December sales collected in February were 12% over last year of the same time period. He stated
that the expenditures were a little under 50% and the capital portion of the expenses were at
approximately 70% which was due to vehicle purchases further leaving the remaining funds for
equipment purchases.
In regards to the investment report, Mr. Nickerson stated that the CCPD portfolio has a little
under $257,000, with an interest earning of .3 %.
During further discussion, there was an inquiry as to what was the expense of $6,093 listed in the
services line item for. In response to the inquiry, Mr. Nickerson stated that the expense amount
was for a variety of items.
Director Wardford inquired of the status on funding the body cameras. In response to Director
Wardford's inquiry, Chief Dougherty stated that a grant was obtained to provide body cameras to
all of the police officers; therefore, the funds budgeted for the body cameras was used for the
matching fund amount for that grant. In preparation for implementing the body cameras
throughout the entire police department, Chief Dougherty stated that a policy is in place, the
system that's being considered for redaction integrates with the police departments' current
Coban system, and that the size of the server has been increased. Additionally, he stated that
although there is some redaction software available for the body cameras, they're not as adequate
as need be; therefore only a few of the body cameras are active. General Manager Davis stated
that along with the software, personnel are also being addressed as they both are essential to the
process of having the body cameras for public information requests purposes.
