County staff: Axon contract will add 25 in-car cameras this year, expands body-cam and other systems
Summary
A county presenter said the second year of the Axon contract requires installation of 25 additional in-car cameras (in addition to 35 from year one) and covers body cameras, tasers, interview-room equipment and drones; installations are expected late summer to early fall.
A county presenter, Brian, updated the commission that the county is in year two of an extended contract with Axon, the vendor that supplies body cameras, in-car cameras and related equipment. He said year one required installation of 35 in-car cameras and that year two requires 25 additional in-car cameras; installations are expected in late summer or early fall as new patrol vehicles are scheduled for equipment mounting.
"Year one was requirement to install 35 cameras in the cars...year two they're supposed to install another 25," Brian said. He told commissioners the contract also includes body cameras, tasers, interview-room systems and drones so the systems integrate across fleet and evidence workflows.
Brian said the county has already received some equipment and will schedule vehicle installations when new cars arrive. Commissioners asked whether all first-response officers have body cameras; Brian said primary first-responding patrol officers do, while some corrections, court security and administrative staff do not.
No formal procurement action was required at this meeting; the presentation was an update on expected installations and system integration.
