LTC 106-2018 Public Safety CCTV and License Plate Reader Update/01AMIBEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER NO. LTC# 106-2018 LETTER TO COMMISSION TO: Mayor Dan Gelber and Member FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manage DATE: February 26, 2018 SUBJECT: Public 5atety CC I V and License Plate Reader Update This Letter to Commission is prepared to update the Mayor and the City Commission on the status of the City's public safety CCTV system and License Plate Reader (LPR) initiative. In 2014 the Police Department began deploying temporary cameras in the Entertainment District in order to provide situational awareness during high -impact periods. The great effectiveness of the cameras in assisting in crime fighting and managing resources drove the Department toward more widespread implementation of permanent cameras throughout Ocean Drive, the Entertainment District and other areas of the City. The Police Department now routinely relies on this technology to assist with traffic mitigation, crowd control and crime prevention. In addition, the cameras have assisted detectives in nearly every major criminal investigation occurring within the Entertainment District in the past three years. In short, the Police Department considers this technology — and its expansion — a top priority for public safety. The Police Department has also come to rely greatly on LPR technology. The Department has 10 patrol cars mounted with mobile LPRs. There are four sites in the city with fixed LPRs that read passing cars. The Department has one LPR mobile trailer it can deploy and relocate as needed. Up until recently, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) had opposed LPR placement on its rights of way. This issue now appears to have been resolved, and the Police Department is expected to expand fixed LPR deployment to some of the most critical points of entry and exit to the City in the coming months. The implementation of this camera and LPR technology was made possible by repurposing the backbone infrastructure (wireless backhaul) of the legacy citywide WI -FI system that was set to be decommissioned. To be useful, the images and data collected from these devices must move quickly and completely. So as the Department's planned expansion of this technology occurs, upgrades to this backbone infrastructure will be required. As of this writing, there are 16 cameras along Ocean Drive / Lummus Park providing 80 video streams as well as 20 cameras in various parts of the City that facilitate traffic management. There are an additional four locations with fixed LPRs with an additional five new locations set to come online in the next 90 Days. The Miami Beach Police Department has plans to acquire two additional portable speed/radar trailers equipped with LPRs. All of these immediate plans for expansion of LPR and camera technology are funded with FY 2017-2018 money, and the Department is hopeful it will accomplish them by the end of the fiscal year. In February 2017, Commissioner Rosen Gonzalez requested that the administration explore the possibility of adding additional cameras along the Beachwalk and on every corner of the Entertainment District. Following a cost analysis by staff, it was determined that the camera -on -every -corner project should best be broken down into three phases: 1) Ocean Drive/Lummus Park and Beachwalk to 17th Street; 2) Collins Ave; and 3) Washington Ave. These three items alone will cost $750,000 to $950,000. Ocean Drive/ Lummus Park and the Beachwalk to 17th Street were identified as the top priorities and were therefore funded in the current fiscal year FY17/18. There are various challenges to deploying cameras in the public right of way. The main obstacles are securing 24-hour power and connectivity to transmit the data back to recording/viewing servers. The additional cameras will exponentially increase the amount of bandwidth required for effective deployment. The Police Department is in the process of securing a fiber optic backhaul through Lummus Park with final termination at Police Headquarters. This backhaul will serve as the first leg of city -owned fiber in order to achieve the increased bandwidth necessary for high-definition cameras. Moving forward, the Police Department is preparing a comprehensive plan for additional cameras and LPRs to be deployed over time. The very rough early estimate to complete a grand vision for comprehensive citywide use of this technology is that $8 million will be needed over the next 5 years. This plan will encompass cameras throughout the remainder of the Entertainment District, the Beachwalk/Boardwalk from 17th Street to 87th Terrace, the 41 Street Business District, the North Beach / 71 Street Business District, the Alton Road Business District and areas surrounding the Convention Center. The vision also includes further deployment of LPRs throughout the city in order to maximize coverage. The intent is to, wherever possible, leverage existing traffic signal infrastructure, provided we can reach agreement with Miami Dade Transit. Attached as background is a June 30, 2017 memorandum from the Neighborhood and Community Affairs Committee that provides details on the camera -on -every corner proposal and some of the challenges the City faces in implementation. C:JLM/DJO/ OLD BUSINESS 4. MIAMI BEACH COMMITTEE MEMORANDUM TO: Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee Members FROM: Jimmy L. Morales, City Manager DATE: June 30, 2017 SUBJECT: DISCUSSION TO EXPLORE PLACING CAMERAS ON EVERY CORNER OF THE MXE (MIXED USE ENTERTAINMENT) DISTRICT AND ON THE BEACHWALK, AND INSTALLING EMERGENCY ACTIVATION BOXES ALONG THE BEACHWALK KEY INTENDED OUTCOME: Enhance Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness HISTORY: At the March 1, 2017 Commission meeting this item was dual referred to the Neighborhood/Community Affairs Committee and the Finance & Citywide Projects Committee. In