Mayor Donchess

Yes.
Alderman Klee

Thank you. So if | heard you right, you said that you have to bring in consultants, and hire contractors, and so
on to come in when you have to do certain investigations could take a couple of days. So the money that you
would save off of that would equal and take care of this. So you have that already budgeted. Is that correct?
So you may not actually need any more money because you're not going to be using those services? Do |
understand that correctly?

unique the dialect may be, and those are extremely costly. The benefit of this is once we sign the contract, we
are under no obligation to use it moving forward. Meaning if six months from now we can't use it, then there's
no more service charges. We can end the contract or it can just sit in limbo until we have the funding for it.

Alderman Klee

May | follow up?

Mayor Donchess

Yes.

per minute. The lowball number | was told we got was about $32,000. We are hoping to use this more, and
more, and more for - we're hoping to use this every day to fully communicate with the community. So we're
hoping if we get our maximum ask for the grant that would be much higher than the 30,000. Like | said,
Governor, I'm sorry, Senator Shaheen’s office they were very excited about this idea.

Mayor Donchess

All right, Alderman Harriott-Gathright.

Jim Testaverde, Deputy Police Chief

Yes Ma’am. | apologize. You're absolutely correct. The $2,500 is the initial cost to do the unlimited service
and the other $1,000 that we're asking to be appropriated is to actually start to use the translation while we
wait to see if we get the grant.

Alderman Harriot-Gathright

Okay.

| believe those are two separate Memos so if I'm not correct. Yes, they were two separate items. The lighting
is a separate item from the purchase of the vehicles.

Brian Sojka, Fleet Maintenance Manager
Correct.

Mayor Donchess

Yeah | don’t know if you have the agenda but we’re just on the $83,000 purchase at this point. All right any
other comments or questions? Alderwoman Kelly.
