Police Review Board <br />TOPICS STUDIED <br />One goal of the Board is to create a forum where the public can learn more about how and why APD <br />does things in particular ways — and for APD to hear questions and reactions about its approaches. As a <br />result, we invited APD representatives to present on a range of topics that members generated in <br />response to their own neighborhood or personal concerns, or in response to briefings we received about <br />particular cases. We also featured presentations by OIR Group on issues relating to oversight and <br />transparency in law enforcement. We hope these sessions will be informative and educational to the <br />members of the public in attendance. This year's subjects included the following: <br />• OIR Group Update — Recent Developments in Civilian Oversight <br />• NACOLE Conference Update <br />• OIR Group Update —AB 748 and SB 1421 <br />These two new state laws, now implemented, provide unprecedented public access to previously <br />confidential police investigations, including deadly force cases and certain categories of <br />misconduct. <br />• Homeless Presentation <br />Presentation by APD on its strategies for addressing homelessness issues in the city, its liaison <br />program that promotes social services to needy individuals, and its enforcement policies for <br />camping, loitering, and other behaviors linked to homelessness. <br />• Brady and Pitchess — Presentation by OIR Group <br />These longstanding laws relate to access to law enforcement records in the context of criminal or <br />civil cases in which officer behavior is a potential issue. <br />• School Lockdown Information — Presentation by APD <br />This presentation provided information on how APD responds to in -progress incidents that could <br />potentially impact a school environment within the city. <br />• SB 1421 Follow Up — Presentation by APD <br />This presentation focused on compliance strategies for the law, which as of July 1 imposed new <br />disclosure requirements on police agencies in California with regard to videos and other recorded <br />evidence of critical incidents. This would include body -worn camera footage in Anaheim, where <br />the officers have worn cameras since 2015. <br />Page 1 1 <br />65D-61 <br />
