The Missouri City Council meeting on October 6, 2025, focused on several key items aimed at enhancing city infrastructure and safety. Among the most significant discussions was the authorization to negotiate a contract with DataVox for $338,119 to upgrade the city's facility security systems. This initiative aims to improve safety and efficiency across all city buildings.

Another important item was the acceptance of water, sewer, and lift station easements from Missouri City Management District Number 2. This acceptance is part of a utility and road agreement in the area of Hurricane Lane, between Lake Olympia Parkway and Tremont Fresno Road.

The council also considered a five-year agreement with DataVox, costing approximately $332,627 annually, to maintain the city's network and communication systems. This contract locks in the price for the duration of the agreement, ensuring reliable and up-to-date services.

Additionally, the council discussed a contract for frontline services until new trucks arrive in 2026, with costs not exceeding $132,822, primarily covered by insurance. Another notable item was the proposal to replace ten traffic signal cabinets, with a budget of $199,000, as these cabinets are frequently damaged in accidents.

The meeting also included a contract with Texas Highway Products for a pilot program of a no-traffic AI detection system along the Highway 6 Corridor, aimed at improving traffic signal timing and reducing congestion. The budget for this initiative is set at $619,500.

Lastly, the Finance Department was authorized to process a wire payment of approximately $383,992 to reconcile value adjustments and supplemental tax roll changes for prior years, as mandated by statute.

These discussions reflect the council's ongoing commitment to improving city infrastructure and public safety.
