SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Police Department
Prepared by: Dave Starnes, Police Captain City Manager Approval: __________
TOPIC: CRISIS RESPONSE PARTNERSHIP
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL
AND THE CITY OF NOVATO TO CREATE A JOINT CRISIS RESPONSE UNIT (CRU)
AND TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE FUTURE AMENDMENTS
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Understanding
between the City of San Rafael and the City of Novato to create a joint Crisis Response Unit.
BACKGROUND:
The City of San Rafael and the City of Novato, as well as law enforcement agencies across the
country have long recognized that a highly trained and skilled police Crisis Response Unit aids in
the peaceful ending to critical incidents and reduces the risk of injury or loss of life to community
members, police officers, and suspects. These incidents usually involve dangerous suspects who
are trying to avoid apprehension. These units have been established to provide support to
critical field operations where special tactics and negotiations skills are beyond the capacity of
patrol officers.
The San Rafael Police Department Crisis Response Unit (CRU) is comprised of a Special Weapons
and Tactics (SWAT) and Crisis Negotiations Team (CNT). The Novato Police Department CRU
Team is similar to that of the San Rafael Police Department’s team.
ANALYSIS:
It is clear that a regional San Rafael/Novato Crisis Response Unit would greatly increase the
efficiency for both organizations. This new regional team would be called the San Rafael–Novato
Regional Crisis Response Unit.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
The San Rafael Police Department’s Crisis Response Unit is authorized to have 14 Officers on the
SWAT team and seven members on CNT. The regional team would be comprised of ten SWAT
team members from each agency and five CNT members from each agency. Having the ability to
reduce the commitment of the San Rafael Police Department officers on the teams will result in
cost savings and reduce the impact on patrol and detective operations during training and
deployments.
Each Crisis Response Unit member is highly trained and many assume a variety of expertise such
as negotiations, less lethal weapons, chemical agents, and snipers. Combining the teams would
allow each agency to utilize their skills without the need to send team members to additional
training.
It is incumbent on public safety agencies to constantly re-evaluate and ensure we are providing
the most efficient service to the community in a cost effective manner. The joint Crisis Response
Unit is an opportunity to demonstrate the benefits of combining resources and further
strengthen the relationship with a local agency. Although an event requiring the use of the Crisis
Response Unit is low in frequency, it is imperative that the team be well prepared and has
sufficient staffing to safely perform under high risk situations.
Staff estimates efficiencies in training hours that will allow the redirection of staff time to other
priority areas. Training includes the initial training, ongoing monthly/quarterly training, and
specialized training for established team members. The following table shows a potential savings
of 560 training hours.
SWAT CNT
Officers Hours Officers Hours
Current set-up 14 1,680 7 280
Joint Unit 10 1,200 5 200
Change 4 480 2 80
The Memorandum of Understanding between the City of San Rafael and the City of Novato,
outlines each city’s contribution to the unit and specifies topics such as command and control,
training, call out criteria, financing, purchases, and liabilities. Each city will be responsible for
managing their own purchases, training and associated costs. Should a larger purchase be made,
the respective agency will be responsible for identifying a source of funding.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact. As noted above, there are estimated savings in terms of training
hours.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Memorandum of Understanding
between the City of San Rafael and the City of Novato to create a join Crisis Response Unit.

California charter city, and the CITY OF NOVATO, a California general law city.
RECITALS
A. The City of San Rafael and the City of Novato share common demands for
Police responses to high-risk/critical incidents which require the specialized attention of
a team specifically trained in highly volatile circumstances and incidents.
B. The Police Departments of the City of San Rafael and the City of Novato
have long recognized that mutual aid and cooperation in response to critical incidents

weapons and tactics purposes.
C. The Police Departments of the City of San Rafael and the City of Novato
now desire to formally establish roles and responsibilities for shared special weapons
and tactics and crisis negotiation services by memorializing an agreement articulating
such roles and responsibilities.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
I. PURPOSE AND INTENT
The City of San Rafael and the City of Novato (hereinafter sometimes referred to
collectively as the "Parties," or each individually as a "Party") recognize that the
presence of a highly trained and skilled police operations unit has been shown to aid in
the peaceful ending to critical incidents and to reduce the risk of injury or loss of life to
citizens, police officers, and suspects. It is also recognized that a well-managed "team"
response to critical incidents usually results in successful resolution of those events. To
this end, it is the desire of the City of San Rafael and City of Novato Police Departments
and the intent of the Parties to join forces and pool resources to provide an integrated
operations unit consisting of a Special Weapons and Tactics ("SWAT") team and a
Crisis Negotiation Team ("CNT") hereinafter referred to as the San Rafael -Novato
Regional CRU (hereinafter the "CRU".) The CRU will serve both communities to resolve
critical incidents which may arise. The CRU may also from time to time be called upon
as a resource to incidents outside the participating jurisdictions.
