The Oakland City Council is considering a resolution to authorize the City Administrator to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Santa Clara Stadium Authority and the City of Santa Clara. This agreement will allow the Oakland Police Department (OPD) to provide tactical support and security for two major events at Levi's Stadium: Super Bowl 60 on February 8, 2026, and the FIFA World Cup from June 11, 2026, to July 19, 2026. The MOU establishes a framework for OPD to deploy sworn personnel and resources, ensuring that all associated costs are fully reimbursed by the City of Santa Clara. This initiative aims to enhance regional public safety, provide valuable professional development for OPD officers, and support nationally and internationally significant events.

Oakland residents will not see a direct fiscal impact as the City of Santa Clara will fully reimburse all costs incurred by the Oakland Police Department. This agreement allows OPD officers to gain experience in managing large-scale events, potentially enhancing their preparedness for similar situations within Oakland.
