From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, the Police Department requested replacement of 65 portable radios. Chief Kevin Lennon said the current units are 8 to 10 years old, out of warranty, and nearing obsolescence, and that the replacements should add location tracking, messaging, and body camera integration. Motorola provided quotes for outright purchase and lease-to-own options, and the town administrator recommended a five-year lease with $116,000 in FY2028 funding.
This is a clear renewal and replacement signal tied to a named incumbent vendor.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
