These technologies were implemented to increase transparency, produce stronger criminal cases,and provide protection for Deputies against misinformation or misinterpretation of their actions. As anticipated,the use of video technology has resulted in a significant increase in Public Disclosure Requests(PDRs)for video and audio content,requiring efficient and secure redaction of sensitive information. See attached proposal for more details. Budget Impact(amount,funding source,budget amendment, etc.): 2025 absorbed into the Sheriff's current authorized budget,but there will be continuing maintenance costs in the future. Public Outreach: N/A Requested Action: Approval for the Sheriff's Office to purchase a subscription through Brite for Veritone Redaction software. Attachment(s)• Proposal gsSY I(y ?�6t' nerkur 'HII:RIpF, Sheriff Ryan Spurling ■ ,. .11ggrIA'ppUNTI' e of IwAI 322 N 3rd St Shelton,WA 98584 (t) 360.427.9670 x313 Sheriff@MasonCountyWa.gov s°dry \j/ 186 To: U Sheriff Ryan Spurling and Undersheriff Travis Adams From: Chief Criminal Deputy Jason Dracobly Date: April 3, 2025 Subject: Proposal for Subscription-Based Redaction Software—Veritone Redact Background: Since 2020,the Mason County Sheriff's Office has equipped its deputies with Body Worn Cameras (BWCs)and in-car video systems.These technologies were implemented to increase transparency, produce stronger criminal cases,and provide protection for deputies against misinformation or misinterpretation of their actions.As anticipated,the use of video technology has resulted in a significant increase in Public Disclosure Requests(PDRs)for video and audio content, requiring efficient and secure redaction of sensitive information. The Challenge: Our current redaction tool,which is built into the GETAC platform, presents several workflow and performance limitations: • Single-tasking restriction:Only one redaction project can be worked on at a time. • No auto-save:Any interruption or system failure can result in the loss of significant work. • Limited audio transcription: GETAC's native transcription and audio redaction capabilities are time-consuming and often require manual correction. These limitations result in delayed responses to public records requests, increased staff workload, and heightened risk of error or omission. The Legal Risk: Public Disclosure Requests are among the most litigious areas of local government operations. Improper or delayed redactions can lead to lawsuits,financial penalties,and damage to public trust. With the volume and complexity of video-based records continuing to grow, having a reliable and advanced redaction solution is no longer optional—it is a risk mitigation necessity. By adopting the most capable and accurate product available,the Sheriff's Office will significantly limit its exposure to potential legal liability.Veritone's automation,audit trails,and transcription accuracy help ensure we remain compliant with RCW 42.56(Public Records Act) and other relevant laws— reducing the likelihood of negative legal findings or claims of mishandled redactions. Proposed Solution:Veritone Redact(Integrated with GETAC) Veritone is a cloud-based,subscription redaction software that now integrates directly with GETAC's video solutions.This partnership combines the rugged,field-ready hardware of GETAC with the advanced,AI-powered software of Veritone to deliver a complete and efficient evidence management solution. let'�p\SY fjKCp�,� ew ❑ U,LJ�1� 1 � uerurr, -1 H1pg.�_ �q StAION COUNT 1' °f�- yf i\VA 0322 N 3rd St Shelton,WA 98584 360.427.9670 x313 Sheriff@MasonCounryi^Ja.gov l Importantly,GETAC itself recognized that its built-in redaction software was not meeting the increasing demands of law enforcement. Rather than attempting to continue with a substandard in-house solution, GETAC evaluated the industry and sought out a partnership with the leading video redaction provider. As a result, they developed a direct integration with Veritone Redact,giving agencies like ours access to a premier, purpose-built redaction platform that maximizes both performance and reliability. Key Benefits of Veritone Redact with GETAC Integration: • AI-Powered Automation:Automatically detects and redacts faces, license plates, MDT screens, and other sensitive content across large volumes of video. • Multitasking Capabilities:Allows multiple redaction projects to be worked on simultaneously, drastically improving throughput. • Auto-Save Functionality: Prevents loss of work due to crashes or unexpected shutdowns, ensuring project stability and continuity. • Superior Audio Transcription: High-accuracy transcription tools reduce the need for manual corrections, especially useful for lengthy interviews or body cam audio. • Seamless GETAC Integration: Enables secure,centralized access to video files and supports faster, more secure case processing. • Legal and Compliance Safeguards: Provides better documentation and audit trails to protect against claims of delayed or improper redaction,ensuring we meet the legal obligations of PDRs. Estimated Time Savings: I Veritone has demonstrated significant real-world time savings when compared to legacy systems. For example, a two-hour video that would previously require nearly two hours to manually review and redact was processed and redacted in just 20 minutes using Veritone's AI-powered automation. Overall estimated reductions in staff time include: • Video redaction tasks: 15-20%time savings on average,with the potential for much greater reductions on longer files. • Audio redaction tasks: 50-60%time savings due to improved transcription accuracy and automation. These time savings can free up staff for more critical duties, reduce response times for public disclosure, and reduce stress and workload on current personnel. Cost: Veritone has provided an annual subscription quote of$15,000 per year. Recommendation: We recommend approval of this subscription to Veritone Redact.The improved efficiency,superior functionality,seamless integration with our existing GETAC system, and strong legal safeguards make it a vital tool for the Sheriff's Office.This investment supports transparency, risk management, legal compliance,and operational effectiveness—ensuring we can meet public expectations and statutory requirements without overburdening our team.

