IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS — DEVELOP AND ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR

OAKLAND COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE LAW ENFORCEMENT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS transparency and accountability are essential in protecting the safety of our residents; and
WHEREAS according to the Cato Institute's Criminal Justice National Survey, 89% of Americans support
police officers wearing body cameras to record their on -duty interactions; and
WHEREAS this polling data demonstrates strong, bipartisan approval of equipping law enforcement with
body worn cameras; and
WHEREAS as of 2020, the Waterford and Southfield Police Departments joined the growing number of law
enforcement agencies equipped with body worn cameras; and
WHEREAS body worn cameras are valuable law enforcement and public safety tools, capturing footage
enhanced beyond the capacity of police vehicle dash -camera videos; and
WHEREAS the enhanced footage provided by body worn cameras has demonstrated the capacity to
improve transparency and accountability by increasing civility between law enforcement and citizens;
accelerating resolutions of complaints, lawsuits and other proceedings; supporting the documentation of
corroborating evidence; and enhancing opportunities for the continual assessment of law enforcement
operations and field training of officers; and
WHEREAS research demonstrates that body worn cameras benefit the officers who wear them and the
public they serve; and
WHEREAS a U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) study found that officers equipped with body worn cameras
received fewer complaints of misconduct, and fewer resources were spent on misconduct investigations
with estimated savings of more than $4,000 per user annually; and
WHEREAS the DOJ has also developed recommendations and guidelines for the implementation of a body
worn camera program that includes provisions for the privacy of individuals, the storage of data, the consent
to record and other lessons learned from the implementation of law enforcement programs; and
WHEREAS use of body worn cameras would serve to build greater community trust between the general
public and local law enforcement and improve public safety and justice in Oakland County.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners directs a Request
for Proposal (RFP) be developed for the purchase, maintenance, and video management of body worn
cameras for all Oakland County Sheriff's Office law enforcement.
