Agreements necessary for the continued administration of the red light camera program: FILE NUMBER: e Month-to-month agreement between the City of West Chicago and RedSpeed Illinois, LLC COMMITTEE AGENDA DATE: April 26, 2021 e Agreement with the Illinois Secretary of State COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: TBD STAFF REVIEW: Christopher Shackelford, Interim Chief SIGNATURE APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman ; SIGNATURE ITEM SUMMARY: The existing contract between the City of West Chicago and RedSpeed Illinois, LLC (“RedSpeed”) expired on February 6, 2021. Due to uncertainty of the impact of pending legislation on red light camera programs in the State, a month-to-month agreement to continue services per existing terms is recommended at this time. Once the pending legislation is settled, the impact, if any, can be factored into a new contract with RedSpeed. Additionally, the Illinois Secretary of State (“SOS”) mandates that every two years an agreement be signed between the City of West Chicago, RedSpeed and the SOS. This agreement contains terms and restrictions on the use of the data that RedSpeed purchases from the SOS needed to administer the City’s red light camera program. Please see the attached agreements, one with RedSpeed and one with the SOS, for complete details. ACTIONS PROPOSED: Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 21-R-0028. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: ===== PDF PAGE 5 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] RedSpeed® Illinois April 19, 2021 Mayor Ruben Pineda CITY OF WEST CHICAGO 475 Main Street West Chicago, IL 60185 Dear Mayor Pineda: The 6-year contract extension agreement between RedSpeed Illinois LLC (“RedSpeed”) and the City of West Chicago (“City”) dated February 6, 2015 expired on February 6, 2021. Given the current anti-redlight legislation under consideration, RedSpeed proposes continuing service of your account on the same financial basis as it presently exists with all terms of the Agreement remaining in place, on a month-to-month basis, terminable upon 60 days written notice. Once the impact, if any, of this legislation is known, we can certainly discuss executing a new agreement with a duration agreeable to the City. In summary, the existing (but expired) extension Agreement would be modified such that effective on the date this letter is fully executed the term will continue on a month-to-month basis, terminable upon 60 days written notice, with all other terms and provisions remaining valid and binding upon both RedSpeed and the City.
