Summary

Mayor asked staff to gather pricing and draft a vehicle-use policy including GPS tracking and possibly dash cams for non-emergency city vehicles to improve safety and liability protection; council will revisit with recommendations.

Mayor (S1) said the city needs a formal fleet vehicle usage policy for non-emergency vehicles and suggested including GPS tracking to document vehicle location and speed in case of accidents or liability questions. Councilors noted police vehicles already have tracking and that dash-cam systems with GPS capability could provide both video and location evidence.

Members asked staff to gather pricing and draft policy language; council discussed privacy, insurance implications, and whether cameras should be inward- or outward-facing. No policy was adopted; staff will return with cost information and draft policy language for council review.
