2. Resolution of Disputed Cases If a dispute arises over <br />whether the District or the City should assume primary <br />investigative responsibility in a criminal case, the dispute shall <br />be resolved in accordance with the following procedures. <br />a. The District shall assume immediate and primary <br />responsibility whenever the offense has occurred on the Properties. <br />The City may provide reasonable support and cooperate in the <br />investigation, consistent with its other law enforcement <br />priorities. The District, to the extent feasible, shall <br />accommodate any request from the City to conduct a parallel <br />criminal investigation. <br />b. At the earliest opportunity, the City and District <br />Chiefs shall meet and review the disputed case. The purpose of <br />the review shall be to determine jurisdiction in future similar <br />cases. In reviewing the case and resolving the jurisdictional <br />question, both Chiefs may consider pertinent provisions of this <br />agreement and those contained in the Alameda County Chiefs of <br />Police and Sheriff's Association's "Coordination of Police Service <br />Guideline" (adopted February 5, 1987 and attached hereto). If the <br />review does not result in agreement, the position of the City Chief <br />shall prevail. <br />3. On-aoina Communication and Routing of Reports Both the <br />District and the City acknowledge the importance of on-going <br />communication at all levels, and commit to implement procedures to <br />assure such communication. <br />a. The District and the City shall route copies of all <br />crime reports or reports of significant contacts with criminal <br />suspects whenever such reports may be of possible benefit or <br />interest to the other agency. In appropriate circumstances, <br />telephone notification shall me made to expedite the exchange of <br />important information. <br />b. District and City criminal investigators shall confer <br />regularly on any cases or subjects of mutual interest. <br />c. District and City supervisory and command staff shall <br />confer regularly to ensure high levels of cooperation and <br />coordination between the two agencies. <br />
