Summary Background:
The City utilizes Automated License Plater Reader (ALPR) equipment to administer the City’s parking permit and meter program. The equipment is mounted to City vehicles and reads license plates to determine whether (1) the vehicle is assigned a Residential Parking Zone Permit, (2) the vehicle is occupying a paid parking space and whether the parking session has expired and (3) whether there are other civil violations of Chapter 48 of the City Code. The equipment is leased to the City through contract lease terms through the vendor ‘Route 1’, a subsidiary of PCS Mobile, a vendor selected by the City through an open competitive solicitation.
The ALPR equipment mounted to one of the City’s vehicles was damaged in a motor vehicle accident. The total cost for the replacement is $44,949.83, which includes $34,299 in hardware costs.
Next Steps:
No additional action is required.
Fiscal Impact:
The City has received a payment in the amount of $39,454.77 from our insurer Local Government Insurance Trust (LGIT) for replacement of the equipment, minus depreciation. Funding for this acquisition is included in the City’s Capital Budget and FY2023 Parking Compliance Operating Budget.
