EXPLANATION:
SUMMARY
This Annual Report complies with established guidelines for California Government Code Section 7072, outlining requirements for the use, training, approval, and procurement of existing “military equipment” and future military equipment acquisitions , in accordance with, California Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481), codified in California Government Code sections 7070-7075. Additionally, this procedure outlines the fiscal impact and specific descriptions of existing military equipment within the Department’s inventory.
BACKGROUND
On September 30, 2021, the Governor of the State of California approved AB -481 requiring law enforcement agencies to obtain approval of the applicable governing body (Mayor and City Council), to adopt a military equipment use policy. The National City Police Department sought City Council approval of their military equipment use procedure by ordinance at a regular open meeting prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment. The City Council adopted the Police Department’s military use equipment policy and procedure on March 15, 2022, with the adoption of Ordinance 2022-2496 (Exhibit E).
Assembly Bill 481 allows the governing body to approve the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment within its jurisdiction only if it determines that the military equipment meets specified standards. The ordinance is subject to annual City Council review to determine whether, based on an annual military equipment report, the standards set forth in the approving ordinance have been met. The City Council may renew the authorizing ordinance, disapprove authorization for particular military equipment where standards have not been met, or require modifications to this military equipment use procedure to address any non-compliance with standards.
Finally, Assembly Bill 481 requires the publication of this military equipment use procedure and the annual military equipment report on the Department’s website. The military equipment use procedure and annual report must be posted on the website at least 30 days prior to the Council meeting.
The National City Mayor and City Council, per Resolution No. 2025-31, approved the 2024 Annual Report on April 15, 2025.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
None
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
No insurance requirements
BINDING REQUIREMENTS
The National City Police Department retains and employs a wide variety of “military equipment” to assist in safely achieving the furtherance of its mission statement to maintain public safety by providing the highest quality police ser vices to our community. While the inventory of military equipment is varied, the mere possession of the equipment does not warrant its use for every incident.
Per California Assembly Bill 481, without the approval of the of Annual Use Report as well as the National City Police Department’s Policy 706 and Procedure 706, the police department will be unable to equip police officers responding to critical incidents.
During this reporting period there were no required changes to Policy 706 and Procedure 706 and the standards set forth in Ordinance 2022-2496 have been met.
Staff recommends the Mayor and City Councilmembers approve the proposed Assembly Bill 481 Military Equipment Annual Report, titled “National City Police Department AB 481 2025 Annual Report,” and renew ordinance 2022-2496 with no amendments.
This Annual Report complies with the established guidelines under California Government Code Section 7072, outlining requirements for the use, training, approval, and procurement of existing “military equipment” and future military equipment acquisitions as required by AB-481.
Additionally, this report outlines the fiscal impact and specific descriptions of existing mil itary equipment within the Department’s inventory.

As such, the Department has authored the following 2025 Annual Military Equipment Use Report in accordance with annual reporting requirements set forth in California Government Code section 7072.
National City Police Department Annual Military Equipment Report 2025 4 Introduction
The National City Police Department possesses and utilizes a variety of equipment to safely resolve critical incidents and restore public safety. Some of the equipment is categorized as “military equipment” according to Assembly Bill 481. The use of such equipment may greatly assist the department in the furtherance of its mission. The National City Police Department’s Mission; “In partnership with our community, the National City Police Department is committed to providing the highest level of service and public safety. We will pursue this commitment with an unwavering resolve while always respecting the rights and dignity of those we serve.” While the inventory of military equipment varies, the use may not be necessary for every incident.
The National City Police Department recognizes that critical incidents can be unpredictable and very dangerous to both officers and the community. Therefore, having a variety of equipment options may assist incident commanders, specialized units and officers in bringing those incidents to a swift and safe resolution. The use of military equipment is restricted to certain instances and in some cases only by certain officers and/or units. The use of the Department’s military equipment is continuously evaluated and the use of such equipment by department personnel is influenced by the totality of the circumstances, public safety, officer safety, civil rights, State law, and information available at the time of the equipment’s use.
It is incumbent upon incident commanders, supervisors, individual officers, and specific specialized units to recognize the particular circumstances wherein military equipment should be employed to enhance the safety of the public and officers, and to bring a critical incident to a safe resolution.
This Annual Military Equipment Use Report outlines a summary of military equipment usage guidelines, inventory, fiscal impact, complaints, and reported concerns for the time period of March 2, 2025 – March 1, 2026.