PARTICIPATION
This MOU is voluntary in nature and places neither Party under any obligation to
respond to a request for tactical unit services that it is unable to fulfill due to lack of
staffing, lack of resources, or other circumstances. However, the Parties will make
reasonable efforts to accommodate all requests for service as well as to attend all
scheduled SWAT Team training sessions and CNT training sessions. Personnel
appointed to the SWAT Team shall attend a basic SWAT Team training course as soon
as practicable, but not more than one year from the date of appointment to the SWAT
Team. Personnel appointed to the CNT shall attend a basic crisis negotiation training
course as soon as practicable, but not more than one year from the date of appointment
to the CNT.
III. SWAT TEAM POSITIONS
Each Party agrees to commit sworn staff to the SWAT Team. The goal of this
MOU is for the Parties each to assign 10 (ten) officers to the SWAT Team, including a
Team Leader and Assistant Team Leader from each Party.
The following leadership positions (hereinafter "Leadership Positions") shall
constitute the SWAT Team chain of command:
a) 2 CRU Commanders holding the rank of captain;
b) 2 Tactical Commanders holding the rank of lieutenant or above;
c) 2 Team Leaders; and
d) 2 Assistant Team Leaders.
The Tactical Commanders or SWAT Team Leaders shall conduct monthly SWAT
training. All tactical officers must maintain minimum levels of physical fitness and
satisfactorily complete semi-annual fitness testing in accordance with established
SWAT standards.
IV. CRISIS NEGOTIATION TEAM POSITIONS
Each Party agrees to commit staff to the CNT. The goal of this MOU is for the
Parties each to assign 5 (five) employees to the CNT, including a Team Leader and
Assistant Team Leader from each Party.
The following leadership positions (hereinafter "Leadership Positions") shall
constitute the CNT chain of command:
a) 2 CRU Commanders holding the rank of captain;
2
b) 2 CNT Commanders holding the rank of lieutenant or above;
c) 2 Team Leaders; and
d) 2 Assistant Team Leaders.
The CNT Commanders or CNT Team Leaders shall conduct quarterly CNT
training.
V. CALL OUT CRITERIA
The CRU will respond to critical incidents at the request of the Incident
Commander, as defined in Section VII. Incident Commanders from both San Rafael and
Novato will have the authority to call out the CRU. The CRU Commander or Tactical
Commander must authorize any deployment of the SWAT Team and/or CNT for
planned events unless the situation requires a prompt response without sufficient time
to obtain prior authorization. Local watch commanders may activate any team for
unplanned events or critical incidents. Critical incidents may include, but are not limited
to, the following:
a. Hostage Situations: The holding of any person(s) against their will by an
armed or potentially armed suspect;
b. Barricaded Subjects: The stand-off created by an armed or potentially
armed suspect in any location, whether fortified or not, who is refusing to comply with
police demands to surrender;
C. Sniper Situations: The firing upon citizens and/or police by an armed
suspect, whether stationary or mobile;
d. High -Risk Apprehension: The arrest or apprehension of armed or
potentially armed suspects where the likelihood of armed resistance is high;
e. High -Risk Warrant service: The service of search or arrest warrants
where there is a high potential of encountering armed persons; and
f. Special Assignments: Any assignment approved by the Tactical
Commander, at the request of a law enforcement agency, based upon a high threat
level or tactical requirement.
The SWAT and CNT's will provide the Parties' Police Department supervisors
with a standardized, "Deployment Matrix" to assist them in determining if a SWAT
and/or CNT call -out is appropriate.
VI. CALL OUT PROCEDURE
The Watch Commander/Incident Commander for the activating Party will
evaluate the situation to determine if the incident necessitates a SWAT and/or CNT call -
3
out. If a SWAT and/or CNT call -out response is appropriate and necessary, the
Communications Center for the activating Party will be notified. The activating Party's
Communications Center will initiate a call -out page to both Parties' SWAT and/or CNT
teams, and will also notify the Communication Center of the other Party's police
department.
