Mounted Rangers Agreement STAFF MEMO June 16, 2017 Special Council Meeting DATE: June 16, 2017 AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 4 TOPIC: Staff Updates, Mounted Rangers Discussion TIME FRAME: · The Town entered into the first agreement with the Colorado Mounted Rangers in July 2014. SUMMARY: Since July of 2014, The Dillon Police Department has had a relationship with the Colorado Mounted Rangers (Rangers) to assist us providing security, crowd control, and traffic control at large special events. In 2015, Colorado POST implemented a requirement of a minimum of 40 hours of annual training for every sworn police officer to maintain POST certification. Being comprised of all- volunteers, the Rangers found it very difficult to achieve the required training hours to maintain their POST Certifications for their sworn personnel. Legislation was passed which defined a reserve officer, detailed the duties a reserve officer may perform under of a host agency (Dillon Police Department), and established the Rangers as the Colorado Rangers Law Enforcement Shared Reserve (still to be known simply as Colorado Rangers). This intergovernmental agreement with the Rangers and the listed law enforcement agencies establishes the group of member agencies who will share in the services of the Rangers. As you know, the Colorado Rangers are an integral part of this agency, enhancing our abilities to police the large special events the Town produces. BUDGET IMPACT: The Rangers provide support free of charge, resulting in a positive budget impact. DEPARTMENT HEAD RESPONSIBLE: Mark Heminghous, Police Chief QUESTIONS/INFORMATION REQUESTED FROM COUNCIL: · Is Council comfortable with moving forward with the Mounted Rangers and allowing the Manager to sign the agreement? INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT ESTABLISHING THE COLORADO RANGERS LAW ENFORCEMENT SHARED RESERVE This Intergovernmental Agreement Establishing the Colorado Rangers Law Enforcement Shared Reserve (this “Agreement”), dated as of _________, 2017, (the “Effective Date”) is between the City of Idaho Springs, Colorado, the Town of Nederland, Colorado, the Town of Monument, Colorado, the City of Fountain, Colorado, the Town of Elizabeth, Colorado, the City of Fort Lupton, Colorado, Eagle County, Colorado, and the Town of Dillon, Colorado (collectively, the “Member Jurisdictions”), and the Colorado Mounted Rangers, a Colorado nonprofit corporation (“CMR”), which is a party solely for the limited purposes set forth below in Sections 3.2 and 4. RECITALS WHEREAS, pursuant to Colorado Revised Statutes 24-33.5-116, the Colorado Mounted Ranger Task Force (the “Task Force”) was created to make recommendation to the Colorado General Assembly regarding Peace Officer Standards and Training (“POST”) certification for CMR; WHEREAS, on December 19, 2016, the Task Force unanimously recommended that an intergovernmental agreement be executed to fulfill the Task Force’s charge to create a statewide shared reserve peace officer force and a POST certified reserve academy; WHEREAS, the Task Force further recommended the creation of a state grant program to fund the costs associated with the establishment of the reserve academy; WHEREAS, C.R.S. 24-33.5-1616 authorized the funding of a reserve academy grant fund within the Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management; WHEREAS, the parties mutually agree the formation of the Colorado Rangers Law Enforcement Shared Reserve (“CLER”) will serve a public purpose and will promote the safety, security and general welfare of all Coloradoans by establishing a POST certified statewide shared peace officer reserve force; and WHEREAS, pursuant to C.R.S. 29-1-203, the formation of CLER and the establishment of its reserve academy is a proper exercise of the parties’ governmental powers and duties and will also permit the parties to make the most efficient and effective use of their powers and responsibilities by cooperating with each other. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual rights and obligations as set forth below, the Parties agree as follows: TERMS AND CONDITIONS Section 1: Statewide Shared Peace Officer Reserve Force Established and Appointment of Colorado Rangers as Peace Officers. 1.1. Establishment. The Colorado Rangers Law Enforcement Shared Reserve (to be known as the “Colorado Rangers” and its sworn personnel as a “Colorado Ranger”), an all-volunteer, unpaid statewide shared peace officer reserve force, is hereby established pursuant to C.R.S. 29-1-203 and 29-1-203.5. CLER shall be a separate legal entity, political subdivision and a public corporation of the State of Colorado (the “State”), separate from the parties to this Agreement, and shall be a validly created 1 and existing political subdivision and public corporation of the State, irrespective of whether a Member Jurisdiction withdraws (whether voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) from CLER subsequent to its creation under circumstances not resulting in the rescission or termination of the contract establishing CLER pursuant to its terms and so long as there are at least two continuing Member Jurisdictions. It shall have the duties, privileges, immunities, rights, liabilities and disabilities of a public body politic and corporate. 