Council to consider contracts for camera services and assessment software subscription with Catalyst
Summary
The Department of Assessment returned two items to the agenda: a licensing fee (quoted as $9,600) for Catalyst camera services and a $35,000 contract for Catalyst professional services and cloud subscription covering July 15, 2025–July 14, 2026.
The council reviewed items from the Department of Assessment related to surveillance/camera licensing and assessment software services with Catalyst.
Staff said one item authorizes a license (quoted in the meeting as $9,600) for Catalyst enterprise camera services covering July 15, 2025–July 14, 2026. A separate item authorizes a contract for Catalyst professional services and a cloud-based system (professional services/subscription) for $35,000 for the same service period.
Council members asked whether these represented an upgrade or a new subscription; staff clarified that one ordinance covered additional licenses and the other covered a cloud-based subscription and implementation costs, and that the company was the same vendor. The items were on the agenda; no formal vote was recorded at the work session.
Why it matters: Contracts for camera services and assessment software affect the assessment department’s capacity for property records, reporting and (if applicable) camera infrastructure management.
What’s next: The items remain on the agenda for formal council consideration. Staff said the contract documents were available on the agenda packet for review.
