AB 1185: Sheriff Oversight

Assembly Bill 1185 was signed into law on September 30, 2020, authorizing California’s 58 counties to create civilian oversight bodies over their elected sheriffs. In December 2020 AB1185 was referred to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors Public Protection Committee for review and consideration. Public Protection Committee held informational hearings on March 11, 2021 and July 8, 2021. In order to facilitate increased public input the Public Protection Committee directed County staff to conduct a series of community engagement meetings to inform the discussion on the development of sheriff oversight in Alameda County.
