MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
VIA: Stan Morris, City Manager
FROM: Michael A. Grandinetti, Interim Chief of Police
DATE: January 20, 2022
RE: Approval to expend partial forfeiture funds on deposit from the Department
of Justice (DOJ) in amount not to exceed $401,293.30.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Commission approve the expenditure of partial Forfeiture Funds (DOJ
previously awarded to the Police Department as the result of investigative participation in forfeiture
and seizure cases.
REASONS:
The use of these funds will allow the police department to add resources for enforcement and
supervision. The first item these funds will support is a multi level supervisory assessment conducted
by a consulting company for the purposes of scoring and evaluating supervisory candidates. These
supervisor openings are included in the general budget and need to be filled to ensure optimal
operation and adequate supervision of agency personnel. The independent consulting company,
Stanard and Associates Inc., will conduct the assessment for an amount not to exceed $20,000.00.
These funds will also allow the police department to purchase a module called Police to Citizen that
will supplement our current computer reporting software. It will allow the general public to obtain
publicly available police reports online . This module will improve the convenience for the general
public when needing access to police reports. This module is offered by Central Square for an amount
not to exceed $6,510.00.
The police department has utilized automatic license plate readers at strategic locations throughout
the city that have successfully apprehended violent offenders, thwarted crime, and provided
investigators with valuable leads that have solved cases. In 2020, we expanded the project to include

areas of the city that can be traversed on the west side. These funds will be used to expand that
project to the area of 174th St. providing coverage for an important segment of the city. We will
continue to use vendor Millenium (sic) Products Inc. in an amount not to exceed $77,578.19 which
includes 10% in contingency funds.
One of the locations for the aforementioned LPR project is in need of a power repair. The existing
power supply has been damaged by the elements and requires rewiring to ensure the site is fully
operational. Th cost of this repair will not to exceed $20,000.00.
Additionally the funds will be used to enhance the extensive CCTV project the police departmerr
implemented in 2015. Technology evolves and at times requires maintenance of existing resources.
These funds will allow the police department to hire a new vendor to assess the current state of the
CCTV project and fix outstanding issues not resolved by our previous vendor who we are no longer
under contract with. It will allow us to replace inoperative cameras and replace a software with a more
robust "future proof" option with enhanced features. The cost of the evaluation for repair by
Millenium Products Inc. will be an amount not to exceed $2,517.70. The cost of potential replacement
cameras will be an amount not to exceed $19,570.91 and the cost of licensing for the enhanced
software will be an amount not to exceed $90,722.50 both of which are also provided by Millenium
Products Inc.
Lastly it will allow us to acquire a three year maintenance of both the CCTV and LPR systems to ensure
optimal operation. The coast of the maintenance will not to exceed $164,394.00 provided by
Millenium Products Inc.
