At the Oct. 27 Boca Raton council workshop, resident Christina Escalante asked the council for greater transparency about a 287(g) agreement she said the Boca Raton Police Department signed with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement earlier in 2025.

Escalante said she could not find the agreement on the police or city websites but located it on ICE’s site. She asked the council what police policies now are on obscuring officer identities, on language‑based stops and on checking domestic workers’ identification. She said she wanted a public web page explaining the department’s current policies and any changes since national policing reforms following the George Floyd protests.

Escalante said her request was not an attack on local police and that she had friends and training partners who are law enforcement, but she urged public disclosure so residents — particularly non‑English speakers and domestic workers — understand local practice.

City response: The city manager and city attorney acknowledged receipt of resident emails and said staff had responded; no new policy was announced at the workshop. The council did not take formal action but invited staff to make public communications available and to clarify applicable policies.

Ending: Staff indicated they would continue to respond to residents and post relevant information; Escalante asked that the city publish a clear policy page comparable to previous city communications on policing reforms.
