CITY COMMISSION AGENDA | OCTOBER 28, 2024 REGULAR MEETING
TITLE
Purchase Axon Taser 10 Less than Lethal Devices for the Police Department
SUMMARY
Since 2009, the police department has solely utilized Taser's X26 and Taser's X2
models of conducted electrical weapons as a less-than-lethal option for incidents
requiring defensive action. In 2014, the police department transitioned from the X26
to the X2 Taser. The current X2 Tasers are currently out of service life, out of warranty,
and non-replaceable. The Taser 10s are Axon Enterprise Inc.'s latest replacement
model and recommended for transition. Taser 10 works in combination with our
current body-worn cameras and digital evidence management system. This purchase
includes all of the transition training needs, training cartridges, operational cartridges,
and access to our digital evidence repository for the life of the device.
FUNDING SOURCE
Funding for these devices come from the approved FY25 General Budget utilizing line
codes 001-21-2130-560640 & 001-21-2130-550525.

Staff recommends commission to approve the purchase of budgeted item, 61-Taser
10's, quote Q-559570-45471.669GM with a total purchase price of $281,538.40, or
$56,307.68 per year for a period of 5 years, from Axon Enterprise, Inc as a less than
lethal defensive action option for sworn police staff.
