Attn: James Nantell
Dear Mr. Nantell,
MAKING A SAFER WORLD.
Redflex Traffic Systems Inc. agrees to the City of Burlingame's request to terminate their
contract with us effective at midnight May 31, 2010. On May 19, 2010 our Regional Account
Manager, Chuck Uhler, met with Acting Chief Wood and Sgt. Shepley to determine the amount
of money owed to Redflex to cover the unamortized equipment installed in Burlingame. The
payment for unamortized equipment costs was agreed to by both parties.
Acting Chief Wood asked Redflex to reduce the amount of money due to Redflex for
unamortized equipment costs. Redflex agrees to that request and would consider this part of the
contract to be satisfied with a payment of $50,000 by June 30, 2010. Redflex agrees to continue
to process images collected through 11:59 P.M. May 31, 2010. Redflex agrees to provide
evidentiary court packages to the City of Burlingame as needed for future court cases until
December 31, 2011. Redflex agrees that all violation revenue collected in the future will remain
with the City of Burlingame. Burlingame agrees to pay all outstanding invoices upon receipt of
the May 2010 invoice.
Redflex agrees to cover all expenses for removal of the photo enforcement system and restore
the intersection to original condition. Redflex agrees to pay for the permit fees required to
remove this equipment. Upon acceptance of this agreement Redflex will prepare the necessary
documentation and submit it to the City of Burlingame for submission to Cal Trans. Once the
removal permit has been obtained Redflex will remove its equipment and restore the intersection
within 30 days.
If the terms described in this letter are acceptable to the City of Burlingame please sign and
return.
