Here are the minutes provided by the board:

BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT: Anderson, Gault, Landi, Meyers, Ramsey (Zoom), Seiver, VanKlaveren

BOARD MEMBERS ABSENT: Beswick

OTHERS PRESENT: Darren Hart & Curt Champion, Rock Island Sheriff’s Office (Zoom); Matt Franks & Jamie Morris, Rock Island Police Department; Summer O’Leary, Moline Police Department (Zoom); Chris Johnson, Milan Police Department; Terry McMaster (Zoom), Scott Ryckeghem & Margo Sparbel, QComm; John Kelly, Ottosen & Dinolfo; Rich Schipper, Brian Nelson (Zoom) & Stacy DePorter, Bi-State Regional Commission

1. Consideration of Approval of the CentralSquare Contract Amendment. Seiver announced a quorum at 8:01 a.m. for a special meeting to discuss the CS proposed amendment. Seiver advised that a lot of work has been done by the committees regarding our contract with CS. Seiver distributed a contract amendment to the original contract with CS. John Kelly stated that this amendment would prevail over the original contract, but we could take no further action on the items that are deemed closed. Seiver and Nelson discussed Exhibit A of Amendment Number 1 that outlined the Task Completion Report. They also presented the proposed Financial Agreement that included a total void of current OneSolution invoices totaling $256,278.80 and future OneSolution invoices totaling $37,499.97. CS agreed to defer payment on the Offender Watch and offered $130,925.00 in service credits, including a $50,000.00 one-time credit that can be applied to future services. CentralSquare also requested that six outstanding invoices for ProSuite be remitted for payment no later than March 31, 2023. Gault expressed concern that the Amendment does not hold them accountable for anything that has not been delivered yet. Kelly stressed that the Amendment does not provide any future due dates, but the Amendment only provides a clean slate going back. The Amendment does not prevent us from legal recourse moving forward. Kelly also stated that from a legal perspective, he believes CS has taken the necessary action to remove our ability to move forward legally, and that it is a good settlement. Nelson agreed with Kelly and added that we have their attention, and we finally have good ground to stand on with the ProSuite product. Seiver commended the committees and in particular Summer, Tammy, and Stacy H. as they were instrumental in discussions with CS. Landi moved that the Board grant the authority for Chairman Seiver to move into the Amended Contract with CentralSquare. VanKlaveren seconded, and the motion was approved unanimously via roll call vote.

2. Consideration of Approval of Payment to CentralSquare Pursuant to the Terms Outlined in the Contract as Amended. VanKlaveren moved that the Board approve payment of the outstanding balance of ProSuite in the amount of $501,275.20 once the contract is fully executed. Landi seconded, and the motion was approved unanimously via roll call vote.

3. Adjournment. The meeting adjourned at 8:37 a.m. The next monthly meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, April 4, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. at the Rock Island Police Department.
