5. 5. <br />CC Regular Session <br />Meeting Date: <br />12/09/2025 <br />Primary Strategic Plan Initiative: Strive for high organizational morale and employee retention <br />Title: <br />Approve Axon Mobile Responder Memorandum of Understanding <br />Purpose/Background: <br />Ramsey Police Officers wear Axon body -worn cameras. These cameras monitor their location using GPS <br />technology. Anoka County Emergency Communications Center (ACECC) provides emergency dispatching for <br />police and fire departments in Anoka County. <br />ACECC has had an advancement in its emergency response capabilities to significantly enhance real-time <br />situational awareness and responder safety by enabling live location sharing and device metadata visibility during <br />critical incidents. Through a secure connection, body -worn cameras will transmit real-time GPS location data and <br />device status directly into the ACECC RapidsSOS Portal. <br />This integration provides dispatchers and public safety officials with a clearer operational picture during <br />emergencies, such as active threats, missing persons, or large-scale incidents. It improves responder safety <br />(knowing where your teams are, even if radio contact is lost), response coordination (deploying resources more <br />effectively with live location data), and public safety outcomes (making faster, more informed decisions during <br />high -stakes events). <br />The City of Ramsey maintains full control over the sharing of data. Access can be revoked at any time. All data is <br />shared securely and in compliance with privacy and operational standards. <br />Notification: <br />Ramsey Police supervisors of all ranks have spoken with their teams regarding this, and the supervisors shared <br />their unanimous support in utilizing this new capability. <br />Time Frame/Observations/Alternatives: <br />Upon the completion of the signed MOU, ACECC is ready to implement these improvements. <br />Funding Source: <br />Funding for this MOU will come from staff time to meet our areas of responsibility outlined in the attached <br />agreement. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends approving the attached MOU to begin sharing body -worn camera GPS data with ACECC. <br />Outcome/Action: <br />Motion to approve entering into a memorandum of understanding between the Ramsey Police Department and <br />Anoka County Emergency Communication Center regarding access to evidence.com credentials for Axon - <br />RapidsSOS integration. <br />Attachments <br />
