2007 COPS Secure Our Schools Grant Application COPS-SOS-2007-1 Executive Summary: Agency Name: State: Point of Contact Name: Phone Number: A ward Amount: Cass County Sheriff s Office North Dakota Major Glenn ElIingsberg 701-271-2914 $78,319 The proposed video security system project would enable Cass County Rural Sch 01 Districts to meet their goal of achieving state of the art surveillance capabilities. This will ssist in ensuring the safety of students and staff of our Cass County Rural School District . Three of the seven rural Cass County schools have already made significant contr butions to this project by purchasing and installing video security systems. These systems a e designed to record events at building entrances, hallways, and other common areas such as lu chrooms. These systems use digital video recorders that can store up to a month of data and provide video monitors in areas that are usually staffed. The primary components of this project include: · Purchase 54 cameras for video security systems for the four remaining Ca s County Rural Schools that have never installed video security systems and purcha e 28 cameras for existing systems where additional problem areas have been identified. · The project will also install two intercom systems in the two rural schools that have no means to warn or advise staff and students of serious incidents occurring ithin their schools. · One rural school, Northern Cass, is not located in a community and stands alone in rural Cass County. This project will add an access control system to restri t public access to their school and provide secure access by their staff. There are approximately 2,458 students in the Cass County Rural Schools that thi grant will help protect. This project will enable each school district and the Cass County Sh riff s Office to more effectively and efficiently respond to and prevent school related crimes. n the event a crime occurs, this project can aid in the apprehension of those responsible and res ore order. With the increasing occurrences of school related violence, utilizing the technolo y available in the areas of surveillance and communication are essential. The entire project is projected to be completed and functional by July 2008.
