Scott County staff review proposed $1.08 million Motorola digital-evidence contract
Summary
County staff presented a proposed 10-year Motorola digital evidence management agreement totaling $1,084,894.87; board members questioned contract length, termination terms, CJIS compliance and camera life expectancy. No final vote appears in the transcript.
Applications Manager Stephanie Macuga told the Scott County Board of Supervisors on June 30 that county staff had negotiated a 10-year agreement with Motorola for Public Safety Digital Evidence Management Software with a total cost of $1,084,894.87. Macuga said year-one implementation costs would be $161,902.72, and years two through ten were not to exceed $102,318.97 annually.
The proposal drew questions from supervisors about practical and policy implications. Supervisor Beck discussed camera options and asked Sheriff Tim Lane and Motorola representative Josh Medeiros to explain device and camera configurations. Supervisor Bribriesco raised concerns about contract terms, compliance with the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policy, and projected camera life expectancy, asking staff to clarify those points before any final decision.
Sheriff Tim Lane and Josh Medeiros of Motorola participated in the discussion and answered technical questions; the transcript records the presentation and exchanges but does not record a motion or vote to approve the contract.
Why it matters: the contract would centralize digital evidence storage and management for public-safety agencies, carry multi-year budget implications, and require CJIS-compliant handling of sensitive information. Supervisors’ questions about termination terms and camera longevity could affect total lifecycle costs and future procurement decisions.
Next steps: staff presented the contract terms for Board review. The transcript does not record a final Board action on the Motorola agreement; further review or a formal vote may be scheduled at a subsequent meeting.
