ColoradoColorado Rangers Law Enforcement Shared Reserve
What it does
The Colorado rangers law enforcement shared reserve, commonly known as the Colorado rangers (CLER), is a statewide law enforcement agency that has been established as a political subdivision of the state through the execution of an intergovernmental agreement for the public purpose of promoting the safety, security, and general welfare of all Coloradans by establishing a peace officers standards and training board (P.O.S.T. board) certified statewide shared peace officer reserve force.
More detail
Sections 1 through 4 of the act update laws relating to civil defense workers and peace officers to clarify the status of the CLER as a governmental entity created by intergovernmental agreement rather than as a volunteer organization, as it was prior to 2018, the requirement that a Colorado ranger be a P.O.S.T. board certified peace officer, and the scope of a Colorado ranger's authority.
Section 5:
Authorizes the board of the CLER to establish policies to allow compensation to be paid to a Colorado ranger if the Colorado ranger: Is deployed as a peace officer to a jurisdiction for an extended period, as defined or described in the policies; or Is deployed as a peace officer outside the state as authorized by a specified interstate compact for any length of time; and Authorizes the CLER to accept gifts, grants, and donations.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
