SUMMARY: Access to the SPIDR Tech platform will further the Kent Police of Kent. The SPIDR Tech Platform is designed to incorporate relevant data from our Records Management System (RMS) and/or Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system to automatically generate and send customized text and email messages to victims of crime and reporting parties. Subsequently, customers will receive mobile- friendly surveys comprised of questions chosen by our agency that can be utilized to measure community trust and satisfaction. The total cost of the subscription fees over the three-year term is roughly $107,417 ($32,521 per year, plus tax at 10.1%). This subscription has three platform modules: Patrol, Investigations and Insights: · Patrol Module. The module for patrol integrates with our current Computer Aided Dispatch to automatically send text messages to reporting parties after a call for service is generated. These messages are customizable based on updates can automatically be sent to the reporting party if an officer is delayed or diverted from the call keeping them informed. After the call for service is concluded, another text can be sent with the case number, type of incident or crime that had occurred, and the officer who had responded to their call from service. · Investigations Module. The module for investigations will integrate with our current RMS system to automatically generate and send customized texts and email messages to victims of crimes. These messages should also decrease administrative calls to our records and investigative departments by proactively providing the most commonly requested information. Some examples would be notifying the victim of the case number, the name of the Qbdlfu!Qh/!29 6/E responding officer, the name of the detective assigned to the case, next steps in the investigation process, and information for victim resources to name a few. · Insights Module. The insights module are surveys delivered to the reporting party and crime victims via email and/or text message following an interaction with our department. These surveys enable us to benchmark and track community perception, request feedback, and can be used to better serve our community. The funding for this service was originally approved under the 2020 bi-annual budget. BUDGET IMPACT: Requesting funds come out of the Red Light Camera Fund. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL: Innovative Government - Delivering outstanding customer service, developing leaders, and fostering innovation. Evolving Infrastructure - Connecting people and places through strategic investments in physical and technological infrastructure. Inclusive Community - Embracing our diversity and advancing equity through genuine community engagement. ATTACHMENTS: 1. SPIDR Tech Kent PD Proposal (PDF) Qbdlfu!Qh/!2: 6/E/b Lfou!Qpmjdf!Efqbsunfou!!

SUMMARY: This ordinance adopts a new chapter 6.17, setting up a legal framework to allow public service messages; announcements for community events; and announcements for events at city-owned facilities to be displayed on street banners hung across the City rights-of- messaging center signs. In addition, these types of messages as well as art may be displayed upon pole banners on City-owned streetlights. This city-owned infrastructure is not a public forum, but rather a limited public forum. As such, these facilities may only be used for the particular purposes described in this ordinance. Specifically, street banners, pole banners, and electronic messaging center signs may only be used to display promotions for community events located in the City and sponsored by the City and/or a Kent- based nonprofit organization; promotions for tenants or events at a city-owned facility; and public service messages. Public service messages are those displayed by a governmental agency intended to protect and regulate the public health and safety or to convey information or news of interest to the general public. Any street or pole banners hung across the right-of-way or on streetlights must also meet specified technical requirements and must be installed by City staff. This helps ensure that the banners are professionally produced, meet safety standards, and do not create any confusion with traffic signals or signs. The Public Works Director, Street Manager and Communications Manager will all be involved in the approval of street and poles banners and the messaging on these banners and on the electronic messaging center sign. BUDGET IMPACT: None. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL: Qbdlfu!Qh/!51 6/F Thriving City - Creating safe neighborhoods, healthy people, vibrant commercial districts, and inviting parks and recreation.
