boar~ would hear his recommendation before the end of the meeting

soon.

$560,581.10
$503,918.25
$532,927.00
Mayor Brainard gave the bids to Mr. Klingensmith for review.
BID AWARD:
In-car Camera Systems: Police Chief Michael Fogarty recommended
the board award the bid for the in-car camera systems'to Kustom
Signals. He stated the dispute about what size monitor was
included in the bid had been resolved at no extra cost to the
city. Chief Fogarty stated Kustom's compliance with the bid
specifications made the company the lowest most responsive and
responsible bidder.
Greg Thomas, the president and owner of New Era Sales, Inc.,
stated Kustom had not stated it would comply with the city's
specification to interface with Genesis I or Genesis II radars.
Mr. Thomas stated his company's bid for the radar was lower than
Kustom's bid. The mayor stated he wanted to know if Mr. Thomas's
entire bid for the camera systems was lower, not just if part of
the bid was lower. Mayor Brainard stated the Board did not
usually allow vendors to make their sales presentations at Board
meetings.
Chief Fogarty stated the bid he had recommended to the board
(Kustom) was only for the videos. He stated that Maj. Jerry
Honaker had discussed the matter with Kustom. The mayor asked
Chief Fogarty to restate his recommendation. Chief Fogarty stated
he still recommended the bid be awarded to Kustom Signals. Mayor
Brainard asked if the bid consisted of integrated radar and
camera units. Chief Fogarty stated the radar units were not part
of the bid, and that the police department would obtain quotes
for them separately. He explained that the issue Mr. Thomas had
addressed was the ability for Kustom or other camera systems to
have an electronic interface with the radar units manufactured on
the market. Chief Fogarty stated Kustom's cameras had the ability
to interface with Genesis cameras, of which the police department
had several. He also stated the police department had not made a
decision on the purchase of the radar units to go along with the
in-car camera systems.
Chief Fogarty stated he was under the impression that the Genesis
cameras the police department used could be made to integrate
with other brands. He stated there would be a cost to make the~
cameras integrate with the systems. The mayor asked Chief Fogarty
why the radar and the in-car camera systems were bid separately.
Chief Fogarty stated this was done because many of the radar
manufacturers did not make an in-car camera system. The mayor
asked Chief Fogarty if the police department could get a cheaper
price if the items were bid together. Mayor Brainard and Chief
Fogarty discussed the best way to bid the items. Mayor Brainard
moved to table the bid award so the police department could check
on which bidding process would result in the lowest bids. Board
Member Burke seconded. Chief Fogarty stated he would make every
effort to report the department's findings to the board at the
next meeting. The bid award was tabled 2-0.
BOND RELEASES:
Resolution BPW-06-04-97-01 through Resolution BPW-06-04-97-04:
Mayor Brainard moved to approve the bond releases as listed on
the agenda. Board Member Burke seconded. The resolutions were
approved 2-0.
CONTRACTS:
Access Indiana Service Agreement: Communications Director Jim
Kinder explained the agreement was for the T-1 line for the
city's internet access. He stated it was the same line linking
all of Hamilton County and would make Carmel compatible with the
county's GIS system. Mr. Kinder stated it was the cheapest line.
Mayor Brainard moved to approve the agreement. Board Member Burke
seconded. The mayor asked the cost of the line. Mr. Kinder stated
the cost was $1,295 a month. The mayor asked Doug Haney,
assistant city attorney, for an opinion based on Indiana case law
whether this was considered a product or a service. Mr. Haney
stated he had not researched Indiana case law on the issue. Mayor
Brainard moved to table the agreement until the Department of Law
researched whether the line was considered a product or service.
Board Member Burke seconded. The agreement was tabled 2-0.
Ameritech Product Purchase and Maintenance Service Agreement: Mr.
Haney stated Mr. Kinder had received another quotation besides
the one from Ameritech, and that the Department of Law had not
had time to review it. Mr. Haney recommended the board table the
agreement until both quotes could be reviewed and compared.
Mayor Brainard returned the discussion to the just-tabled Access
Indiana Service Agreement and asked Mr. Kinder how many years the
contract would last. Mr. Kinder stated he believed it was a one-
year contract renewable annually. Mayor Brainard asked Mr. Haney
if he or City Attorney Debra Grisham had reviewed the contract.
Mr. Haney said he would take responsibility. The mayor asked Mr.
Haney to take a moment to go over the Access Indiana agreement
because if it wasn't more than the statutory amount the board
could re-vote on it and award it at this meeting.
Mayor Brainard moved to table the Ameritech Product Purchase and
Maintenance Service Agreement. Board Member Burke seconded. The
agreement was tabled 2-0.
In regard to the Access Indiana agreement, Mayor Brainard stated
he was concerned that the penalty for breaking the contract early
could be more than the $50,000 limit for quotes. The contract
remained tabled.

policy would have it completed soon. Mayor Brainard moved to
