CaliforniaPublic safety: mega sporting events.
What it does
Existing law requires the Office of Emergency Services to establish, and oversee the development, approval, and adoption of, the California Olympic and Paralympic Public Safety Command to facilitate the planning, resourcing, management, and delivery of safety and security at the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles, as specified. Existing law requires the office to enter into a memorandum of understanding with the Los Angeles Organizing Committee for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and with other necessary parties, to implement these requirements, as specified.
More detail
This bill would require the office, in collaboration with the host counties and any relevant host committee or partner, to prepare for the planning, resourcing, management, and delivery of safety and security at and around certain mega sporting events or any official watch party, as specified. The bill would require the office to enter into a memorandum of understanding with the host counties and any other necessary party to implement these provisions by January 1, 2027. The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2030.
This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the host counties.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
