S191 - Out-of-State Law Enforcement/2020 Republican Convention. (SL 2019-109)

Overview: S.L. 2019-109 authorizes a police department in a city with a population exceeding 500,000 to contract with an out-of-state law enforcement agency for the use of officers and equipment for a designated period.

This change becomes effective January 1, 2020, applies to all intergovernmental law enforcement agreements entered into on or after that date, and expires October 1, 2020.

Contingent upon House Bill 966 becoming law, the act also amends that bill's requirement that the Department of Administration select land in Granville County for relocation of certain State agency facilities. The amendment would require the selected land to be located in a specified business and industrial park if the land is donated to the State or conveyed for the sum of $1.00. As of the date of this summary, a precondition to this provision becoming effective has not yet occurred, because the Governor's veto of House Bill 966 has not been overridden.
