Looks like he showed up

ER District attorney frustrated about lack of authority over code enforcement officers
TS Gallegos bemoans lack of authority over code enforcement

Gallegos said he'd be willing to accept oversight of the program, and thereby take it away from the County Counsel's Office, if the Board of Supervisors requested it and if he were given the resources to meet the demand.

”I cannot afford to subsidize code enforcement by pulling people off of other law enforcement responsibilities,” he said.

Gallegos has temporarily suspended the deputization of code enforcement investigators while the task force looks into alleged excesses, including the unnecessary drawing of weapons.

Asked under what circumstances Gallegos would be comfortable deputizing those investigators again, Gallegos said that they would need to be his employees.

Should this man be permitted any more authority over any group given what he has done to the other entities (CAST, Victim Witness) under his control? He had to be forced to attend THIS meeting, for God's sake. Is there any evidence that he will exercise any oversight if given what he asks for?

Whether code enforcement officers even need the police powers given to them by the District Attorney’s Office was brought up during the meeting, as well. Those powers don’t exist for code enforcement officers in other rural counties in the state....

...According to a survey conducted by the California Association of Code Enforcement Officers, 46.5 percent of officers have police powers, 6 percent carry a weapon and 11 percent wear a bullet-proof vest...

...When the Del Norte County unit was first formed, the county decided that the officers shouldn’t be deputized, Mason said. That could change at some point, as there are still people who want officers to be armed, he said.

Madera County, a rural county of similar size to Humboldt County, doesn’t deputize its code enforcement officers either.

“It’s basically that the county decided at this point not to do it,” said Madera County Code Enforcement Officer Eric Yancy.

Also facing problems with junk and abandoned vehicles, the Madera County unit, which has a 90 percent compliance rate, has never issued a no-notice inspection warrant.

Code enforcement officers in Humboldt County, who use inspection warrants for only 8 percent of their cases, give no notice 65 percent of the time in those cases.

When backup is needed, the Madera County unit coordinates with the sheriff’s office. Yancy said the operation can be shut down at anytime...
