Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with K.N.S. Services, Inc. for security camera upgrades for Fleet Management, 4211 Groves Road.
This ordinance seeks authority for the replacement of the existing outdated cameras on the interior and exterior of the building. Additional cameras will be installed throughout the building and around the perimeter for added security. In total, 24 exterior cameras and 30 interior cameras will be installed/upgraded. These camera upgrades will better enable the Fleet Management division to monitor common use areas along the exterior and interior of the building.

This will enhance video storage/retrieval and will also provide scalability to the system.
