At the Aug. 3 City Council Study Session, Beverly Hills Police Chief Dominick Rivetti offered council members legislative and non-legislative options for increasing gun safety in Beverly Hills, at the request of Mayor Robert Wunderlich.
Wunderlich said he asked the BHPD for ideas due to rising crime nationwide, a recent district court ruling against California’s 32-year-old assault weapon ban, and a similar attempt in early 2020 by then-Mayor Friedman that was stalled by the pandemic.
