Title
Purchase of Four Additional Speed Radar Trailers for the Police Department (Citywide)
The Police Department is requesting to purchase Speed Radar Trailers for each of the four Patrol Divisions. Radar speed trailers are mobile, allow easy deployment to any location, and provide immediate driver feedback as a speed deterrent and an educational component to driver safety. These trailers have been successfully deployed by the Traffic Division in order to respond to citizen's traffic-related concerns.
An evaluation committee representing the Police Department and Purchasing evaluated responses, and recommends awarding the contract to highest scored and lowest priced proposal from RU2 Systems, Inc. (a Mesa business), at $37,903.94. This purchase is funded through a contingency allocation to the operating budget per Council direction to reinvest photo safety program revenues back into the program.
