RECOMMENDATION

Recommendation

 

That the Council Infrastructure Committee discusses staff’s recommendation to extend the Knightscope Security Robot Subscription for one year.

End

 

SUMMARY

 

Last year, the City engaged Knightscope in a pilot program to provide the K5 security robot to patrol the Watkins parking garage across from City Hall.  The one-year pilot program has now concluded.  Given the positive impact in crime deterrent the robot had during the pilot year, staff recommends extending the contract for an additional year of service.