1.2. Qualifications. Each Colorado Ranger, including the Chief, shall meet the requirements of C.R.S. 16.2.5-110(c)(I) or (II) to serve as a sworn Colorado Ranger. 1.3. Designation as Peace Officers. Each Colorado Ranger, including the Chief, shall be deemed to be a reserve officer, as defined by C.R.S. 16-2.5-110(a), of each Member Jurisdiction whose authority shall be limited to the authority granted by any Member Jurisdiction while serving in that jurisdiction. Any Colorado Ranger who is a fully POST certified peace officer may be granted full peace officer status by any individual Member Jurisdiction. Each Colorado Ranger, including the Chief, shall be deemed a peace officer appointed and authorized by each Member Jurisdiction, collectively and individually, pursuant to C.R.S. 30-10-506, 31-4-306 and 31-15-401(a). 1.3.1. Duty Status of Certain Colorado Rangers. Each Member Jurisdiction acknowledges and agrees that a limited number of Colorado Rangers, as designated by the Chief, shall be considered as on-duty at all times by those Member Jurisdictions authorized to act as peace officers. The Chief or his/her designee shall be responsible for providing a roster of those designated Colorado Rangers to the Member Jurisdictions. The purpose of this cadre of senior personnel is to ensure CLER (i) can fulfill the daily administrative and operational responsibilities necessary for its effective management and (ii) provide an effective command structure to respond to critical incidents. 1.4. Transition Period for Existing Rangers. As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, sworn personnel, including new candidates, of CMR (“Existing Rangers”) shall continue to serve and operate under CMR’s current organizational structure and pursuant to existing MOUs with its law enforcement agencies. Upon the official start date of the CLER operated reserve academy, Existing Rangers, irrespective of any previous training, shall have 36 months from that date to complete the requirements of a certified reserve peace officer unless granted a variance by POST (“Transition Period”). Any Existing Ranger qualified to renew an expired POST certification may fulfill the requirements of this subsection through any process authorized or approved by POST. The requirements of this Subsection shall not apply to any Existing Ranger with an active POST certification so long as that certification remains active throughout the Transition Period. 1.5. Administration of CLER during Transition Period. For the purposes of implementing this Agreement and the administration of CLER during the Transition Period, the Chief, the Deputy Chief, and certain command staff officers, designated by the Chief, are not required to be POST certified. Until POST certified, the Chief, the Deputy Chief, and those designated command staff officers shall not have the authority to act as peace officers under the provisions of this Agreement. 1.6. Termination of Existing CMR MOUs. Upon the conclusion of the Transition Period, all existing CMR MOUs will be terminated and any Existing Rangers who have not completed the required training or obtained a variance shall not be sworn-in as a Colorado Ranger or permitted to participate as a sworn Colorado Ranger in any CLER sanctioned activity. 2 Section 2: Purpose. CLER is established as an all-volunteer, unpaid statewide shared peace officer reserve force for the purposes of providing law enforcement, emergency management, emergency medical service and search- and-rescue services to Member Jurisdictions and, as requested, by non-Member Jurisdictions pursuant to a mutual aid agreement. Section 3: Governance. 3.1. Governance. CLER shall be governed by a Board of Directors (the “Board”) in which all legislative power of the Board is vested by C.R.S. 29-1-203.5(1)(b)(II). Power and authority is vested in the Board as described below. 3.2. Board of Directors. The Board shall be composed of nine (9) directors. Three (3) of the directors shall be current sworn Colorado Rangers selected by the Board of Directors of the Colorado Mounted Rangers (the “CMR Directors”). The Chief of CLER shall be a voting ex officio member of the Board. Three (3) directors shall be a police chief or a sheriff of a Member Jurisdiction (the “Member Jurisdiction Directors”) based upon recommendations received from any Member Jurisdiction. All Member Jurisdiction Director appointments must be approved by a majority of the incumbent directors. Two directors shall be either local, county, or state level elected officials (the “Elected Official Directors”) nominated and approved by a majority of the incumbent Directors. From its membership, the Board shall annually elect a Chairperson and Vice-Chairperson. The CMR Directors and the Chief are ineligible to serve as either Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson. The Chairperson shall preside at all meetings of the Board. 3.3. Director Terms. The terms of the initial directors shall be seven (7) years to allow for and ensure consistency during the initial operationalization of CLER.

