SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Summary Recommendation
Approve a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to allow participation in the Joint Terrorism Task Force. (Police/ Administration) (Thomas Garrity)
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This MOU supports the City Council’s Safe and Prosperous strategic outcome. The approved agreement will allow the City of Yuma to work jointly and collaboratively with the FBI when investigating terrorism related crimes, to include cyber threats.
REPORT:
The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force is a national effort to coordinate intelligence, investigative, and operational responses to various criminal, cyber and national security threats. This MOU will formalize and maximize the cooperation and cohesiveness between the FBI and the City of Yuma Police Department by authorizing two members of the police department to serve on the Joint Terrorism Task Force as a part-time, collateral assignment.
Participation in the Joint Terrorism Task Force will strengthen the police department’s investigative response to local and regional crime threats by leveraging the resources of both local and federal law enforcement agencies for the prevention, deterrence, investigation and apprehension of individuals or groups responsible for terrorist related acts.
Assigned police department members will receive necessary security clearances, training, and experience in working with federal law enforcement partners, utilizing national information and intelligence systems and handling complex investigations which may have national and international connections.
