National Advisory Commission on Criminal Justice Standards and goals 1973 – Police
This is an excellent police resource. I think this reads like a huge policy book. It links standards to the best research from the day. This was probably the first attempt at accreditation before the Sate DCJS and Organizations like POST and CALEA took over.
If anyone has a better format please share. This is an underutilized resource. I’m also looking to purchase a hard copy version of this.
This is a viewable and downloadable option from Google Books. A .PDF can easily be downloaded.
This is BEST:

War Comes Home At America’s Expense: The Excessive Militarization of American Policing-SWAT
This is an interesting publication. The ACLU conducts an analysis of SWAT. In the publication there is the analysis, the findings, and recommendations. Then in an Appendix there are a MOU, policy, training PowerPoint, operational plan. These documents provide a unique perspective (an insiders view) on a SWAT deployment.
I think this would be a perfect resource for Criminal Justice courses or for students reporting on SWAT or policing.

Community Perception of Political Bias: Are PPB’s policies, culture, actions, or outcomes driven by political bias? If so, what is the extent of any political bias, what are the root causes of any political bias, and what are the best practices to address those root causes?
