AN ACT relating to public safety; providing that certain provisions

department do not prohibit a participating political
subdivision from establishing and administering a unit of
specialized law enforcement consisting of officers that
provide public safety services; setting forth the
jurisdiction and authority of officers of such a unit;
revising provisions governing the jurisdiction and

providing that certain officers of such units have the
powers of a peace officer; providing that such officers are

Legislative Counsel’s Digest:
Existing law authorizes the board of county commissioners of any county and 1
the governing body of any city or cities located in the county to merge their 2
respective law enforcement agencies into one metropolitan police department and 3
provides that upon merger, the law enforcement agencies of each participating 4
political subdivision, which are designated in the merger, are deemed superseded as 5
long as the ordinance providing for the merger remains in effect. (NRS 280.110, 6
280.120) Existing law provides that such a merger does not prohibit a participating 7
political subdivision from establishing and ad ministering certain units of 8
specialized law enforcement, including a unit consisting of park rangers and a unit 9
consisting of marshals. Existing law further provides that the jurisdiction and 10

– 2 –

- *SB449_R1*
authority of any such unit is concurrent with the authority and jurisdiction of the 11
metropolitan police department but that the authority and jurisdiction of a unit 12
consisting of marshals or park rangers is limited to certain circumstances. (NRS 13
280.125) Section 2 of this bill includes in the list of such circumstance s any 14
purpose authorized in an interlocal or cooperative agreement entered into by the 15
sheriff of the county in which the metropolitan police department is located and the 16
participating political subdivision. 17
Section 2 additionally provides that such a merger does not prohibit a 18
participating political subdivision from establishing and administering a unit 19
consisting of officers that provide public safety services and similarly limits, with 20
certain exceptions, the autho rity and jurisdiction of such a unit to that of a unit of 21
park rangers or marshals. Sections 3-7 and 10 of this bill make conforming 22
changes to: (1) reflect that the duties of such an officer under such circumstances 23
are coextensive with the duties of such a park ranger or marshal; and (2) make such 24
an officer subject to certain similar requirements as such a park ranger or marshal. 25
Section 11 of this bill provides that such an officer is a “police officer” for 26
purposes of certain provisions relating to occupational diseases. 27
Existing law sets forth provisions governing peace officers and provides that 28
certain persons have the powers of or may exercise the powers of a peace officer. 29
(Chapter 289 of NRS) Section 8 of this bill provides that officers that provide 30
public safety services in accordance with the provisions of section 2 have the 31
powers of a peace officer subject to the provisions of section 2. 32
Existing law requires a law enforcement agency to require uniformed peace 33
officers that it employs who ro utinely interact with the public to wear a portable 34
event recording device while on duty and requires each law enforcement agency to 35
adopt policies and procedures governing the use of portable event recording 36
devices. (NRS 289.830) Section 9 of this bill p rovides that the term “law 37
enforcement agency” includes for such purposes, in a county whose population is 38
700,000 or more and in which a metropolitan police department has been 39
organized, the department or division established by the participating politic al 40
subdivision to provide public safety services. 41