National City Police Department Annual Military Equipment Report 2025 9 Summary of Military Equipment
The National City Police Department’s inventory of military equipment is varied and may fluctuate regularly, in particular the consumable items such as ammunition, chemical agents, or less lethal systems. This fluctuation in the inventory is based on several factors such as use for training, maintenance, deterioration, expiration, and manufacturer’s guidelines for replacement. The National City Police Department recognizes that critical incidents are unpredictable and can be very dynamic in nature, and the mere possession of the military equipment does not warrant its use for every incident. A variety of military equipment options can greatly assist incident commanders, officers, and specific units in bringing those incidents to a peaceful resolution in a peaceful and safe manner. The use of military equipment is restricted for use only in certain instances and in some cases only by certain units or officers trained and certified for it use.
The following sections outline the various types, descriptions, and guidelines for the use of military equipment from March 2, 2025 – March 1, 2026. (Note): Source photos and/or descriptions provided of some of the military equipment items have been found using open source public websites.

s Description
It's the number one bolt-action of all time, proudly made in the U.S.A. For over 50 years, more Model 700s have been sold than any other bolt-action rifle before or since. The legendary strength of its 3-rings-of-steel receiver paired with a hammer- forged barrel, combine to yield the most popular bolt-action rifle in history.

706.1 MILITARY EQUIPMENT PROCEDURES
PURPOSE
This policy establishes guidelines for the acquisition, funding, use and reporting of "military equipment," as the term is defined in Government Code section 7070. This policy is provided to fulfill the obligations set forth in Assembly Bill No. 481. These obligations include but are not limited to seeking approval on specific items deemed to be military equipment and requirements related to compliance, annual reporting, cataloging, and complaints regarding these items.
POLICY
It is the policy of the National City Police Department that there are legally enforceable safeguards, including transparency, oversight, and accountability measures in place to protect the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties before military equipment is funded, acquired, or used.
PHILOSOPHY
The acquisition of military equipment and its deployment in our communities may impact the public's safety and welfare. The public has a right to know about any funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment by local government officials, as well as a right to participate in any government agency's decision to fund, acquire, or use such equipment. Decisions regarding whether and how military equipment is funded, acquired, or used should give strong consideration to the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties, and should be based on meaningful public input.
PROCEDURE
A. DEFINITIONS
1. Governing Body – The elected or appointed entity that oversees the National City Police Department
2. Military Equipment – Any of a wide variety of items as defined by California Government Code section 7070, subsections (c)(1) through (c)(16).
B. GENERAL
1. The Department shall obtain approval of the governing body annually prior to engaging in any of the following activities:
(a) Requesting military equipment made available pursuant to Section 2576a of Title 10 of the United States Code.

In certain mutual aid or operational collaboration circumstances, it may be necessary for sworn Department members to utilize military equipment in order to fulfill an assigned mission (i.e. civil unrest, SWAT requests, barricaded suspects in a vehicle, etc.). When sworn Department members utilize military equipment in instances of mutual aid or law enforcement collaboration, the following shall apply:
(a) Department members are required to adhere to the Department's Military Equipment policy and all policies and procedures outlined within the National City Police Department's Policy and Procedures Manual, regardless of operational jurisdiction.

Manufacturer’
s Description
It's the number one bolt-action of all time, proudly made in the U.S.A. For over 50 years, more Model 700s have been sold than any other bolt-action rifle before or since. The legendary strength of its 3-rings-of-steel receiver paired with a hammer- forged barrel, combine to yield the most popular bolt-action rifle in history.
Purpose The Remington 700 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.
The .308 caliber bullet it shoots is also bigger and heavier than a typical .223 caliber bullet from an AR-15 which means it will penetrate intermediate barriers like glass with much less deflection.

The AT (Accuracy Tactical) continues the legacy of the combat proven AW308 and takes the AW to new levels. The AIAT has a 20-inch quick change barrel and a folding stock. The AT is ideal for Law Enforcement and civilian users.
Purpose The AIAT 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. The .308 caliber bullet it shoots is also bigger and heavier than a typical .223 caliber bullet from an AR-15 which means it will penetrate intermediate barriers like glass with much less deflection.
