What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Law Enforcement Standards Board reimburses each
political subdivision for approved expenses incurred by law enforcement officers, jail
officers, and juvenile detention officers who complete training at board-certified
schools. Under current law, LESB reimburses the costs associated with preparatory
training for new recruits, and for the cost of annual recertification training.
This bill requires LESB to reimburse the costs of preparatory training that
were paid by an individual, in addition to those costs that were paid by a political
subdivision on behalf of a recruit.
Under current law, reimbursement to a political subdivision for annual
recertification training must be at least $160 per officer. The bill requires LESB to
also reimburse a law enforcement agency in an amount equal to the amount sent to
the political subdivision to reimburse annual recertification training costs.
The bill requires the governor to allocate funds received from the federal
government pursuant to the American Rescue Plan Act to provide the
reimbursements to individuals for preparatory training and to law enforcement
agencies for recertification training, and to supplement reimbursements for training
to political subdivisions. Because federal law requires ARPA funding to be used by
December 31, 2024, the bill sunsets both training reimbursement provisions
described above on that date.
