FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute a participating addendum with
Verizon Wireless Data Services to join the City under a master agreement with the California
Wireless Contract (CWC) for wireless data communications services and equipment for a period
of one year in an amount not to exceed $150,000 per year.
DISCUSSION
The Police Department and other technology supporting units currently employ wireless data
communications to link officers in the field with computerized systems. These systems allow
officers to obtain critical information faster and in visual format which greatly assists them in the
performance of their duties. The wireless links also enable field-based officers to submit reports
and other administrative documentation without leaving the field. This is an officer safety tool and
facilitates the productivity of patrol/policing activities. The Police Department has experienced
continuing connectivity problems with the services provided by the current vendor. After extensive
field testing, the Police Department has requested a change to services provided by Verizon
Wireless Data Services.
The City qualifies to join a competitively bid cooperative purchasing agreement under the
California Wireless Contract (CWC). As a member, the State of California extends eligibility to join
to cities in the state. This agreement with Verizon Wireless provides extremely competitive pricing
with protections on future price increases. The City may terminate at any time, without penalty,
with 30 days notice.
