Federal Task Force Agreements

At a glance

• What: Three Oakland Police Department memoranda of understanding with federal agencies, each running through September 30, 2031: the U.S. Marshals Service Northern District of California Regional Fugitive Taskforce (extension of the existing MOU), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) task force (reimbursement of overtime and other costs), and a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) task force group for information sharing and focused operations.
• Where it stands: Resolved. The Marshals MOU was adopted September 15 (item 6.21, file 27-0030, Resolution 91325 C.M.S.). The ATF (27-0028) and DEA (27-0029) items were withdrawn from the September 15 agenda under Rule 28 of the Council's Rules of Procedure and adopted October 6 on the consent calendar, which passed 7 to 0 (Houston excused).
