City of Schenectady Andrew Koldin Friday, February 28, 2020 CITY OF SCHENECTADY LEGISLATION REQUEST FORM COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT: Public Safety DATE: February 27, 2020 TO: COUNCILMEMBERS FROM: Chief Eric Clifford SUBJECT: NC4 Street Smart Software TO BE PLACED ON COUNCIL AGENDA OF: March 2, 2020 Background Information: Beginning in 1995 the Schenectady Police Department began working on computerizing and storing all its reports, arrests, field interviews, records and traffic summons. Around this time a search was conducted for a vendor whom could supply the City of Schenectady with software which would be secure, handle the growing workload of an urban department, as well as function as a tier 1 computer-aided dispatch. That vendor whom the city is still utilizing is Hitech, now doing business as Pulsiam. Today that database has grown, storing over 750 fields of data and with the department handling over 85,000 calls of service we expect this information store to become larger and larger. As we evolve we began looking at ways to extract this data in real time and to put it in the hands of our front line first responders and other agencies first responders in a manageable, actionable way. After searching for products that could cost-effectively do this all while not requiring years or hours upon hours of coding in the Universe, Unix, and proprietary language that our records management system is written in we located NC4 Street Smart. NC4 offers its services and can use preexisting services and features in our RMS to export data into actionable reports and interfaces in real time. NC4 is also the only vendor after a lengthy search that includes the interfaces to not only our RMS, CAD vendor but our AVL, LPR, VMS as well as codes department. It is for these reasons it is in the best interest of the Police Department to select NC4 to design, implement and support an actionable interface for all of these uniquely coded interfaces. The NC4 Street Smart will be purchased through grant funding that was already approved by the City Council in 2018, that grant is SHSP/LETPP FY2018, contract number is C175382 and budgeted at $89,000.00. The NC4 Street Smart project contract and cost is attached. Recommendation/Action The Police Department recommends acceptance of the NC4 Street Smarts software.

The City of Schenectady is able to offer residents and small businesses [100% renewable] electricity at competitive and stable rates. As an eligible Participant, you can easily take advantage of this opportunity. Your electric account will be transitioned to the CCA Program, unless you opt-out by [MONTH XX], 2020. There are no enrollment or switching fees and your new electricity fixed rate will be $0.0XXX/kWh through [MONTH 202X]. National Grid, your local utility, will still be responsible for your electricity delivery, general maintenance and response to power outages. You will still receive one bill and pay National Grid, you can still take advantage of budget billing, and you can participate in the CCA if you have rooftop or community solar. With the support of MEGA, the Municipal Electric and Gas Alliance, our community has joined a CCA with [XX] others in our region. Through the power of aggregation and a competitive bidding process, [ESCO], was selected to replace National Grid as your default supplier of electricity. [ESCO] is able to offer our community [100% renewable] electric supply at a fixed rate of $0.0XXX/kWh for a period of XX months.
