河滨市10月13日——据河滨县政府公布的安排，县监事会为研究警长部门监督方案而设的特别委员会（Ad Hoc Committee），于10月13日晚6时至8时在河滨市柠檬街4080号（4080 Lemon St.）县行政中心一楼监事会会议厅举行首场公众听证会，听取居民对加强警长部门透明度与问责机制的意见。

背景：县19人公民大陪审团今年6月认定，警长部门需要更多监督与全系统改革。州长上周签署的 SB 1379 要求将警长与验尸官职能拆分，县政府须在下一财政年度开始前设立独立于警长部门的法医办公室（Office of Medical Examiner）。特别委员会将于明年1月底前向监事会全体会议提交调查结论报告。

Riverside County Holds First Sheriff Oversight Listening Session on Oct. 13 in Riverside
RIVERSIDE, Oct. 13 — Riverside County's ad hoc committee studying oversight options for the Sheriff's Department held the first of three public listening sessions on Tuesday evening, October 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. in the Board Hearing Room of the County Administrative Center at 4080 Lemon Street in Riverside, according to the county's announced schedule.
Two more sessions follow: Thursday, October 22, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Coachella Valley Water District's Steve Robbins Administration Building, 75515 Hovley Lane East in Palm Desert, and a virtual session on Monday, October 26, from 6 to 8 p.m. with English and Spanish livestreams. Residents wishing to speak were asked to fill out speaker cards in advance through the county clerk's website; written comments may also be submitted without appearing in person.
The sessions follow a June finding by the county's 19-member civil grand jury that additional oversight and system-wide reforms of the Sheriff's Department are warranted. Senate Bill 1379, signed by the governor last week, will require the county to split sheriff and coroner operations and establish an independent Office of Medical Examiner by the start of the next fiscal year. The committee will report its findings to the full Board of Supervisors by the end of January.
