exceed $178,920.00.
Police Chief John Koziol presented the Police Department's request to purchase eighty-five
(85) body cameras that will support police accountability and public trust. Chief Koziol stated
WatchGuard was recently sold to Motorola which resulted in a lower cost from the original quote one
year ago. The proposed agreement includes athree-year warranty and unlimited cloud storage for the
first year. Chief Koziol stated future cloud storage will cost approximately $41,000 annually. Chief
Koziol stated the WatchGuard Body Camera System will integrate with the WatchGuard Mobile Video
System (squad car cameras) purchased earlier this year. Staff evaluated body camera equipment
from several different sources and Chief Koziol stated WatchGuard provides the best product by far.
Chief Koziol expects the state will offer a grant next year that will cover the cost of the cameras and
hardware. Chief Koziol stated that this grant, if awarded, reimburses past expenditures.
