Policies & Public Postings
The California State University (CSU) police department policies are developed using Lexipol, a comprehensive policy management system based on constitutional law and nationally recognized best practices. As the industry standard used by most law enforcement agencies in California, Lexipol ensures our policies remain current, legally sound, and operationally effective.
All publicly accessible law enforcement policies are posted here to promote transparency and accountability. These policies are routinely reviewed and updated to reflect changes in state and federal law, as well as emerging standards in professional policing.

Regulated Equipment and Tools (AB 481)
In July of 2022, the Board of Trustees approved a system-wide Regulated Tools and Equipment policy for its twenty-three (23) Police Departments. This policy was adopted and published as outlined by Assembly Bill 481, and requires every law enforcement agency in the State of California to publish certain information annually regarding specified equipment.
