TO Mayor and Members of the City Council
N #1
SAFE COMMUNITY
FROM: David M. Dorgan, City Manager
Robert Beeter, Police Deputy Chief for Investigative Services
SUBJECT: Contract for Surveillance System with Digital Safety Technology
PURPOSE
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of City Council with
information to consider entering into a contract with Digital Safety Technologies to supply a
surveillance system for the Police Department.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize this contract with Digital Safety Technology
' as a sole source for $70,000.
BACKGROUND
In an effort to reduce gang crime in Elgin, the City recommended the implementation of
surveillance camera technology in our community this fiscal year.
The proposed surveillance system was developed in a combined effort by the Police
Department's Gang Unit and Surveillance Unit. The Police Department has reviewed
surveillance camera systems in other jurisdictions and our own department's recent experience
with our digital in-car video systems. The system proposed will morph the currently used Digital
Patroller system to provide continuous, unmonitored cameras that can be placed overtly or
covertly to monitor areas of interest. They will be capable of being manipulated covertly by the
surveillance unit and they will preserve video evidence of any crime they may "see". The
proposed contract calls for a total of three complete systems. One system will be overt, placed in
our own rehabilitated surveillance van. Two separate covert systems can be mounted in any of
the variety undercover vehicles available to the department or in homes or other remote
locations.
The attached contract has been negotiated by the Police Department.. Since this system is highly
customized, it is not possible to bid this work. The Police Department worked with Digital
Safety Technologies on our squad video project and we have a great deal of confidence in their
ability to perform the requested work to the City's satisfaction.
