SUBJECT: RENEW AGREEMENT WITH COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE ON BEHALF OF
PROBATION DEPARTMENT AND POST-RELEASE ACCOUNTABILITY
AND COMPLIANCE TEAM FOR PUBLIC SAFETY REALIGNMENT
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Police Department
SUMMARY:
Staff is recommending City Council renew an agreement between the Palm Springs
Police Department and the County of Riverside, on behalf of its Probation Department
and the Post-Release Accountability and Compliance Team, through June 30, 2022.
RECOMMENDATION:
1.Renew agreement with Riverside County, on behalf of its Probation Department
and Post-Release Accountability and Compliance Team, through June 30, 2022.
2.Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The implementation of Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011 resulted in specified
convicted felons and parolees who were previously monitored by State Parole to be
supervised by the Riverside County Probation Department. On August 30, 2011, the
Community Corrections Partnership Executive Committee of Riverside County voted
unanimously on the need for a county-wide law enforcement component to this
supervision. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, Riverside District Attorney’s
Office, Riverside County Probation and the twelve municipal law enforcement agencies
in Riverside County, including the Palm Springs Police Department, have built the
infrastructure for this critical enforcement. The Post-Release Accountability and
Compliance Team (PACT) is a county-wide, multi-jurisdictional team comprised of
members from each of these organizations.
The Police Department has been a member of the Post-Release Accountability and
Compliance Team (PACT) since its inception in 2011. The team is currently supervised
Item 1K - 1
by a Palm Springs Police Department sergeant and works with Probation to focus on
realignment offenders that pose the most risk to public safety. The Palm Springs Police
Department supplies the assigned PACT sergeant with a vehicle and all necessary
equipment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no additional impact to the General Fund, as this position is part of the authorized
personnel for the Police Department. The Riverside County Probation Department will
reimburse the City of Palm Springs for the fully burdened costs, including overtime costs
consequent to their assignment, of one police sergeant assigned to PACT, up to $270,000
annually.

THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE, ON BEHALF OF ITS PROBATION DEPARTMENT, AND POST-RELEASE ACCOUNT ABILITY AND COMPLIANCE TEAM FOR PUBLIC SAFETY REALIGNMENT MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
1.0 BACKGROUND
The Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011 (Realignment) implementation resulted in
specified convicted felons and parolees who were previously monitored by State Parole to
be supervised by the Riverside County Probation Department (hereinafter Probation). On
August 30, 2011, the Community Corrections Partnership Executive Committee (CCPEC) of
Riverside County (County) voted unanimously for the need of a county-wide law
enforcement component.
The eleven (11) city police chiefs, the Riverside County Sheriff, the Riverside County District
Attorney and Probation have built the infrastructure to support this type of critical
enforcement. The Post-release Accountability and Compliance Team (hereinafter PACT) is
a county-wide, multi-jurisdictional team composed of Probation, the Banning Police
Department, Beaumont Police Department, Cathedral City Police Department, Corona
Police Department, Desert Hot Springs Police Department, Hemet Police Department, Indio
Police Department, Menifee Police Department, Murrieta Police Department, Palm Springs
Police Department, Riverside Police Department, Riverside County District Attorney, and
the Riverside County Sheriff's Department representing the seventeen Sheriffs co ntract
cities within the County.
The primary mission of PACT is to work with Probation to focus on "high-risk" and "at-large''
realignment offenders that pose the most risk to public safety. PACT is dedicated to:
•Identifying and investigating "non-compliant" realignment offenders,
•locating and apprehending "at-large" and "high-risk" realignment offenders, and
•Performing probation compliance sweeps.
Through sustained, proactive and coordinated investigations, PACT will be able to share
information, serve warrants, locate and apprehend violators, and reduce the number of
realignment offenders who abscond. The support of the PACT allows Probation more time
and resources to focus on case management, addressing treatment needs, and ensuring
compliance with Court-ordered conditions.