    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Civil Action No. 13-CV-1300-MSK-MJW JOHN B. COOKE, Sheriff of Weld County, Colorado; et al. Plaintiffs, vs. JOHN W. HICKENLOOPER, Governor of the State of Colorado, Defendant. FIFTY-FIVE COLORADO SHERIFFS’ RESPONSE BRIEF TO DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS THEM IN THEIR OFFICIAL CAPACITIES Fifty-five Colorado Sheriffs, by and through their counsel, file this Response Brief to Defendant’s motion to dismiss them from the case in their official capacities.1 SUMMARY OF ARGUMENT Under the Tenth Circuit’s precedents on the political subdivision doctrine, the 55 Sheriffs have standing because they have “a personal stake” in the case. As will be described below, the personal stake includes the apprehension of criminals who have murdered a Sheriff. This did happen in 1994, and if HB 1224 had been in effect then, the murderers could have escaped. 1 For the reasons set forth in the separate Response filed by the other Plaintiffs, which the 55 Sheriffs also join, this Court should deny Defendant’s motion to dismiss the second, third, and fourth claims for relief. 1 The Sheriffs also have a personal stake in HB 1229, which makes every Sheriff into a criminal simply for conducting the ordinary operations of his or her Office by temporarily transferring firearms to deputies. The Sheriffs, in their official capacities, also have a personal stake because HB 1224 has made it difficult or impossible for the Sheriffs and their deputies to obtain standard magazines for their duty firearms. (By “standard,” the Sheriffs mean magazines of the standard size supplied by the manufacturer for a firearm.

THE POSSE COMITATUS AND THE OFFICE OF SHERIFF: ARMED CITIZENS SUMMONED TO THE AID OF LAW ENFORCEMENT DAVID B. KOPEL* Posse comitatus is the legal power of sheriffs and other officials to summon armed citizens to aid in keeping the peace. The posse comitatus can be traced back at least as far as the reign of Alfred the Great in ninth- century England. The institution thrives today in the United States; a study of Colorado finds many county sheriffs have active posses. Like the law of the posse comitatus, the law of the office of sheriff has been remarkably stable for over a millennium.

    June 13, 2016 "It is better to look ahead and prepare than to look back and regret." -Jackie Joyner-Kersee Hickenlooper signs into law biggest change to alcohol sales in Colorado since Prohibition Denver Post Gov. John Hickenlooper signed into law Friday sweeping legislation that would transform how Coloradans buy their libations. With hours left to act before a midnight deadline, the former brewpub tycoon took up a legislative compromise meant to stave off a ballot measure to put full-strength beer and wine on grocery shelves. He had three options: veto the bill, sign it or allow it to become law without his support. Senate Bill 197, passed in the final days of the legislative session that ended in May, represents the biggest change to Colorado liquor laws since Prohibition in 1933. Colorado ski areas set visitor record, pass 13 million for first time Denver Post Visitation to Colorado ski areas topped 13 million for the first time ever in 2015-16. The Colorado Ski Country resort trade group reported Thursday that its 21 member resorts hosted 7.4 million visits last season, up from 7.1 million in 2014-15. Add in Breckenridge, Vail, Keystone and Beaver Creek ski areas, which parent Vail Resorts said Thursday saw visits exceed last year's record tally, and the state's booming ski industry pushed past the 12.6 million visit high mark set in 2013-14. Vail does not break out performance for individual resorts, but the company's four Colorado resorts - including the two busiest in the nation, Vail and Breckenridge - hosted more than 5.6 million in 2014-15.

  • La Plata County Sheriff's Office { Durango, CO } a Brief History 1871
    La Plata County Sheriff’S Office { Durango, CO } A Brief History 1871 – 2016 By Dan BeNder, LPCSO Revised May 10th 2017 1 Acknowledgments Accurate history is a tenuous thing, especially when looking back over one hundred years. While every attempt was made to be accurate in this summary of the history of La Plata County Colorado Sheriff’s Office, this story’s contents are based on: a collection of sometimes conflicting newspaper articles spanning 140 years; interviews with people decades after the events; governmental records that were partially lost or damaged due to fires and relocations. A prime example is pinning down who was Sheriff in what year. Some accounts are based on year elected (most often in November). Other quoted dates are based on the year sworn in (usually January). Some people were simply appointed and accurate dates are sketchy. What success I had in reconciling names, dates, and events came from the guidance and knowledge of others. For their help, I thank: Dr. Duane Smith; La Plata County Historical Society; Fort Lewis College Center for Southwest Studies; Durango Herald; Rocky Mountain Boom Town, a History of Durango Colorado, by Duane Smith, University Press; Pioneers of the San Juan Country, Volumes I, II, III, IV compiled by the Sarah Decker Chapter, DAR (Daughters of the Revolution), Family History Publishers, Bountiful Utah. A Fort Lewis College student report written in 1971 by Denny H. Schilthius also proved very helpful. While readers may find errors, the central theme of this history of La Plata County Sheriff’s Office is genuine & intriguing.
