The council approved implementing T2 Systems parking enforcement and permit software ($54,836.25 over three years), awarded police uniform procurement under state contract for $110,372, and approved a PPE contract extension for 10 sets at $4,327 per set to Firematic Supply.

The council approved three public‑safety procurement items during the July 20 meeting. The police traffic division recommended, and the council approved, implementation of T2 Systems’ parking enforcement and permit management software (contract 080321‑TSI) at a cost of $54,836.25 over three years; police staff said the system replaces the previously used Passport platform, will allow online payment and better appeals handling, and should reduce fees charged to the city.

Separately, the council approved using Connecticut contract 17PSX0024 (MHEC consortium) to procure police uniforms and miscellaneous police equipment for FY26–27 at $110,372, to be funded from the police uniform allowance line in the police budget, pending Board of Public Safety approval.

Finally, the council approved a contract extension with Firematic Supply Company, Inc. (Rocky Hill) for 10 sets of firefighter personnel protective equipment at $4,327 per set. A council member noted the unit price has increased compared with the original vendor price, and staff pointed to a spreadsheet/memo authorizing up to a 10% annual increase under a prior approval.
