From the meeting
At its October 14, 2026 committee meeting, the city advanced a 5-year Drone as First Responder program for the police department. The resolution waived competitive bidding and set a sole-source agreement with Motorola Solutions, Inc. for the BRINC Takeoff Program, with a first year free and later years at $79,999 each.
The city linked the system to St. Clair County ETSB and Geo-Comm 9-1-1 mapping integration, so follow-on implementation and support work are in play.
