RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with Flock Group Inc., on behalf of the Office of the Sheriff, effective October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2024 in an amount not to exceed $35,100 for the acquisition and installation of automatic license plate reader cameras in County Service Area P-5 and provision of a hosted software system.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No County Impact; 100% funded by County Service Area P-5 Round Hill funds

BACKGROUND:

Flock Group Inc. provides license plate reading cameras with 24/7 monitoring for homes, businesses, and neighborhoods to protect against property crime, violent crime, stolen vehicles, and more.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

At the August 10, 2022 meeting of the Citizen’s Police Advisory Committee (P-5) a motion was made and passed unanimously to fund a two year lease commitment of six Flock Safety automatic license plate reader (ALPR) cameras in the district neighborhoods to significantly help prevent and solve crime. The cameras are the same type utilized in the neighboring communities of Alamo and Danville and would provide continuing coverage of the area to prevent and investigate crimes within the communities.
The proposed contract obligates the County to indemnify Flock for any third party claims arising out of a breach of County’s obligations under the agreement, County’s and from County’s use of the Services. Flock’s liability under the agreement is limited to the amounts paid by County in the 12 months preceding any claim.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

ALPR cameras will not be purchased and there will be no additional measures in place to deter and solve crime.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
