WITH WESTCHESTER COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY
AND NEW YORK STATE POLICE
BE lT RESOLVED that the Village Manager is hereby authorized and directed to
execute on behalf of the Village a TraCS Use and Dissemination Agreement with

TraCS
USE AND DISSEMINATION AGREEMENT
Between
New York State Police, the County of Westchester Department of Public Safety
hereinafter referred to as the "Lead Agency"
and
Village of Briarcliff Manor Police Department
hereinafter referred to as the "Participating Agency"
1VHEREAS:
New York State Police (NYSP), working with the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles
(DMV), the Governor's Traffic Safety Committee (GTSC), the Office of Court Administration
(OCA) and other state and federal agencies, has developed a system for the electronic capture of
ticket and accident report data in a police vehicle environment and the electronic transfer of thatdaÍa
from law enforcement agencies to DMV and courts. The system is called TraCS (Traffic and
Criminal Software). Ticket and accident report forms have been developed and other law
enforcement forms are planned for the future. DMV and the courts have approved these forms for
official use. Data standards for ticket and accident report data have been agreed to between agencies
for the electronic transfer of data. NYSP has developed an infrastructure and a limited capacity for
local support.
It is the intention of NYSP to provide the TraCS software to any police agency in New York free of
charge, based on NYSP support staff availability and the Lead Agency's ability to self-support.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions herein contained, the parties
agree as follows:
I NYSP agrees to provide the current version of TraCS software (includes ticket, accident
report and associated forms) to the Lead Agency at no cost to the Lead Agency.
2. This Agreement will become effective upon proper execution and will remain in effect
for a period of five (5) years, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement.
J This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties hereto with respect b
the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, comments and
writings. It shall not be released, discharged, changed or modified except by an instrument in
writing signed by a duly authorized representative of each of the parties.
4. Each agency agrees:
Maintenance
To maintain all parts of the TraCS System under their control. The portion of the system
"under agency control" includes:
o The hardware and operating system associated with the in-vehicle equipment
o The hardware and operating system associated with the in-station TraCS
computer.
¡ Backup & restoration of all system and production ticket and/or accident
report data.
"Maintenance" generally means support, upkeep, repair and periodic duplication or "back-
up" of records in order to safeguard the data. The Lead Agency will take reasonable
measures to prevent or correct system trouble with any portion of the system "under their
control". If the Lead Agency determines any system trouble to be under NYSP control, it
will notify and work with the proper NYSP representative.
5. The Participating Agency agrees:
1. This agreement is only for the use of TraCS by the Participating Agency. TraCS
software will not be distributed beyond the Participating Agency without written
approval from NYSP.
2. To abide by the provisions of the TraCS Users Agreement included in Appendix A.
3. To not alter the form(s) and TraCS database in any way without express written
approval from NYSP and DMV.
4- To not introduce custom system enhancements during the Participating Agency
implementation.
5. To contact the Lead Agency for all assistance with the implementation and use of the
TraCS software.
6. To support reports, queries, ticket logs and any other analysis of the ticket data.
7. To coordinate the use of TraCS with local courts. However, the State Police will
coordinate the assistance and response of OCA (Office of Court Administration) and
DMV personnel to attend these meetings.
8. The TraCS system will be used for data entry and the electronic transfer of ticket data to
and/or from DMV and the courts and the printing of ticket forms where courts are not yet
online to receive electronic data.
9. Whereas a court is not yet able to accept electronic ticket data, to be responsible for
printing and forwarding ticket copies to the appropriate court unless arangements are
made with individual agencies to print their own tickets and forward them to courts not
yet ready to receive electronic data.
10. To supply equipment for use with the TraCS system, with the exception of any NYSP
participation in the area. NYSP agrees that all NYSP equipment will be purchased,
installed and supported by NYSP unless equipment is purchased by an entity for use by
all agencies within a county or region.
11. To manage, support and ensure security is properly implemented within TraCS.
6. NYSP agrees
1. To review, prioritize and schedule change requests for inclusion in future software
releases. Change requests for "bug" fixes, system enhancements, form enhancements and
routine change requests such as court address changes shall be directed to NYSP. Any
enhancement that requires funding will be the responsibility of the læad Agency to obtain
the necessary financing and if the enhancement benefits multiple agencies, then the State
Police will attempt to also obtain funding. No matter where funding comes from, NYSP
and /or its contractors will make all changes to TraCS. Once TraCS begins statewide
rollout, a TraCS steering committee shall be formed to prioritize TraCS enhancements,
functionality requests, issues, etc.
2. Whereas each agency will have the opportunity to participate in the electronic transfer of
data, via the NYSPIN infrastructure, to a gateway server in Albany (NYSP). This data
will then be transferred to DOT, DMV, OCA, etc. for processing.
7. Both parties agree
1. To develop a process for forms development by New York State agencies.
2. Representatives on the TraCS steering committee shall only be from agencies that
have signed this agreement.
3. NYSP is the sole contractor and sole contact agency with Technology Enterprise
Group, approved vendor of the TraCS system.
4. NYSP is the sole contractor with the Center for Transportation Research and
Education at Iowa State University, approved vender of the CTRE Location Tool used
in the TraCS system.
5. The term of this Agreement shall commence upon execution thereof and continue for
aperiod offive (5) years thereafter.
6. The Lead Agency and/or the Participating Agency may terminate this Agreement at
any time by giving the NYSP reasonable advance notice.
