Summary

A council member raised a discrepancy between the agenda line for a police-software contract and the contract’s figures; staff said the agenda will be corrected to show the contract amount and noted the contract allows cancelation at each fiscal period if not appropriated.

During the consent-agenda review, a council member later identified as Ms. Johnson flagged inconsistent numbers for a police‑software contract listed on the agenda. She said the agenda lists a one‑year figure of $27,746 while the contract’s summary lists $25,746 and a five‑year total of $128,730.

City staff told the council the contract language allows the customer to cancel at the end of each fiscal period if the governing body elects not to appropriate payments due in the next fiscal period, and staff said the agenda will be corrected to reflect the amount shown in the contract. No vote or formal amendment was taken during the work session; staff said they would update the figures and bring the corrected item forward at the regular meeting.

Next steps: staff will update the agenda text to match the contract and return the corrected item to the council for action in the regular meeting.
