Berkeley Limits Police Department's Cooperation With Other Agencies

After a push by the community

|

The Berkeley Police Department is undergoing some major policy changesafter mounting pressure from the community to enact reforms, with new limits on its participation with other law enforcement agencies.  

"There will be some extra reporting standards required, but procedures have been put in place for us to handle these new requirements," BPD's Public Information Officer Jennifer Coats told us, although she did not provide details on how they will be implemented. "This will not affect the high level of service the Berkeley Police Department continues to provide the community."
