Item No: 8C MourmS VIry City of Mounds View Staff R Meeting Date:06/24/2024 Type of Business: Council Business Administrator Review: To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Ben Zender, Chief of Police Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9941, Approving the Purchase of (2) M500 In- Car Camera Systems and (13) V700 Body Worn Cameras. Introduction: The Police Department is due to upgrade our in -car camera systems and our body worn cameras. Discussion: The department is requesting the purchase of (2) M500 in -car camera systems and (13) V700 body worn cameras. The Mounds View Police Department as well as the public deserve to have reliable video evidence camera systems. The physical server was replaced in October of 2023 and the additional video footage migration from the physical server to the cloud was completed in February of 2024. This will allow the Mounds View Police Department to begin replacing the old in -car camera systems and the body worn cameras along with additional equipment as necessary. The old Vista body worn cameras are compatible with the cloud, however, Motorola is phasing out the old Vista body cameras and the 4RE in -car camera systems which we currently have. The newer M500 in -car camera systems and the new V700 body worn cameras are compatible with the cloud. The upfront cost for hardware, accessories, and implentation will be approximately $21,418.00 for the first year with each of the next 4 years costing approximately $14,988.00 annually. The total purchasing cost of (2) M500 in -car camera systems and (13) V700 body worn cameras costs approximately $81,370.00 for 5 years with the initial year being paid from Account 480-4200-3030 (2023 Public Safety Aid money) and the next 4 years being paid from the operating budget (100-4200-3030). Recommendation: Staff recommends authorizing the purchase of (2) M500 In -car camera systems and (13) V700 body worn cameras. Respectfully Submitted, Ben Zender Chief of Police
