STAFF REPORT <br />TO: Mayor Keis and Members of City Council <br />FROM: Bill Dircks, Public Works Director <br />DATE: May 18, 2018 <br />RE: Additional Security Cameras at Spooner Park <br />In 2016, when fiber optic line was run to the Spooner Park upper shelter, a camera was added to <br />monitor the inside of the shelter. The camera has served us well but it has also made us aware that we <br />still need additional cameras to properly monitor the rest of the area surrounding the shelter. The <br />cameras act as a security measure and also allow staff to monitor shelter rentals for excessive capacity, <br />parking issues, playing volleyball on Gilbertson Field, illegal use of fryers, and other potential <br />violations of the rental agreement. <br />A representative from Marco visited the site and recommended we add three additional cameras to the <br />shelter to provide coverage of the parking lot and some of Eli Road, the area to the south including the <br />playground area, and the east side of the shelter where the bathrooms are located. The east side has <br />been a target for graffiti in the past. <br />The attached quote from Marco reflects the cost of materials for the three additional cameras. The <br />three cameras will cost $2,473.00. The installations will be done by City staff with help from <br />Roseville IT. Marco is the company used by Roseville IT and they have always been extremely <br />competitive on price. <br />Staff recommends authorizing the purchase and installation of three additional cameras for Spooner <br />Park at a cost of $2473.00. $4000 has been budgeted in 2018 for cameras in the Public Works portion <br />of the General Capital Improvement Budget.
