City Council is considering the proposed 10-year contract for city police to buy and upgrade body and vehicle cameras, Tasers and related equipment and software through a single vendor.
Pittsburgh City Council is considering a proposed $45 million, 10-year contract for city police to buy and upgrade body and vehicle cameras, Tasers and related equipment and software.
The equipment is “absolutely essential for our officer safety for our organizational accountability,” Scirotto said. Under the proposed contract, cameras and Tasers would be replaced on a rolling basis every 36 months unless there are upgrades, at which point police would get the latest equipment when it’s available. In addition to the cameras, the contract would provide Tasers and additional cartridges for them as needed. The in-vehicle cameras would be replaced immediately to switch out the equipment from the current vendor.
The proposed contract also would cover 165 vehicles, Pawlak said, though the city now has fewer than that. Council members acknowledged the need for the equipment, but voiced concerns about the cost and duration of the proposed contract.
