PURSUANT TO, AND AS AUTHORIZED BY, THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION UNDER RESOLUTION NO. 2015-29018. ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION An extension of the current Agreement through September 10, 2015 is approved. HISTORY/ BACKGROUND In April 2010, the City of Miami Beach entered into a five (5) year Agreement with Xerox State and Local Solutions, Inc. to begin a photo red light (PRL) ticket enforcement program. The Agreement authorized the City to extend its duration for up to two (2) additional, two-year terms. The intent of the PRL program is to improve public safety by reducing motor vehicle crashes at traffic signal intersections by holding red-light offenders accountable for their violations. The Miami Beach Police Department currently manages the program and monitors ten (10) cameras in nine (9) different intersections throughout the city. The City of Miami Beach's contract with Xerox was set to expire in May 2015. On April 8, 2015, the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee held a discussion relative to the viability of the PRL program, and addressed potential modifications to the Agreement that would better protect the interests of the City. The Committee made several essential recommendations and identified further amendments to the Agreement that must be encapsulated with an amendment to the Agreement for the first renewal term. These were: at a minimum, a provision Commission Memorandum Red light cameras July 8, 2015 Page 2 of 2 for five (5) additional red light cameras at designated intersections within the City; g 9 Y; relocation and upgrade of certain existing designated intersection cameras; and P g 9 9 the full indemnity, holding harmless and defense of the City by Xerox for pending and future litigation. The Mayor and City Commission expressly granted the Administration and the City Attorney's Office the authority to negotiate the first two-year renewal term as approved in Resolution No. 2015-29018. These negotiations were not able to be finalized by July 8, 2015, however it is anticipated that the negotiations will be completed by September 10, 2015. FISCAL IMPACT: Since the program's initial investment, revenue has surpassed expenditure. When all factors are included, a surplus of $189,000 is projected for FY 15/16. It is estimated that if the proposed five (5) additional cameras are added, the surplus above expenses for the PRL program would increase to $355,000 annually. The fiscal impact of approval of the Resolution extending the current Agreement through September 10, 2015 would be a net income of $33,000. JLM/D O/ 1N
