On May 6, 2014, the City Council approved a standard agreement with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) for traffic management and support services provided by the CHP for special events at Levi's Stadium. CHP duties may include traffic management, air operations, SWAT, bicycle patrol, and crowd control. The City has agreed to indemnify and defend the State for claims resulting from injury or damage caused by City employees only. The term of the original agreement was July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2016, totaling $1,724,811.
