RACIAL PROFILING POLICY OF THE CITY OF RIVER OAKS, TEXAS
I. Policy and Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to reaffirm the City of River Oaks Police Department's commitment to unbiased policing
in all its encounters with any person; to reinforce procedures that serve to ensure public confidence and mutual trust
through the provision of services in a fair and equitable fashion; and to protect out officers from unwarranted
accusations of misconduct when they act within the dictates of departmental policy and the law.
It is the policy of this department to police in a proactive manner and, to aggressively investigate suspected violations
of the law. Officers shall actively enforce state and federal laws in a responsible and professional manner, without
regard to race, ethnicity or national origin. Officers are strictly prohibited from engaging in racial profiling as
defined in this policy. Racial profiling is an unacceptable patrol tactic and will not be condoned.
This Racial Profiling Policy is adopted in compliance with the requirements of Articles 2.131 through 2.136, Texas Code
of Criminal Procedure, which prohibits Texas peace officers from engaging in racial profiling.
