Underdoor all in favor?

All the favor.

Under new business dash contract while

an ordinance authorizing the city of Neosho, Missouri, to enter into an agreement with the Lens Lock Incorporated, a California corporation for the purpose of providing body worn cameras in car video systems, cloud storage, and software support services to the Neoshow Police Department for the not to exceed amount of $18,000.

And future costs subject to annual appropriations and authorizing the Neoshow City Manager to execute the same by and on behalf of the City of Neosho.

Mr.

Mayor, it's going to be

2022-76.

Second.

Mr.

Mayor, uh council.

Well, it's gonna be really quick, really quick, sir.

Mr.

Mayor Council, thank you very much for having a special session for us so that we can do these body war cameras.

It'll be a much needed addition to our capabilities and efficiency for the police department.

Uh

we are requesting city council authorized for the city manager to execute the agreement with Lens Lock Incorporated for the acquisition and implementation of body worn camera program and associated evidence management services for the Neoshow Police Department.

This

agenda item is limited limited to the body worn camera system and related services and does not include the separate AI reporting subscription, which we'll cover later.

Basically, what we're getting out of this is a is 13 body worn cameras.

They're the all the accessories that we need to mount and to use that.

Uh

the digital evidence management software, the um the disclosure software that that's gonna help us in doing redactions to be able to push that out to our citizens as well as aid in the prosecution and discovery requests of uh defense attorneys.

It will greatly aid us in all those areas.

The first year cost is $18,000 by four annual payments of $17,523.

I should we should note that this is a steep um discount that Lens Lock gave us over $5,000 per year for these body worn cameras for total contract costs of approximately 88,000 over 88,094 over the five-year term.

Staff recommends that city council authorize city manager to execute the agreement with Lens Lock Incorporated for the body worn camera equipment, evidence management software, redaction software, cloud storage and related services as outlined in agreement number 3338121.

The agreement will provide the Neosha Police Department with a comprehensive body worn camera and digital evidence management solution that enhances accountability, evidence integrity, and operational efficiency.

Any questions?

This is how

many cameras?

Uh 13.

We get 15, but 13 that we're paying

for.

Um the budget.

Uh

the body worn cameras is in the budget, yes.

However, we're gonna have to not fund some of the other budget priorities because the cost of the body worn camera exceeded what we anticipated for when we went through the budget process.

So the the cameras fell within

budget.

It's the AI that's right.

Yes, sir.

Yes,

sir.

How many is that?

How many police officers do we

have?

We have um 16 patrol officers, we have three detectives, we have two Lieutenants, so me, uh, then two and code enforcement.

Do

we already have body cameras?

Uh we have body cameras, but we'll be replacing the body camera system that they have because they're not compatible systems between one another.

So we'll be sharing we have a share system that we're able to maximize the body camera systems that we have.

Um and and sharing works because each each one of these body cameras are hot swappable with batteries.

We're getting extra batteries so that when the battery goes dead, we can take it out and change it.

The battery.

I believe it still records for 30 seconds or two minutes.

Two minutes while they're even hot swapping, so they won't lose any video or audio while they're in that process.

So, what happens to the old cameras that we're no longer using?

We're going to look at surplusing those

ma'am.
