TRANSFORM ING�USTICE OC <br /> sent a letter to Lexipol that their policy was "legally deficient" and "does not precisely comport with <br /> the legislative changes set forth in AB 392." This incident is just one of several instances <br /> illustrating Lexipol's consistent pattern of undermining current legal legislation aimed at fostering <br /> accountability and transparency in policing. <br /> In addition, Lexipol is not the only option for police departments. Local governments have created <br /> systems for police rulemaking, independent of Lexipol. Some local governments have <br /> implemented a hybrid-model wherein the jurisdiction subscribed to the Lexipol service but <br /> continues to publish its own policy manual. Local governments that publish police department <br /> policy manuals independent of Lexipol include: Los Angeles Police Department (PD), San Diego <br /> PD, San Francisco PD, San Jose PD, Stockton PD and more. <br /> It's time for the City to end the contract with Lexipol and transition towards a more community- <br /> oriented approach to monitoring and updating the Department's Policy. For these reasons, <br /> Transforming Justice Orange County urges you to vote NO on Item 14, and instead explore <br /> alternatives for community driven policies with community input. The City should explore options <br /> such as allocating additional resources to the City Attorney's office for in-house police policy <br /> maintenance, and collaborate with the newly established Commission to oversee and monitor the <br /> Department Policies. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Daisy Ramirez <br /> Steering Committee Member <br /> Transforming Justice Orange County <br /> <br /> CC: vamezcuaC@santa-ana.orq <br /> PBacerraC@santa-ana.orq <br /> TPhanC@santa-ana.orq <br /> D Pen alozaC@santa-ana.orq <br /> JessieLopezC@santa-ana.org <br /> J Ryan HernandezC@santa-ana.orq <br /> bvazquezC@santa-ana.orq <br /> 2 <br />
