Paid 6,629.60 for a Verkada camera on the police trailer

The Borough paid 6,629.60 to Eastern Datacomm LLC under purchase order 25-03188, which the audit trail calls CAMERA and INTERNET MESSAGE BOARD. The vendor's invoice 193452 of 01/12/2026 bills it as "Police Department - Remote trailer Verkada trailer." It lists a Verkada two-camera multisensor with a 5-year license, a Verkada outdoor cellular gateway with a 5-year license, mounts, a power injector and four hours to set up the camera, the gateway and the Verkada portal. Check 75118 on 03/03/2026 paid 5,243.74 from opioid grant account 5-01-99-300-227 and 1,385.86 from opioid grant account 5-01-41-811-201. The two lines are one purchase order split across two accounts, not a duplicate. The same check paid a Verkada viewing station for police dispatch, 2,008.38, from the police capital account C-06-23-020-102. The Borough's other Eastern Datacomm camera systems were paid from capital ordinances, park lines and a state grant. The record ties no opioid program to the camera. Cameras are not among the uses Exhibit E lists. The payment falls in the DHS reporting year running 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026. The FY2026 report, published 10/01/2026, certifies 41,082.55 spent in that year, a figure that includes the camera. It answers No when asked whether the Borough funded any program and does not describe the camera.
