RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with the Phoenix Group to
provide an Automated Parking Citation System in an amount not to exceed
$130,000.
DISCUSSION
On February 5, 2004, Council authorized the Police Department to execute an
agreement with the Phoenix Group to provide an Automated Parking Citation
System for issuing and processing parking citations. The automated parking
citation system allows traffic officers to utilize handheld automated
devices to issue citations and allows for these citations to be processed
digitally. The automated parking citation system streamlines and expedites
the issuance and processing of parking citations.
City staff from the Police Department, City Finance and Treasury
Departments have evaluated the system and performance of the Phoenix Group
based on responsiveness, quality of products, service experience, and the
ability to provide a system that is capable of integrating with the current
Cross Roads software used by the City. Staff's evaluation has determined
that the Phoenix Group has performed well and recommends entering into a
new agreement. The new agreement is for a one-year term with options to
renew for two additional one-year periods.
