CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 5A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Rick DeGardner, Public Services Director MEETING DATE: September 23, 2019 TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 19-119, Approving Contract With Electro Watchman, Inc. VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION The Council is being asked to consider Resolution No. 19-119, which approves the contract with Electro Watchman, Inc., to replace the existing access control systems at the Civic Complex, Fire Station #1, and Fire Station #2. BACKGROUND We have been experiencing significant issues at various locations over the past twelve months. Staff has continually worked with the current vendor to attempt to resolve these issues. Staff and the existing vendor have come to the conclusion that any further modifications will not eliminate some of the issues we continue to experience. Staff is recommending entering into a contract with Electro Watchman, Inc. to replace the existing access control equipment with Lenel/S2 hardware and administration software at all three locations. To reduce installation and on -going costs, the access system will be connected to the existing Roseville database server. Other cities utilizing the Lenel/S2 system within the Metro-Inet consortium include Roseville, Hugo, Forest Lake, St. Anthony, and Little Canada. The total project cost is $29,958.97. This includes replacing the outdoor card reader pedestal for the Police Department ($1,020.44) and upgrading one card reader at each fire station with a card reader/keypad ($1,000.38). Staff is recommending funding from the General Operating - Government Buildings Fund. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 19-119.
