DEPT. 21,834 01/27/15 POLICE AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF THE AGREEMENT FOR PARTICIPATION IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY'S CALIFORNIA IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM REMOTE ACCESS NETWORK DEPT. DIRECTOR CITY ATTY. CITY MGR. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 2015-017 authorizing the City Manager to execute the Agreement for Participation in San Diego County's California Identification System Remote Access Network, a statewide network of equipment and procedures allowing local law enforcement agencies direct access to the California Identification System and Cal-Photo (CAL-ID), the automated system for retaining and identifying fingerprints, palm prints, and photos. ITEM EXPLANATION: The State of California Department of Justice maintains an automated system for retaining and identifying fingerprints, palm prints, and photos, known as CAL-ID. California Penal Code, Section 11112.1, provides for the establishment of a Remote Access Network (RAN) which allows local law enforcement agencies direct access to CAL-ID. The San Diego Sheriff's Department is the proprietary agency for San Diego County's access to CAL-ID/RAN. The City of Carlsbad Police Department desires to participate in CAL- ID/RAN. The indemnity section of the agreement states the County of San Diego (County) is not liable for any claims arising out ofthe city's (and other law enforcement agencies) participation in this agreement. Further, the city and other participating law enforcement agencies, subject to the agreement, are required to indemnify the County and its contractors for all claims, either directly or indirectly, arising out of or related to the performance of agreement. This indemnity provision is very one-sided to the sole benefit of the County of San Diego. City staff tried to negotiate a mutual indemnity provision with the County, but the County refused to modify its indemnity language. Notwithstanding, the CAL-ID/RAN system is important to the city and its Police Department. Staff believes the risks for claims and indemnification are low and that the benefit outweighs the risk associated with the County's broad indemnification provision. If a demand for indemnity arises, the city will assert it is only liable for damages caused by city's act or omission in its use ofthe system. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost of CAL-ID/RAN ($716,000) is shared among all San Diego County law enforcement agencies. The cost is allocated by percentage ofthe county population and percentage ofthe county total number of index crimes. Carlsbad has 3.47% ofthe county's population and 2.91% ofthe county's index crime. The mean of those two percentages, 3.19%, is Carlsbad's share ofthe total cost: $22,870. The city's share will be paid from the Fiscal Year 2014-15 General Fund budget and no additional appropriation is needed.
