Request the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-179 authorizing the Information Systems Department
to purchase 120 replacement laptops and required accessories for the Police Department and approve
the budget adjustment needed to complete the purchase. The replacement aligns with the expected
lifecycle of the existing hardware, and the new laptops meet the specifications required for officers to
connect to the City’s new Computer Aided Dispatch (“CAD”) system.
