On June 9, 2026, the Beverly Hills Police Department (“Department”) submitted its Military Equipment Use Policy (“Policy 706”), inventory, annual report, and presentation to the City Council during the Study Session.

On June 23, 2026, the Department held a “Community Engagement Meeting” pursuant to subdivision (b) of Government Code section 7072, to allow the public to discuss and inquire into its funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment, as well as any new proposals to purchase military equipment.

DISCUSSION
AB 481 has designated certain equipment as “military equipment” under subdivision (c) of Government Code section 7070.

The Department seeks approval to add additional equipment to the Military Equipment Inventory, as outlined in the attachment (BHPD Acquisitions Request).

In order to approve the items, City Council must determine the following pursuant to subdivision (d)(1) of Government Code section 7071:
• The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety. • The proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.
• If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost-effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.
• Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the 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.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Department is requesting the new equipment listed in this report. The costs associated with the submitted inventory and requested acquisitions are accounted for and funded through the current fiscal year budget appropriations. No additional funding is requested for the operation, maintenance, or acquisition of this equipment.

Manufacturer’s
Description
The total weight of the M30, which includes two batteries, is 3770 + 10 g. That’s only a little over eight lbs., compared to the Matrice 300 RTK, whose take-off weight is nearly 20 lbs.

The Matrice 30 condenses from unfolded dimensions of 470x585x215 mm (LxWxH) to folded dimensions of 365x215x195 mm – that’s approximately 18.5x23x8.5 inches to 14.5x8.5x7.5 inches, respectively.

Pinned up against the Mavic 3 (approx. 1.7x11x4.2 inches unfolded; 8.7x3.8x3.6 inches folded), it's much larger, but still incredibly compact.

Description
The Surgeon Scalpel 591 Short Action is world-renowned for strength and accuracy.

The 591SA is specific to .223 Remington, .243 Win, 6XC, .260 Remington, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .308 Win. This action features a built-in 20 MOA MIL-STD 1913 rail and recoil lug. By integrating the recoil lug into the action, Surgeon creates a longer tenon length and strengthens the entire free-floated system.

Purpose The Surgeon is an accurate rifle for precision shooting. These rifles are equipped with magnified optics and can be utilized to take precision shots at intermediate to long ranges. It shoots a .308 caliber bullet that is bigger and heavier than a typical .223 caliber bullet from an AR-15.

Description
The Colt LE901 modular semi-automatic carbine is a recent development of the famous American small arms making company, Colt. It is built for civilian and law enforcement use, to provide shooters with a weapon that has familiar AR-15-style ergonomics and handling but can be easily converted between the two most popular rifle calibers – 7,62×51 / .308 Winchester and 5,56×45 / .223 Remington. The 7.62mm caliber option offers more extended range and better terminal effectiveness at the cost of greater weight, more pronounced felt recoil, and limited magazine capacity (usually 10 or 20 rounds).

Description
The 40mm Direct Impact Round consists of a plastic body and a crushable foam nose that contains a powder payload. The crushable foam nose dissipates energy upon impact while releasing the powder payload. The 40mm is a “point-of-aim, point-of-impact” direct fire round that is most used by tactical teams in situations where greater accuracy and deliverable energy is desired for the incapacitation of an aggressive, non-compliant subject at longer distances. The 40mm Direct Impact Round is intended for direct fire deployment. The 40mm Direct Impact Round will prove most successful for incapacitation when used within its optimal energy range of approximately 5–40 meters.

Purpose To safely resolve critical situations such as crowd control during riotous situations and high-risk tactical operations.

DJI Matrice 30T Combo
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UA V)
2 I Authorized I 5
The OJI Matrice 30T Combo with Care Enterprise is the DJI Enterprise flagship, weatherproof drone that fits in a backpack. It integrates multiple high-performance sensors into one single camera payload, is controlled with the OJI RC Plus Remote, and runs on upgraded OJI Pilot 2 software, which significantly improves the flight experience. The powerful M30T offers the endurance and capability necessary for rugged professional use cases. Additionally, its size makes it ideal for easy transportation and fast setup. The UAV also includes a 40mm 640x512 30fps thermal imaging camera with measurement accuracy of ±2°C or ±2%.

The M30T model integrates a 48-megapixel 1/2" CMOS sensor-zoom camera with 5 x~ l 6x optical and 200x digital zoom, a 12-megapixel wide-angle camera, 8K photo, 4K/30 fps video resolution, and a laser rangefinder that can give the precise coordinates of objects up to 1,200 meters away.
5 years
The total weight of the M30, which includes two batteries, is 3770 ± 10 g. That's only a little over eight lbs., compared to the Matrice 300 RTK, whose take-off weight is nearly 20 lbs.

The Matrice 30 condenses from unfolded dimensions of 470x585x215 mm (LxWxH) to folded dimensions of 365x2 l 5xl 95 mm -that's approximately l 8.5x23x8.5 inches to 14.5x8.5x7.5 inches, respectively.

Pinned up against the Mavic 3 (approx. l .7xl lx4.2 inches unfolded; 8.7x3.8x3.6 inches folded), it's much larger, but still incredibly compact.

Due to its relatively small size, this drone can easily be carried in a pack and transported to even the most remote locations.

Capability The 901 can stop threats of great bodily injury or death at close and intermediate ranges.

The 901 platform is capable of firing more accurately and quicker than a pistol while holding more rounds in the magazine and having better ballistic qualities.

Life Span 15 years
Manufacturer's The Colt LE901 modular semi-automatic carbine is a recent development of the famous Description American small arms making company, Colt. It is built for civilian and law enforcement use, to provide shooters with a weapon that has familiar AR-15-style ergonomics and handling but can be easily converted between the two most popular rifle calibers - 7,62x51 / .308 Winchester and 5,56x45 / .223 Remington. The 7.62mm caliber option offers more extended range and better terminal effectiveness at the cost of greater weight, more pronounced felt recoil, and limited magazine capacity (usually 10 or 20 rounds).

Purpose The 901 platform is equipped with magnified optics and can be utilized to take precision shots at intermediate to long ranges. It shoots a .308 caliber bullet that is bigger and heavier than a typical .223 caliber bullet from an AR-15. This caliber bullet has the ability to penetrate intermediate barriers, such as glass, with less deflection. !Authorized Usa2e BHPD SWAT - Long Rifle Trained
