Title
Redflex Red Light Enforcement Continuation Agreement - Approval
History
In 2008 the Village and Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. entered into a Photo Red Light Enforcement Agreement. Effective December 1, 2015, the agreement was terminated and the cameras with Redflex were turned off and GATSO USA, Inc. became the new provider/servicer of the red light cameras.
Effective December 1, 2015, the Village entered into a continuation of services agreement with Redflex through June 30, 2016 to provide processing, payment, and record request processing for the citations that were issued by Redflex prior to December 1, 2015.
Staff is in the process of transferring any outstanding red light photo citations less than seven (7) years outstanding to the Illinois Debt Recovery Program (Public Act 97-0632).
In order to support this process, the Village is requesting to enter into another continuation agreement with Redflex for the period September 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, with the option to renew up to four (4) additional three (3) month periods at a cost of $750 per month.
On September 6, 2016 this item was reviewed by the Finance Committee, recommended for approval and referred to the Village Board of Trustees for consideration.
Financial Impact
Approximately $643,560 in fines from January 1, 2010 are currently outstanding and will be sent for collection to IDRP. The cost of this continuation agreement will be offset against any revenue collected.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve a Continuation of Services Agreement with Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. for the period September 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, at a rate of $750 per month, with the option to renew up to four (4) additional three (3) month periods.
