The Public Safety Commission works with staff in matters relating to law enforcement, crime prevention and control, code enforcement, animal control, and emergency preparedness. Meetings are open to the public and held on the third Tuesday of each month at 7 PM in the Duarte Community Center. Of the seven members, four are residents of the City, one is a business owner/operator appointed from candidates that are nominated/recommended by the Chamber of Commerce (not required to be a resident of the City), one is a representative of the Duarte Unified School District (recommended by the School District), and one is a representative of Los Angeles County, which does not require City residency (either a resident of the unincorporated area adjacent to Duarte and within the Duarte Unified School District boundary, or a representative of the Monrovia-Arcadia-Duarte Town Council, or a representative from the Supervisor’s office, or a representative of the County Human Relations Commission).
