EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law AB 481, which went into effect on January 1, 2022, and adds California Government Code Sections 7070 through 7075 relating to the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment by local law enforcement agencies. The bill identifies fifteen main categories of military equipment and stipulates the following:

1. A law enforcement agency shall obtain approval of a military equipment use policy via the adoption of an ordinance by its governing body ( i.e., City Council) prior to funding, acquiring, or using such equipment, as defined. The policy must be posted on the law enforcement agency’s website at least 30 days prior to the City Council meeting.

2. A law enforcement agency seeking to continue the use of any military equipment, as defined, and acquired prior to January 1, 2022, shall commence a governing body approval process no later than May 1, 2022.

3. If approved, the military equipment use policy and an annual military equipment report shall be published on the law enforcement agency’s website. The report shall include information relevant to the preceding calendar year and contain a summary of each type of military equipment used by the agency, a summary of complaints concerning the equipment, the results of any internal audit pertaining to violations of the military equipment use policy, the total annua l cost of any military equipment and quantity possessed, and any intentions to acquire additional military equipment in the next year.

4. Within 30 days of releasing its annual military equipment report, a law enforcement agency shall hold at least one co mmunity engagement meeting to allow the public to ask questions and discuss the report.

AB 481 further allows the governing body to adopt an ordinance approving a military equipment use policy only if it determines that the military equipment meets specif ied standards as set forth in California Government Code Section 7071, subdivision (d). After approval, the ordinance is subject to an annual City Council review to determine whether, based on the annual military equipment report, the standards set forth i n the bill have been met. The City Council may renew the authorizing ordinance, disapprove authorization for particular equipment where standards have not been met, or require modifications to the military equipment use policy.

The Burbank Police Departme nt (Department) is committed to transparency, public trust, community partnerships, and compliance with the law. As such, the Department has authored the following 2022 Annual Military Equipment Report in accordance with requirements set forth in AB 481.

INTRODUCTION

The Department maintains a wide variety of military equipment to assist in safely achieving the furtherance of its mission, “to protect life and property, provide professional police services, and work in partnership with the community.” Although the Department has various pieces of military equipment in inventory, the mere possession of such equipment does not warrant its use in every situation. This essential equipment is deployed based on the situational necessity to effectively de-escalate intense situations or bring volatile conditions and critical incidents to a safe resolution.

The Department currently possesses eleven different types of items that fall under the military equipment classifications defined in AB 481. The availability of such instruments enables the Department to minimize risk to members of the community and officers during dynamic and unfolding high-risk incidents. It allows Department members to maintain a state of readiness through continuous trai ning and equipment familiarity to fulfill our mission to protect life and property.

This Annual Military Equipment Report outlines a summary of military equipment usage guidelines, inventory, fiscal impact, and complaints received for 2022.

UNMANNED, REMOTELY PILOTED GROUND VEHICLE (SWAT ROBOT)

The Department’s u nmanned, remotely piloted ground vehicle (SWAT Robot) was deployed (1) time in 2022. Below is a brief synopsis of the incident surrounding the use:

• June 21, 2022
On June 21, 2022, at about 8:50 a.m., a call for service was received regarding reports of a man experiencing mental illness and threatening his family members with a knife and hammer. Prior to the officers’ arrival at the scene , it was learned there was an active restraining order restricting the man from the location and its occupants.

Officers were able to safely remove the occupants from the home via a window; however, the man with a knife remained inside and refused to exit . The Department’s Mental Health Evaluation Team (MHET) and Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT) responded and utilized verbal communication tactics in an attempt to persuade the man to exit the house , to which he continued to refuse to exit.

Detectives obtained a search warrant for the residence; however, the man’s exact location within the home was not known. Detectives deployed the Department’s RoboteX Avatar micro 2010 (SWAT Robot) inside the house .
