Trespass Authorization Program
The purpose of the Tualatin Police Department Trespass Authorization Program is to allow property owners or managers to authorize the Tualatin Police Department to enter onto their property for the purpose of enforcing trespass laws against individuals who are trespassing when no responsible party is on site. Individuals who are found by police officers to be on the property without authorization will either be arrested for Criminal Trespass in the Second Degree or told to leave the property and not to return. lf the police officer arrests the individual for trespassing, the Washington County District Attorney's Office or the Clackamas County District Attorney’s Office (dependent on location of incident) may file criminal charges against the arrested individual(s).
To initiate the program, the property owner, manager or lessee, must submit the attached document titled "Trespass Enforcement Agreement." The form must be filled out completely, signed and dated. Describe the location as best as possible, also including what the property consists of, such as the number and type of buildings or structures on the property, types of open areas, number of entrances, parking areas, etc. The location MUST have an actual address. If it does not, please contact the Community Services Officer for more information.
Decide who will be available to testify in court, if necessary. Write the full name(s), mailing address, email(s) and phone number(s) in the appropriate blanks on the form for the person who should receive the subpoenas for any court appearance that may result from any arrest made on the property. The extent of the testimony would be limited to testifying permission was given to the Tualatin Police Department to enforce trespass laws on the property and that the person charged was not authorized to be on the property.
Post "No Trespassing" signs in a prominent location on the property. Remember that Trespass Agreements are non-transferable. When the owner, manager, or other property information changes, a new form must be submitted. Otherwise, the Trespass Agreement should be renewed/updated every two years.
Completed forms can be faxed to (503) 692-9898, emailed, or mailed to:
