BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
C.60) adding new products to the list of available EHD systems.
Due to the increase in the number of inmates participating in the Electronic Home Detention
Program, the Sheriff-Coroner is requesting a third amendment increasing the payment limit
by $191,000 to a new payment limit of $533,600. In addition the proposed amendment
would add the HomeGuard Digital Cell Unit (HG206) to the EHD systems available to the
department through this contract. Currently, a land-line must be used in conjunction with
EHD equipment; however, increased use of cellular phones has resulted in the need for more
contemporary EHD systems. The equipment described above will allow the department
more flexibility in EHD monitoring options. Two spare units will be provided at no charge.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Negative action will result in the Sheriff’s Office having to put inmates on active global
positioning system monitoring at a higher unit cost or keep inmates in physical custody at a
substantial County expense.