The San Rafael and Novato Police Departments' Communication Centers will
initiate a SWAT and/or CNT call -out page consistent with current operational
procedures.
VII. COMMAND AND CONTROL
All members of the CRU assigned to any high-risk/critical incident or any training
exercise shall be subject to the chain of command of the Tactical Commanders and the
CNT Commanders.
The Chief of Police (or designee) of the Party with jurisdiction over the location of
the critical incident shall be responsible for the overall command of the incident
("Incident Commander'). The Tactical Commanders and the CNT Commanders will
serve as part of the Incident Command staff in all jurisdictions and will directly oversee
the operational control of the CRU. The Tactical Commanders and the CNT
Commanders are responsible for the actual deployment of the SWAT Team and the
CNT, tactical decision making and tactical resolution of the incident, with approval of the
Incident Commander.
Each Party will respond to requests for CRU services in all participating
jurisdictions as promptly and fully as practical, based on established response criteria;
however the Police Chief of each Party may accept or decline the services of the CRU
or may withdraw their employees from the CRU for any reason.
VIII. COSTS AND EXPENSES
Each Party will be responsible for all personnel costs and obligations associated
with the staff members it assigns to the CRU, including costs associated with salary and
benefits, overtime, training, and workers' compensation.
Each Party will be responsible for the costs of all necessary individual tactical
equipment and weapon(s) issued to its SWAT Team members by that Party for use
during SWAT Team training and deployment.
Each Party will, if necessary, be responsible for costs for replacing consumable CRU
team supplies used during a CRU deployment in their jurisdiction. Each Party will be
furnishing equipment, vehicles, and other personal property that is owned by that Party
to the CRU for the purposes of enabling the CRU to perform the terms of this
Agreement. Each Party shall continue to hold an ownership interest in the equipment,
vehicles, and other personal property furnished by it to members of the CRU during any
and all times that such equipment, vehicles and property are within the possession of
4
the other Party and shall remain financially responsible for all equipment, vehicles, and
property furnished to the CRU that is owned by that Party. Parties may only transfer
ownership of, or jointly acquire property for the use of the CRU if a written agreement is
entered into between the Parties.
IX. TRAINING
The Parties agree that a regular training program will be developed and
maintained to ensure the operational efficiency and tactical effectiveness of the SWAT
Team and the CNT. Given the nature of the missions associated with this assignment,
the training protocol shall serve to develop and maintain SWAT Team and CNT member
skills. The SWAT Team will train in the use of specialized weapons and equipment, and
the maintenance of effective team tactics and communication skills among members. A
safety officer from each Party will attend every training.
The Tactical Commanders and CNT Commanders will establish a regular training
schedule commensurate with POST guidelines for the level of team to be maintained. It
is also recognized that attending periodic conferences and competition events in
conjunction with annual training is necessary to maintain an effective and cohesive
CRU.
X. REPORTS
It is understood and agreed that the Party having jurisdiction over the location of
the tactical response incident shall complete any necessary criminal, investigative,
and/or reporting documents required as a consequence of the incident.
XI. PERSONNEL COMPLAINT PROCEDURE
In the event a complaint of improper conduct is lodged against a member of the
CRU, the Party employing said member will be responsible for investigating such
complaint with the cooperation of all members of the CRU. In the event that a complaint
concerns officers from multiple jurisdictions, both Parties agree to cooperate in the
administrative investigation.
XII. INDEMNITY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
a. In assigning personnel to the CRU, or while performing under this MOU,
or while participating in CRU training, each Party shall consider any such assignment,
deployment, or training an act of "mutual aid" in assistance of a law enforcement agency
pursuant to and subject to the protections and immunities of California Government
Code sections 55632 and 55634.
b. The Party whose Police Department requests CRU assistance shall
indemnify, hold harmless, and defend all other agencies and public entities that are
signatories to this MOU from any claims or liabilities that may arise out of the

claims of liability otherwise available to law enforcement officers, fire personnel, and/or
public employees, such as the defense of qualified immunity. Nothing in this MOU shall

or its officers than would otherwise exist under existing law and the involved Party's own
policies, practices, and procedures.