response to the Commission's direction, and in order to provide both Committees with an update on progress, this memorandum summarizes the key issues, activities to date, future challenges and approximate costs. While the title of the referral from the Commission includes the installation of Emergency Activation Boxes, implementation of such boxes will require a completely different survey and plan, and work has therefore not yet commenced on this aspect. ANALYSIS: The City of Miami Beach currently has a camera system consisting of 42 cameras. They are a highly effective tool in preventing, responding to, and investigating crimes. They are invaluable in providing an overview of traffic flow and also the monitoring of crowds during peak periods and special events e.g. Memorial Day Weekend. The Miami Beach Police Department (MBPD) conducted several site surveys to establish the existing infrastructure pertinent to the camera requirements, and to identify additional requirements to establish the wider camera coverage required i.e. `cameras on every corner of the MXE District and on the beachwalk'. As a result of the site surveys a preliminary plan was drawn up. Attachment `A' is a complete map of the MXE District with existing and proposed cameras. The plan is broken down into three areas as shown below. Each of these has different challenges in terms of the power supply and existing infrastructure. Ocean Drive / Lummus Park / Seawall (Attachment `B') The MBPD is currently in the process of revamping the Ocean Drive deployment of cameras — this is Phase 2 of the initial camera deployment. The older cameras are being replaced with newer cameras which will provide more extensive views and a greater coverage area. The older cameras will not be withdrawn from service but will be relocated to other locations that require cameras for traffic flow coverage. The poles along the east side of Ocean Drive already have receptacles on them for holiday lighting— this Page 29 of 54 provides power for cameras. However, the rest of the poles around Lummus Park and the Seawall area do not have this type of power infrastructure built in. The plan therefore includes this. The Public Works Department currently has plans to upgrade all of the black decorative poles within Lummus Park for new poles which will have some additional lighting control features. The diagram of the new devices is included as Attachment `C'. A cost assessment will be done to add power receptacles and the provision of continuous power - these are essential to enable the operation of the proposed cameras. There are currently two white test poles at 9t' Street and Lummus Park which have proved to be highly effective. There is also a backhaul point at the same location which the Parks Department and Public Works Department are working with Florida Power and Light (FPL) to get power restored to. Collins Avenue (Attachment `D') The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has changed most of the poles from 6th Street to 15th Street, and almost all of them have continuous power. The Public Works Department will be assisting with the poles on 5th Street and 16th Street north. Most of the intersections in the relevant section of Collins Avenue do not however have multiple street lights and, as such, only one camera can be used at each intersection as opposed to the target of two. Washington Avenue (Attachment `E') This is probably by far the most complex corridor to deploy cameras to. Every pole from 5th Street to 16th Street is a decretive pole, does not have continuous power, the power voltage is 480v and they do not have receptacles. This will therefore require a great deal of work by the Public Works Department. Spun aluminum poles are located in the center median and act as access points to backhaul the data. However, the center median is not a good location for the cameras as the median is surrounded by palm trees and the poles are primarily 50-100 feet away from the intersections. The height of the current decorative poles on the sidewalks was also noted as an issue of concern as they are only as tall as Miami -Dade transit buses, and shorter than the double decker tour buses and semi -tractor trailers — this would create intermittent disruption to the data signal. This issue is addressed in the preliminary design of the project but a mock test should be conducted prior to full scale deployment. Each camera costs between $5,000 and $6,000. This amount includes not just the camera, but also required ancillaries such as antennas, brackets, software licenses and other similar items. However, the hardware and basic installation are the least expensive part of the process. It is the infrastructure required to utilize the cameras, and to transfer the data provided by them, that represents the biggest challenge in terms of cost and execution. Of particular note is that, as the system expands, so does the requirement for the transfer of data. The transfer of data over radio waves will effectively multiply by a factor of 10 - the current system will simply not be able to cope with the increase. In addition, and as documented in the area breakdown above, each area has different requirements due to the existing infrastructure in them. It is therefore not possible to give an accurate estimate of total costs at the current time. The additional 62 cameras will cost approximately $350,000. The supporting infrastructure cost will range from approximately $200,000 (expansion of the current radio wave system) to $6 million (installation of fiber optic cables). The latter option would be by far best in terms of service but is substantially more. The cost of the expansion in its totality will therefore range from $550,000 to over $6 million. CONCLUSION: The expansion of the camera system in the MXE District will significantly enhance the security and safety of the area, however, this enhancement will come at a substantial financial cost.
