9L. LEASE AGREEMENT WITH WIRELESS CCTV, LLC FOR LEASE OF CAMERA\nTRAILERS AS PART OF THE SAFE STREETS TOGETHER CAMPAIGN UTILIZING\nCOOPERATIVE PURCHASING\nThe City is launching its Safe Streets Together: United Against Exploitation campaign in\nJuly 2024. One of the impact areas the campaign will focus on is reducing the demand\nfor prostitution and the illegal sale of sex, through the implementation of various\nstrategies. Cameras can decrease the demand for prostitution and human trafficking by\nincreasing the risk of detection and arrest for buyers of illegal sex. The presence of\ncameras provides heightened surveillance and accountability, discouraging individuals\nfrom engaging in or facilitating prostitution and human trafficking. Staff is requesting\nauthorization to lease two solar camera trailers to support the demand reduction\nobjectives utilizing cooperative purchasing and the City of Palmdale’s contract.\nRECOMMENDED ACTION:\n1. City Council find that this item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act\n(“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5)(Organizational or administrative activities\nof governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the\nenvironment); and\n2.
