Item ~ 5.2. <br /> <br />City ~ <br /> ~iV~l" <br /> <br />Police Department <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Mayor & City Council <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Assistant Chief Jeffrey Beahen <br /> <br />DATE: 06-14-01 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Computer Upgrades <br /> <br />The police department has recently received information from our <br />software vendor of an impending upgrade to our records management <br />system. This upgrade is part of the scheduled maintenance and software <br />improvements that we pay for in our annual maintenance fees. The <br />upgrades will vastly improve the overall operating efficiency of the entire <br />police information systems. <br /> <br />To prepare for this migration we were asked to inventory our current <br />computers and report back to our provider on the readiness of our <br />network. The upgrade requires that all workstations be capable of working <br />with Microsoft SQL Server version 7.0. The major requirement for working <br />with this operating system is that each computer must have an operating <br />system that is either Windows NT 4.0 or greater or Windows 2000. Neither <br />Windows 95 nor Windows 98 will work with the new database. <br /> <br />The second.requirement is that the computer must have a minimum of <br />128mb of RAM. The third requirement is that the processor speed on each <br />workstation be at a minimum, at the level of a Pentium III at 500 mhz. <br /> <br />The migration to the upgraded software cannot be accomplished until <br />the computers we currently have are upgraded to the minimal <br />requirements or replaced with computers that meet the standards. <br /> <br /> <br />
