Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation amends the 2011 Capital Improvement Budget and authorizes a transfer of $73,926.94 between projects in the Safety Voted Bond Fund. This legislation also authorizes the Finance and Management Director to issue a purchase order to OnX USA LLC for the purchase of additional network storage to expand the storage capacity for the Division of Police's Arbitrator videos. The Division has approximately 250 marked, front-line cruisers in Patrol, Freeway, and K9. Thus far approximately 160 front-line Police vehicles are equipped with the Arbitrator camera system. The intention is to eventually equip every marked front-line cruiser with cameras. The Arbitrator system must be capable of storing at least 41 TB of data per year or 82 TB over the course of two years. The current network storage system in the Police Division is engineered for 64 TB, of which 54 TB is usable for video storage. This purchase will double the storage to approximately 108 TB of usable storage, an adequate amount for a 250 cruiser deployment.
Bidding Information: All purchases will be made in accordance with the city's universal term contract FL004391.
Emergency action is requested so this purchase can be made as soon as possible in order to increase the network storage capacity for the Arbitrator cruiser video system.
Fiscal Impact: This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $73,926.94 from the capital fund with OnX USA LLC for the purchase of 64 TB of additional storage space for the Division of Police. Funding is available in the Department of Public Safety, Division of Police's G. O. Bond Fund. An amendment to the Capital Improvement Budget reflects this transfer.
