RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Board of Directors for both the Southeast Overtown Park West (SEOPW) and Omni
Community Redevelopment Agency's (CRA) approve and adopt the attached Joint Resolution ratifying the
emergency action taken by the Executive Director to hire Circle Security, current office burglar alarm
company, to install a surveillance camera system in the CRA offices at a one time cost of $8,975.00.
JUSTIFICATION:
The CRA offices have had two break-ins in the recent past; the most recent on May 21, 2005. Fortunately,
both resulted only in entry damage, but showed the importance of having the surveillance system installed
as we had when located at the DuPont Plaza Office Building. From the DuPont, we were able to salvage
some of the equipment (cameras and some connectors) which our current burglar alarm company was able
to reinstall with additional new equipment necessary to make a complete package. We now have a system
in place which monitors the accesses and hallways on a 24-hour basis and when the burglar alarm sounds
the camera images are digitally recorded.
FUNDING SOURCE: $8,975.00 from General Operations TIF Account No. 689004.550011.6.610 entitled
"Equipment".
