Title
Authorizing the Mayor to amend the existing agreement with Flock Group, Inc. for the Toledo Police Department’s Real Time Crime Center (RTCC) for a two-year continuation of services for portable Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs); authorizing the expenditure of an amount not to exceed $14,000 annually from the General Fund; waiving the competitive bid requirements of TMC Chapter 187; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The Toledo Police Department currently utilizes portable ALPRs through Flock Group Inc. This authorizes the annual expenditure not to exceed $14,000 for 2-years. Flock Group Inc. is the vendor for the current ALPRs. This is a continuation of services for the portable ALPRs we currently have in service.
Summary
NOW THEREFORE Be it ordained by the Council of the City of Toledo:
SECTION 1. That the Mayor is authorized to enter into an amended agreement with Flock Group Inc. for a two-year period for the continuation of services for portable Automatic License Plate Readers upon terms and conditions acceptable to the Director of Police and the Director of Law.
SECTION 2. That subject to appropriation the amount not to exceed $14,000 annually is authorized for the expenditure from the General Fund Account Code 1001-52000-3381002STDSTD for two-years for portable ALPRs.
SECTION 3. That this Council finds and determines it is in the best interest of the City to waive the competitive bidding requirements of TMC Chapter 187 for the reason that Flock group is the current vendor for the existing ALPRs and continuing with Flock Group Inc. maintains system compatibility.
SECTION 4. That the Finance Director is authorized to draw their warrant or warrants against the above referenced Account Code in payment of the obligations authorized in Section 1 in an amount not to exceed $14,000 annually and upon presentation of proper voucher or vouchers.
SECTION 5. That this Ordinance is declared to be an emergency measure and shall be in force and effect from and after its passage. The reason for the emergency lies in the fact that it is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, and property and for the further reason to not interrupt current ALPR services.
