The JPA provides oversight of the MCTF through a 9-member Oversight Committee comprised of a City Councilmember, a member of the County Board of Supervisors, 2 city managers, the County Administrator, 2 chief law enforcement officials and 2 Marin County residents who do not hold any of the above positions.

History

In 1979, a joint powers authority agreement was signed between Marin County, Belvedere, Corte Madera, Fairfax, Larkspur, Mill Valley, Novato, Ross, and San Anselmo at the recommendation of the Marin County Police Chiefs' Association. Marin County Major Crimes Task Force is managed by the Sheriff's Office with their main focus being narcotic related investigations. MCTF also serves as a countywide investigations resource and supplements the efforts of the existing local law enforcement agencies to better deal with major cases or criminal activity that no single jurisdiction can effectively deal with independently.
