Background
The Lake Elsinore Public Safety Advisory Commission was re-established on March 9, 2004 under City Ordinance No. 1116. The Commission is tasked with making advisory policy recommendations to the City Council on Public Safety issues, serving as a conduit for community input and discussion on public safety issues, and to consider those public safety policy matters over which the City Council has control. The PSAC is not a hearing board for allegations or charges against law enforcement officers, nor is it responsible for investigations into alleged misconduct.

Governing Authority
The PSAC conducts its business in accordance with Chapter 2.46 (Public Safety Advisory Commission) of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, City Council Policy Number 200-5A (Commission Appointments), and applicable sections of the California Open Meeting Law.
