KITTITAS COUNTY <br />SHERIFF'S OFFICE <br />AGENDA STAFF REPORT <br />AGENDA DATE: July 7, 2020 <br />ACTION REQUESTED: Request to Approve the Professional Services Agreement <br />between Camtek Inc. and the Kittitas County Jail to install cameras in the corridor that <br />runs between the jail and courts. <br />BACKGROUND: The corridor that runs between the jail and the courts, which is used <br />to securely transfer inmates between those locations, currently does not have cameras that <br />link into the courthouse's surveillance system. If an emergency were to occur in the <br />corridor, Courthouse Security would not immediately know of the threat or emergency <br />unless they were already present. Jail or court staff would be required to call Courthouse <br />Security on the phone and request them to respond to the area while also monitoring the <br />emergency, taking radio traffic, controlling doors, etc. This project will enhance security <br />by allowing the Courthouse Security Officers to monitor the corridor in the same manner <br />as the rest of the courthouse. <br />INTERACTION: This Proposal was reviewed and approved by the Kittitas County <br />Prosecutor's Office. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Request to Approve the Professional Services Agreement <br />between Camtek Inc. and the Kittitas County Jail to install cameras in the corridor that <br />runs between the jail and courts. <br />HANDLING: Please return 1 signed original to KCSO. <br />LEAD STAFF: Superintendent Panattoni <br />
