Summary
The El Mirage City Council approved an agreement allowing Tolleson to share El Mirage CAD data with Glendale for use in the West Valley Real‑Time Crime Center. Chief Marzocco noted an El Mirage detective is now assigned to the center; the motion passed 5–1.
The El Mirage City Council voted Dec. 2 to authorize an agreement allowing the City of Tolleson to share El Mirage computer‑aided dispatch (CAD) data with the City of Glendale so that detectives can use the West Valley Real‑Time Crime Center.
Chief Marzocco told council members the item formalizes data permissions that support an existing arrangement: “We currently have a detective assigned as a one‑year tryout basis with their real time crime center,” he said, adding the detective has completed training and is now “working solo in there.” The agreement allows Tolleson, which dispatches for El Mirage, to disclose CAD information to Glendale for use by the center.
Councilmember Dorsey moved to approve the MOU and Councilmember Winston seconded. Mayor Hermosillo announced the motion passed with five ayes and one nay.
Supporters said the center expands investigative capacity in the region; no speaker requested further staff follow‑up during the meeting. The council did not attach conditions to the approval or request additional reporting in the motion.
The action was taken under the regular agenda as item 6.1a. The agreement formalizes shared operations already described by police staff and does not change El Mirage’s dispatch provider or the detective assignment.
