CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
SUBJECT
Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing the
execution of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's
Department.
BACKGROUND
Violence associated with increased gang membership and gang activity is a serious problem in
the City of San Bernardino and surrounding San Bernardino County. There are over 3,000
known gang members active in the San Bernardino area and over 15,000 gang members active
countywide. Local law enforcement agencies are rapidly becoming overwhelmed by the task of
identifying, tracking and providing the specialized enforcement needed to reduce the adverse
effects of gang activity in our communities. Providing consistent training that is adopted
countywide is one component of gathering the intelligence needed to track and interdict gang
activity. Leveraging resources is the proactive enforcement component that provides local law
enforcement the opportunity to work together in reducing the effects of shared gang problems.
Reducing gang activity and its resulting violence at local and regional levels provides a
substantial benefit to the health and general welfare of community members within the City of
San Bernardino.
The San Bernardino Police Department would be responsible for providing officers and related
safety equipment during planned task force operations. These cooperative operations can be
requested by partnership agencies and will include all the law enforcement agencies designated
as S.M.A.S.H. participants. Employee oversight and supervision will remain the responsibility of
the San Bernardino Police Department. Employees participating in S.M.A.S.H will be
responsible for adhering to all rules and regulations of the San Bernardino Police Department.
The San Bernardino Police Department Multiple Enforcement Team (MET) will be the unit
designated to participate in S.M.A.S.H. operations.
The San Bernardino County Movement Against Street Hoodlums task force is designed to
provide the highest level of gang intervention expertise. Participating agencies will focus jointly
on reducing gang activity and its resulting violence in those communities represented in the
S.M.A.S.H. partnership.
