Additionally, all police agencies within San Mateo County utilize Sun Ridge software. <br />The universal usage throughout the County provides for seamless information sharing <br />and connectivity, which would not otherwise be possible with disparate computer aided <br />dispatch or records management systems. All County agencies are satisfied with the <br />software system, as well as the annual upgrades and support provided by Sun Ridge <br />Systems, Inc. Likewise, Redwood City Police Department personnel are satisfied with <br />the product and support provided by Sun Ridge Systems, Inc. As a result, there are no <br />plans to deviate from the use of the system for the foreseeable future. <br />City Council authorization of payment to Sun Ridge for the current annual service and <br />maintenance invoice, totaling $70,059, will ensure continued functionality and support of <br />this vital system. <br />Police Department personnel are currently crafting a multi-year service agreement with <br />Sun Ridge to collectively address software upgrades, maintenance and service beyond <br />February 2016. Once the agreement has been negotiated, Staff will obtain City Council <br />approval. <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />City Council could choose to not approve the payment of the Sun Ridge Systems, Inc.’s <br />annual service agreement invoice. However, this would negatively impact the Police <br />Department’s ability to use this service and severely hinder police operations. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The Central Dispatching Services Fund has allocated $70,059 to pay this invoice. <br />Approval of this expenditure will have no increase or fiscal impact to the City. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW <br />This activity is not a project under CEQA as defined in the CEQA Guidelines, section <br />15378, because it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or foreseeable physical <br />change in the environment. <br /> <br />JACQUELINE PACE <br />COMMUNICATIONS SUPERVISOR <br /> <br />JR GAMEZ <br />CHIEF OF POLICE <br />6.1.F. - Page 2
