Yeah, that's a little too late. I'll ask him to. Before it's adopted. Oh, before it's adopted?
Mark, you need to turn your mic on, please.
That would be awesome. So once the negotiation is done, the contract is final, you can share it with the public, and they provide feedback afterwards.
EXCELLENT. So let's do that. So can we tonight approve like the drone portion and all other portions but have the contract for ALPR come back to the council? Yes. Okay. Can I make that motion?
Well, we only need the ALPR portion to come, or is it all together?
I would like to make a motion. No, we're not done with debate yet.
Thank you. So I'm making a motion that we approve.
Well, my motion is to approve both contracts except for the ALPR portion and bring that contract back to the city council to be approved. Only the portion related to ALPR.
It's okay to go without cameras for a couple of weeks.
I'm sorry, can we ask the city attorney if that's possible?
Second. I'm confused. It's the same as my motion. How is it different from mine?
No, I said my motion was to approve everything on item 01 except for add license plate reader and surveillance equipment.
I insisted on bringing that contract for approval for the ALPR.
I know. It's, yeah. Otherwise nothing gets said.
My motion is to approve item 01, both parts, except for the part that says add license plate reader and surveillance equipment. And the city attorney is going to bring the contract related to that portion to the city council to be approved.
I'm only excluding ALPR, automatic license plate reader cameras.
Exclude ALPR and adjust the price accordingly. Right.
The contract regarding ALPR, I explained that there are nonprofits who are not happy with AI and license plate readers, want to go over the contract that the city has with Axon to make sure that it's very tight, the data won't be shared, and will be secured. That's important. So we would like to optimize that contract as much as possible.
When is it going to come back? October 20th?
Can we approve it quickly and then approve the other item too?
Let's approve it and then go to the other item and approve it quickly.
OK, let's make it for the meeting after the 20th.
It will be on October 27th that we present the data and go over the contract related to ALPR. Is that doable?
The motion is to approve everything on item 01 except for ALPR portion and adjust the contract amount accordingly. The contract for ALPR will come back to the city. to get public input to make sure.
We approve everything excluding ALPR. But then your office.
