Contract AwardInformation TechnologyDetected Jul 2, 2026

St. Clair County’s Sheriff’s Office and Central Dispatch seek approval of a new CLEMIS Authority participation agreement for October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. Since 2015 they have contracted with Oakland County for records management, CAD, and data sharing, but those services have shifted to the standalone Courts and Law Enforcement Management Information System (CLEMIS) Authority, requiring a new agreement to continue use of the system.The item notes an annual cost increase of about $3,700 across the two departments, which their existing budgets can absorb. Attached quotes show planned FY27 services including CLEMIS membership for 84 sworn FTEs, MDC wireless, CAD primary connectivity, 24x7 site monitoring, CAD backup wireless, and a LEADS Online subscription for the Sheriff, plus PSAP Central Dispatch membership for 193 FTEs. This confirms CLEMIS as the incumbent CAD/RMS platform and LEADS Online as the investigative data service, signaling ongoing subscription spend and potential future needs such as integration, training, analytics, network resilience, and related IT or public safety technology enhancements around this core stack.

New participation agreement is effectively a continuation/transition of incumbent CAD/RMS and data-sharing services from Oakland County to the CLEMIS Authority, with minor cost increase and defined service bundle for FY27.

Public Updates

EOHLC PHN 2026-8 announced mandatory data reporting. The agenda item does not describe a purchase, but it does signal compliance work that can drive software, reporting, or integration needs. The relevant next conversation would be around how the housing authority will meet the new reporting requirements.

Pre-RFP

The agenda included consideration of a 24/7 Telcom broadband partnership at the August 19, 2026 meeting. The item suggests the town is evaluating a broadband or telecommunications arrangement, but the document does not say a deal was already signed. That makes it a useful pre-decision signal for service scope, network needs, and possible implementation timing.

The remote instruction plan says grades K-2 will use Seesaw and grades 3-12 will use Google Classroom. It also describes device checkout, internet access support, and offline alternatives for students who cannot use digital tools. Those platforms are already selected and in use, so this is follow-on implementation and support intelligence rather than an open bid. It ties directly to emergency closure continuity.
