CSI Patrol security contract accountability

Long Beach

Summary

The district pays CSI Patrol $275,000/year, but residents say they rarely see officers on foot. A new reporting tool is in the works, and the commission will decide in November whether to extend the six-month contract past December 31 or rely on the cameras instead.
