DISCUSSION
Ensuring safe, equitable, and accessible facilities is an important part of providing Library Services to the community. Installing security cameras at each of the Library locations will help to meet this goal. For the new Delhi Library Branch, Siemens Industry, Inc. (“Siemens”) will provide, install, and program six (6) IP security cameras, associated hardware, cabling, server, switch, uninterruptible power supply, and wall cabinet. Siemens will also provide device licenses and ensure the camera system integrates into the City’s existing security platform. The cameras will be located within the Library’s leased space, both inside and within the Library’s gated exterior patio.
Construction of the Delhi Library is anticipated to be complete in July 2025.
The Santa Ana Police Department currently has an agreement with Siemens for on- going, City-wide video surveillance system maintenance, repair, and installation services through Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 20-053. Siemens has provided security camera system services to the City since 2013.
