RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL
Staff recommends City Council adopt an ordinance amending the FY2021-22 budget in the amount of $15,560 for the purchase of (8) new Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) units.
|
BACKGROUND
The Roseville Police Department is requesting a $15,560 appropriation increase in the Traffic Safety Fund. The funds will be used to purchase (8) Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) ProLaser 4 models used to detect vehicle speed, which offer greater battery life, and new features and display options. Many of the Police Department's current LIDAR units are obsolete, ranging from 5-20 years old. The department no longer has batteries for the oldest LIDAR units and will trade them in for a credit. The credit will be a cost savings to Roseville of $2,000.
|
FISCAL IMPACT
The recommended budget adjustment will increase the budget in the Traffic Safety Fund by $15,560. The total one-time cost for (8) LIDAR Prolaser 4 models is $17,560. The Police Department will exchange old obsolete models for a $2,000 credit towards the purchase. There will be no fiscal impact on the City's General Fund.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, or is otherwise not considered a project as defined by CEQA Statute §21065 and CEQA State Guidelines §15060(c)(3) and §15378. Approval of a budget adjustment for the purchase of LIDAR models meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA. No additional environmental review is required.
