I. AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE A NEW RECORDING SOLUTION
THROUGH GOSERCO, INCORPORATED IN THE AMOUNT OF $43,660.07
The San Gabriel Police Department is currently using Verint for its phone and
radio recording solutions. The program and hardware are outdated and no
longer have support for the 24-hour, 365-day-a-year operation required. The
current voice recorder was purchased in 2016 and records all radio
communications for the Department’s public safety radio and telephone
conversations, including 911 lines. Because of how critical this tool is to public
safety, the Department relies on products that have high reliability,
functionality, durability, longevity, and immediate tech support. Funds for the
voice recorder are currently budgeted in the Police Department’s special
projects account #124-751-15-99-270, with a current allocation of $50,000.
Since the anticipated cost is below what is budgeted, there will be cost savings
to the General Fund.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: Not a project as
defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to purchase
the hardware and software system through Goserco, Incorporated for the Police
Department’s communication center. |

E. AUTHORIZATION FOR EARLY PAYOFF OF HOLMAN CAPITAL LOAN
In August 2020, the City Council authorized a $636,000, 2.9% interest, Master
Equipment Lease-Purchase Agreement (Loan) with Holman Capital Corporation
that finances essential vehicles for the Police, Fire, and Public Works
Departments. As of August 24, 2025, the remaining payoff balance is
$117,186.75. The primary purpose of the early payoff is to be able to trade-in
police vehicles for value that are no longer in service. The Loan is scheduled to
be paid off in August of 2026. To complete a trade-in or resale, the City must
first obtain clear titles through early payoff of the loan. The payment will have
no impact on the General Fund, and since the payment is from the Fleet Services
Fund, which has sufficient funds, no additional appropriation is required.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: Not a Project as
defined in Section 15378(b)(4) of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize early payoff of the San Gabriel
Police Vehicle Loan (Loan No. 500238001) in the approximate amount of
$117,186.75, subject to final confirmation from the bank holding the debt. |
