CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

Frank Boyles, City Manage ~
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING A JOINT POWERS
AGREEMENT WITH THE STATE OF MINNESOTA FOR THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE DATA NETWORK (CJDN) PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE
MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME.
DISCUSSION: History: The Prior Lake Police Department is connected via high-speed data
lines with Scott County and the State of Minnesota Bureau of Criminal
Apprehension. The data lines are used to allow law enforcement agencies high-
speed computer access, sharing and updating of information critical to the
conduct of day-to-day responsibilities.
Current Circumstances: The State of Minnesota is in the process of upgrading
its computer data network and is encouraging local units of government to utilize
this service. Through the Criminal Justice Data Network (CJDN) Project, the
State is asking local units of government to participate in a joint powers
agreement. Parties to the joint powers agreement are authorized to connect to
the Criminal Justice Data Network using high-speed T1 data lines and routing
devices. Because of the joint powers agreement, the equipment used between
a'gencies is compatible and because of the number of agencies involved, the cost
is economical.
Conclusion: The Council should determine whether it wishes to become a
member of the Criminal Justice Data Network by adoption of the attached joint
powers agreement.
ISSUES:
Information sharing between criminal justice agencies has become a key variable
in the prevention and solution of crimes and the protection of individuals. The
proposed Criminal Justice Data Network will facilitate on-going communication
between law enforcement agencies statewide.
The joint powers agreement is also beneficial to the City financially. The City
presently pays for a T1 line to the County at $539.27 per month. as well as a
$90.00 per month fee to the State for computer connection and operation. With
this agreement, the State will assume the T1 line cost leaving only the operation
and connection monthly charge.
ALTERNATIVES: (1) Adopt the five-year Criminal Justice Data Network Joint Powers Agreement
by resolution.
(2) Take no action.

Lake, Prior Lake Police Department, (hereinafter referred to as GOVERNMENTAL UNIT) witness that:
WHEREAS, the STATE, pursuant to Minnesota Statute, Chapter 299C.46, Subdivision 1 is authorized to lease or
purchase facilities and equipment as may be necessary to establish and maintain the data communications network
with criminal justice agencies, and
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statute, Chapter 299C. 46, Subdivision 2 defines criminal justice agencies allowed to connect
to the criminal justice data communications network, and
WHEREAS, the STATE, pursuant to Laws of Minnesota for 1999, Chapter 216, Article 1, Section 7, Subdivision 3 is
appropriated funds for the statewide criminal and juvenile justice data information system upgrade; and
WHEREAS, the STATE, pursuant to Laws of Minnesota for 2000, Chapter 311, Article 1, Section 3 is appropriated
funds for criminal justice technology infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes, Section 471.59, Subdivision 10 authorizes both the STATE and the
GOVERNMENTAL UNIT to enter into joint powers agreements, and,
WHEREAS, the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT represents that it meets all requirements for this Agreement as a
criminal justice agency, or is a city, county, or political subdivision participating on criminal justice
communications network authorized to accept network services from the STATE for the purpose specified
herein, and
WHEREAS, the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT represents that it is duly qualified and willing to perform and carry out the
services and tasks described in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed:
I. SERVICE OPTIONS Criminal justice agencies may select either option A or B below. Cities, counties, or
political subdivisions may only select option A. Service option checked below applies to this AQreement:
A. ---1L- The STATE's base installation is a T1 access circuit, a defined level of backbone
bandwidth, and supported telecommunication equipment which includes (modem, DSU/CSU,
and router).
The total cost of the network connection will be computed based on the combined requirements of the
STATE and the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT for backbone bandwidth, supported telecommunication
equipment with appropriate ports, access circuit, and installation. The STATE will pay what they would
have paid for the base installation, as specified in Clause II of this agreement, and the
GOVERNMENTAL UNIT through a service agreement with the Minnesota Department of Administration
Intertechnologies Group (ITG) will pay the difference. This will include an additional PVC or an increase
in the base bandwidth, an appropriate level of Community Router Service, and may include an additional
router port.
CJDN traffic will have priority routing. Either party to this Agreement can expand their bandwidth within
the available bandwidth, but if a conflict in bandwidth needs occurs, then the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT
will order another access circuit from ITG for their use at the prevailing rates. The same
telecommunications equipment can be used.
PAGE 1 of 4
OR
B. GOVERNMENTAL UNITS wants to utilize available CJDN bandwidth.
If the expected bandwidth requirements by the GOVERMENTAL UNIT are low, the GOVERNMENTAL
UNIT can utilize some of the available bandwidth within the planned network. The GOVERNMENTAL
UNIT must obtain the STATE's approval in advance for each type of service that they want to use. The
only cost of this option to the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT will be for an additional router port, if it were
needed in order to segregate the CJDN traffic and establish the required separate segment.
CJDN traffic will have priority routing and if the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT experiences bandwidth congestion
(response time), then the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT can acquire additional bandwidth, if available, on the
existing circuit or the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT can acquire another circuit connection through InterTech.
The same installed router can still be used.
II. STATE'S RESPONSIBILITIES
A. The STATE shall, by the nature of the location of the GOVERNMENTAL UNITS that it serves,
cause the Minnesota Network (MNet) to be extended to more locations throughout the state. This
provides an opportunity for GOVERNMENTAL UNITS to partner with the STATE and ITG to more
fully utilize the planned network connections and increase connectivity between public sector
organizations.
B. Wherever feasible, the STATE shall use current MNet digital network connections to connect to
participating agencies for the purposes of criminal justice access. If a GOVERNMENTAL UNIT
does not have a current MNet connection or it is inadequate for the application, the Criminal Justice
Data Communications Network (CJDN) Upgrade Project will bring routed connectivity to that site.
C. The STATE, through lTG, will coordinate and pay the telephone company for the initial inside
(premium) wiring service at the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT's site, not to exceed $200.00. This
cost is limited to the wiring from the Main Point of Presence (MPOP) in the facility to the STATE
provided router, unless otherwise specified within this agreement.
D. The STATE, through lTG, will determine the bandwidth requirement for the CJDN applications at
each site and will coordinate and pay the telephone company for the initial installation of the circuit
required to support that bandwidth.
E. The STATE, through lTG, will coordinate and pay the telephone company for the initial installation
and monthly cost of the circuit located at the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT's site.
F. The STATE, through lTG, will coordinate and pay for the initial activation, support, and maintenance
of one router port on the MNet router located at the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT's site. If an additional
port is required, the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT will be required to pick up the monthly charge. Access
Control Lists (ACL) for the connection to the STATE will be maintained by ITG with the approval of
the STATE.
G. The ITG will ensure that a separate, and dedicated, modem line is installed at the
GOVERNMENTAL UNIT's site for the express purpose of monitoring the ITG owned and
maintained MNet router.
H. The STATE, through lTG, will maintain the Access Control Lists (ACL) on the MNet routers for
connection to the STATE for the purpose of gaining access to criminal justice information.
I. The ITG will bill the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT its appropriate share of the costs depending on
service options and/or service agreements entered into between the GOVERNMENTAL UNIT and
