4. Resolution - A Resolution Of The City Council Authorizing The Approval Of The
Quote And Master Services And Purchasing Agreement With Axon Enterprise, Inc. For
The Purchase Of Body Cameras And Related Equipment For The Laurel Police
Department.
This resolution is a five-year contract with Axon. It includes tech support, licensing, and storage
of video evidence. This contract is only $30 more than the previous contract. They will also
replace the cameras and battery packs as needed. At the 2 I/2 year mark, they will entirely replace
the equipment.
The Police Chief will also bring forward a contract for GPS locating for the next budget cycle,
telling dispatch where each officer is at any given time.
It was questioned if the contract with Axon was budgeted, and it was clarified that it had been
budgeted.
Resolution - A Resolution Of The City Council Declaring Certain City Of Laurel
Property As "Surplus" Available For Sale Or Trade To The Public Or Other
Governmental Entities Or Vendors.
See the attached list of included items. Mayor Waggoner stated that the auction is live but can be
pulled if it does not pass Council.
Council Issues
6. Vandalism Update
Council discussed what is currently being done to monitor the parks. It was clarified that a few
years ago, a surveillance system was installed at Kids Kingdom. Industrial Communications
installed the system, which relies on line -of -sight to transmit the images. This works for Kids
Kingdom due to the park's elevation compared to the Police Station, and that system allows for
five more cameras.
Locking restrooms is not the best option. Not only does damage happen during the day, but
people also try to break into the restrooms. Also, it takes staff time to lock and unlock bathrooms
every night.
There is still an active investigation into the vandalism that recently occurred. One lead has been
followed up on and determined not to be viable.
It was questioned if it was an option to have a recorder on site and review the footage if needed
instead of live monitoring. It was stated that is an option.
It was questioned if the images collected were effective in identifying people. It was clarified
that it is a great start, but there are still limitations.
It was questioned if extra lighting would be helpful. It was clarified lighting is always good and a
good option.
Staff needs to know the price range the City would like to spend to determine what options are
viable. Signage will also be put up to deter criminal behavior.
Other Items
There were none.
Attendance at Upcoming Council Meeting
All Council Members in attendance plan to attend the next meeting.
Announcements
On Saturday, the American Legion will place flags at veterans' headstones at the City Cemetery
for Memorial Day. They will begin at 9 a.m.
The Mayor and City Council Members stated they were proud of the Laurel Police Department
and the job they did to honor those who have fallen. It was a very well-done ceremony and
showed Laurel very well.
City Staff are working on proper signage and standard operating procedures for the new splash
park so those things can be in effect when the splash park is ready to be opened.
The council workshop adjourned at 7:02 p.m.
Respectf submitted,
