost of responding to a civil immigration detainer can include, but is not limited to, extended detention time, the administrative costs of tracking and responding to detainers, and the legal liability for erroneously holding an individual who is not subject to a civil immigration detainer. Compliance with civil immigration detainers and involvement in civil immigration enforcement diverts limited local resources from programs that are beneficial to the City.

The City seeks to protect public safety, which is founded on trust and cooperation of community residents and local law enforcement.

However, civil immigration detainers and notifications regarding release undermine community trust of law enforcement by instilling fear in immigrant communities of coming forward to report crimes and cooperate with local law enforcement agencies. A 2013 study by the University of Illinois, entitled "Insecure Communities: Latino Perceptions of Police Involvement in Immigration Enforcement," found that at least 40% of Latinos surveyed are less likely to provide information to police because they fear exposing themselves, family, or friends to a risk of deportation. Indeed, civil immigration detainers have resulted in the transfer of victims of crime, including domestic violence victims, to ICE.

The City has enacted numerous laws and policies to strengthen communities and to build trust between communities and local law enforcement. Local cooperation and assistance with civil immigration enforcement undermines community policing strategies.

In 2014, DHS ended the Secure Communities program and replaced it with PEP. PEP and S-Comm share many similarities. Just as with S-Comm, PEP uses state and federal databases to check an individual's fingerprints against immigration and other databases. PEP employs a number of tactics to facilitate transfers of individuals from local jails to immigration custody.

First, PEP uses a new form (known as DHS Form I-247N), which requests notification from local jails about an individual's release date prior to his or her release from local custody. As with civil immigration detainers, these notification requests are issued by immigration officers without judicial oversight, thus raising questions about local law enforcement's liability for constitutional violations if any person is overdetained when immigration agents are unable to be present at the time of the person's release from local custody.

Second, under PEP, ICE will continue to issue civil immigration detainer requests where local law enforcement officials are willing to respond to the requests, and in instances of "special circumstances," a term that has yet to be defined by DHS. Despite federal courts finding civil immigration detainers do not meet Fourth Amendment requirements, local jurisdictions are often unable to confirm whether or not a detention request is supported by probable cause or has been reviewed by a neutral magistrate.

The increase in information-sharing between local law enforcement and immigration officials raises serious concerns about privacy rights. Across the country, including in the California Central Valley, there has been an increase of ICE agents stationed in jails, who often have unrestricted access to jail databases, booking logs, and other documents that contain personal information of all jail inmates.

The City has an interest in ensuring that confidential information collected in the course of carrying out its municipal functions, including but not limited to public health programs and criminal investigations, is not used for unintended purposes that could hamper collection of information vital to those functions. To carry out public health programs, the City must be able to reliably collect confidential information from all residents. To solve crimes and protect the public, local law enforcement depends on the cooperation of all City residents. Information gathering and cooperation may be jeopardized if release of personal information results in a person being taken into immigration custody.

In late 2015, Pedro Figueroa, an immigrant father of an 8-year-old U.S. citizen, sought the San Francisco Police Department's help in locating his stolen vehicle. When Mr. Figueroa went to the police station to retrieve his car, which police had located, he was detained for some time by police officers before being released, and an ICE agent was waiting to take him into immigration custody immediately as he left the police station. It was later reported that both the Police Department and the San Francisco Sheriff's Department had contact with ICE officials while Mr. Figueroa was at the police station. He spent over two months in an immigration detention facility and remains in deportation proceedings. Mr. Figueroa's case has raised major concerns about local law enforcement's relationship with immigration authorities, and has weakened the immigrant community's confidence in policing practices. Community cooperation with local law enforcement is critical to investigating and prosecuting crimes. Without the cooperation of crime victims – like Mr. Figueroa – and witnesses, local law enforcement's ability to investigate and prosecute crime, particularly in communities with large immigrant populations, will be seriously compromised.

The City Administrator determines that there is a substantial difference in cost to purchase professional or technical services from another provider so that it is impractical, fiscally prudent or cost-prohibitive to contract with the sole or the few contractors or proposers that comply with this Section 2.23.030; or
iv. A contractor has demonstrated that it has ceased to perform "data broker," "extreme vetting," or "detention facilities" services, so long as the scope of those services has ceased before the operative date; or
v. This policy conflicts with law(s) specific to this prohibition.
