BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clarita (City) has contracted for law enforcement services with the Los
Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD) since incorporation. All cities that contract their
law enforcement services with LASD must sign an agreement with Los Angeles County
(County), known as the Municipal Law Enforcement Services Agreement (MLESA). The
MLESA outlines LASD's scope of services and obligations agreed upon between all contract
cities and the County.
Page 1
Packet Pg. 203
O
The MLESA is a five-year agreement and the current MLESA is set to expire on June 30, 2024.
Over the past year, a subcommittee from the California Contract Cities Association (CCCA),
consisting of City Managers, met with the County and LASD to potentially negotiate and revise
the MLESA. The subcommittee included City staff. The proposed MLESA for the next term,
starting on July 1, 2024, and concluding on June 30, 2029, includes revisions that were mutually
agreed upon by the County and the CCCA subcommittee.
Although an agreement has been reached on changes to the MLESA, changes to liability and
indemnity language, which is included on separate agreements, have not been reached before the
renewal deadline. As cited in Section 5.4 to the MLESA, the subcommittee and County will
continue discussions intended to revise liability and indemnity language. The intent is to find
language where contract cities share in the financial exposure with the County instead of the
current burden falling completely on the Liability Trust Fund, and by extension, the contract
cities.
The proposed MLESA includes several changes based on the contract cities negotiations, which
are beneficial to contract cities. The changes include:
• Performance will be by Service Unit Rather than Overall - as the MLESA performance is
based on service minutes, the number of deputies and civilians procured by a city are
translated into available minutes. This allows LASD to mix and match minutes to achieve
its 98-102 percent performance target rate but can lead to unintended consequences to
underperform in areas like traffic, special assignment, or motor units or results in service
levels that may not match a city's need or demand during a particular time of day or day
of week.
The change would set the 98-102 percent performance target rate for each specific unit -
patrol, motor, special assignment deputies increasing accountability to cities receiving the
level of service expected when procuring specific resources. As an example, overages in
patrol minutes cannot be made up by reducing service levels of a motor unit or special
assignment deputy and vice versa.
Retaining Vehicle of Deleted Service Unit - when a city adds a new resource that requires
a vehicle (i.e. a new deputy), the city incurs a significant first -year expense for the
additional vehicle required for this new deputy. The maintenance and replacement costs
of the vehicle are already integrated into the annual charge to the city if the city keeps the
new deputy. While LASD has a practice on this, the language of the MLESA was not
explicit to protect a city from losing a deputy temporarily and then paying another new
vehicle cost when the city restored the deputy. The MLESA adds language that a city can
regain access to a vehicle procured with a new deputy service unit when the unit is
deleted and restored within 24 months.
• Transfer of City Property to County - this provision requires separate written agreements
managed at LASD contract city stations to govern items purchased by the City and
temporarily transferred to the County. Additionally, the County must maintain a detailed
and regularly updated inventory of all non -vehicle City equipment in its possession,
including descriptions, serial numbers (if applicable), condition upon receipt, and
Page 2
Packet Pg. 204
O
location.
• Equipment Replacement after Extended Maintenance and Repair - this provision requires
that the County will make best efforts to provide a temporary replacement if the original
equipment takes more than 60 days to be returned.
Continue Negotiations on Indemnity Agreements - outlined in Section 5.4 of the
MLESA, this provision acknowledges the continued negotiations between the County
and contract cities related to concerns that cities bear the full cost of liability for contract
activities when the County should share in such liability. A Letter of Understanding
between the County and the California Contract Cities Association outlines how both
parties will work towards addressing concerns in several areas raised by contract cities.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action, as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The resources required to implement the recommended action are contained within the City of
Santa Clarita's adopted FY 2024-25 budget.

A. Whereas, the City is desirous of contracting with the County for the performance of
a�
municipal law enforcement services by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department
("Sheriffs Department"); and N
B. Whereas, the County is agreeable to rendering such municipal law enforcement services
on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and
C. Whereas, this Agreement is authorized by Sections 561/z and 563/4 of the County Charter
and California Government Code Section 51301.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and for good and
valuable consideration, the parties mutually agree as follows:
1.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
1.1 The County, by and through the Sheriffs Department, agrees to provide general
law enforcement services within the corporate limits of the City to the extent and
in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.
1.2 Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, such services shall
only encompass duties and functions of the type coming within the jurisdiction of
and customarily rendered by the Sheriffs Department under the County Charter,
State of California statutes, and the City municipal codes.
1.3 General law enforcement services performed hereunder may include, if requested
by the City, supplemental security support, supplemental sworn officer support, and

2.5
During the term of this Agreement, the Sheriff or his designee shall serve as the
Chief of Police of the City and shall perform the functions of the Chief of Police at
the direction of the City.
The rendition of the services performed by the Sheriffs Department, the standards
of performance, the discipline of officers, and other matters incident to the
performance of such services and the control of personnel so employed shall remain
with the County. The City understands and agrees that, at the Sheriff's
Department's sole discretion, the Sheriff's Department may redeploy personnel for
mutual aid purposes pursuant to the California Emergency Services Act, codified
at California Government Code Sections 8550-8668. Absent exigent
circumstances, any sustained deployment of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
City's contracted items, with the calculation determined by service unit type,
requires consultation with the City manager or his/her designee. For the purpose
of this section, exigent circumstances are defined as such cases where the
immediacy of deployment is of such nature where prior consultation is materially
detrimental to public safety and the length of such deployment does not exceed 24
hours.
In the event of a dispute between the parties to this Agreement as to the extent of
the duties and functions to be rendered hereunder, or the minimum level or manner
of performance of such service, the City shall be consulted and a mutual
determination thereof shall be made by both the Sheriffs Department and the City.
The City shall first consult with the Station Captain, Division Commander, and
Division Chief, in an effort to reach a mutual determination. If a mutual
determination cannot be realized at a subordinate level, then the matter will be
elevated to a Sheriff's Department Assistant Sheriff or the Sheriff.
With regard to Paragraphs 2.2 and 2.3 above, the Sheriffs Department, in an
unresolved dispute, shall have final and conclusive determination as between the
parties hereto.
All City employees who work in conjunction with the Sheriff's Department
pursuant to this Agreement shall remain employees of the City and shall not have
2

any claim or right to employment, civil service protection, salary, or benefits or
claims of any kind from the County based on this Agreement. No City employees
as such shall become employees of the County unless by specific additional
agreement in the form of a merger agreement which must be concurrently adopted
by the City and the County. The Sheriff's Department will provide approved City
employees with the required training necessary to access authorized County
w
programs (i.e. CAD, MDC, etc.), so such City employees can perform the functions
of their positions. °
While performing law enforcement services and functions under this Agreement,
as
every Sheriff's Department employee shall be authorized to enforce all City laws
and regulations, including all City codes and ordinances. N
0
The City shall not be called upon to assume any liability for the direct payment of N

r
c
personnel performing services hereunder for the City. Except as herein otherwise °

specified, the City shall not be liable for compensation or indemnity to any County 2
employee or agent of the County for injury or sickness arising out of the y
m
performance of services under this Agreement.

(98%) for each service unit type, then the respective Sheriffs Department Division
c
Chief shall meet with the Sheriffs Department Station Captain and the City to
m
discuss compliance and identify a plan for resolution. If the City is dissatisfied with Q
the outcome of either resolution process, the matter will be elevated to a Sheriffs
Department Assistant Sheriff or the Sheriff until all City concerns are fully
resolved. Resolution may include, but is not limited to, the use of overtime, staffing
adjustments, and/or City -initiated service suspensions, at no additional cost to the
