I think we need a higher level of competence for that. Firefighters and Indigenous groups working together have a good track record for controlled burns. Police would probably just go out in the chaparral and tase something until it caught fire, then shoot at the flames.
I like the concept, though I’d have them working prescribed burns, not just clearing brush.