The vacation area is unopened and has never been 12 maintained 13 The County staff stated the road areas are not deemed necessary for future use by the 14 County in its road system. The vacation areas in question have likely already been vacated as a matter of law under what is called the ancient right of way statute, RCW 15 36.87.090. Due to amendments made to the original statute in 1909, a court has ruled that he statute generally operates to vacate roads that were dedicated prior to March 11, 16 1904 and remained unused for a period of at least five years. See Gillis v. King County, 42 Wn.2d 373 (1953). The right of way was dedicated to the public on August 1, 1890, 17 when the plat of Hoodsport was originally platted. The formal vacation by the County 18 will add the vacated land to the County's tax roles and avoid the necessity of a clear title action by the property owner. 19 20 TESTIMONY 21 Tina Schaefer, Right of Way Agent Senior summarized the staff report.

Background/Executive Summary: In an effort to enhance the safety and security of county employees, visitors, and assets, this proposal recommends the adoption of a random security screening policy at designated county government buildings. The purpose of the policy is to deter unauthorized access, reduce the risk of contraband or weapons entering secured facilities, and reinforce a culture of safety. The screenings would be conducted at existing security checkpoints and would follow a randomized selection protocol to avoid profiling or bias. This policy aligns with best practices in public sector facility management and supports the county’s ongoing efforts to ensure a safe and secure working environment. Budget Impact (amount, funding source, budget amendment, etc.): None, as the policy would utilize existing security personnel and infrastructure. Should the volume of screenings increase over time, a minor adjustment to the security staffing budget may be necessary. Any additional funding needs would be addressed in a future budget amendment or incorporated into the next fiscal year's planning. Public Outreach: None. Requested Action: Approval to move to action adoption of the proposed Security Checkpoint Random Screening Policy for designated county government facilities. Attachment(s): • Draft Security Checkpoint Random Screening Policy • Random Security Selection List - Example 1 Security Checkpoint Random Screening Policy Security Checkpoint Random Screening Policy Purpose To enhance the safety and security of county facilities by implementing a fair and impartial process for random screening of employees entering secure areas. Scope This policy applies to all county employees who access secure government facilities. Definitions Security Checkpoints: a designated area at the entrance of the secure facility where individuals and their belongings are screened for potential security risks. Screeners: Pacific security staff. Dailing screening number (DSN): number of employees to be screened daily determined by a Random.org. Random.org: Computer-generated program used as a randomized numbering method. Policy Statement To maintain a secure workplace, random screenings may be conducted at security checkpoints. These screenings are not based on suspicion and are designed to deter unauthorized items and ensure compliance with county safety protocols. Screeners will have no involvement in determining which employees to screen. All employees must have their county issued badge visible when entering the security checkpoint. Procedures 1.Random Selection Process a.Screenings will be conducted using Random.org. b.For each month, the Facilities Manager will complete a Random Screening Selection List (RSSL) for each security checkpoint using Random.org to select the numbers for each day in the month and submit the RSSL to the screeners no later than the 25th of the preceding month. c.The RSSL will be used to identify the number of employees to be screened daily and by what counts between screenings. d.To determine the daily screening number, a random number will be selected between zero (0)and ten (10) for each day in the month and will be recorded on the RSSL. 2 Security Checkpoint Random Screening Policy e.The number for the employee count between screenings will be based on the average daily patron count for each building. The average daily patron count will be assessed on a quarterly basis using the patron count for each building. f.To determine the number for the employee count between screenings, a random number will be selected between zero (0) and the average daily patron county (Example: 346). A number for the employee g.For each day in the month, the daily screening number determines the amount of random numbers selected for the employee count between screenings. h.If the randomly selected patron county number isn’t an employee, the screener will perform a random screening on the next employee that comes through the security checkpoint and that number will be recorded on the RSSL in the designated area. i.Any employee who does not have their county issued badge on their person and displayed will be screened in order to pass through the security checkpoint. 2.Random Screening Procedure a.Employees will be asked to submit to inspection of bags, personal belongings, removal of belt, and/or walkthrough metal detector screening. b.Refusal to comply may result in denial of entry and referral to supervisory staff for follow-up. 3.Privacy & Professionalism a.All screenings will be conducted respectfully and professionally, maintaining the individual's dignity and privacy. b.Any findings during screening will be documented in accordance with the county policy. 4.Prohibited Items a.Employees are expected to be familiar with the list of prohibited items (e.g., weapons, drugs, unauthorized recording devices). b.Violations will be reported to the appropriate authorities. 5.Exemptions a.On-duty law enforcement officers and first responders (including but not limited to deputies, police officers, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel) are exempt from participation in the random screening process while actively engaged in their official duties.

Background/Executive Summary: Mason County is at a critical level of in-house attorneys after the resignation of our Chief Public Defender and the loss of felony attorneys. Maggie Huston our Felony Paralegal is doing an amazing job of keeping all of the balls juggling in the air,but she has too many balls and things are starting to fall apart. Maggie has maxed all our regular contract attorney's out in terms of case load. She has over 100 felony cases that have not been assigned to an attorney. She continually cold calls other legal offices to see if they have any attorneys that would be willing to take on cases. We are struggling to find attorneys to cover the daily preliminary hearings that are required to address individuals arrested and being held in our jail. We are required to provide these individuals with an attorney so that they can make an informed decision about how to respond to their charges. Superior court has been very understanding,but the problem is getting bigger. The team and I have interviewed a few candidates for our open Chief position,but to date are unsuccessful. We are working with Corrections to ensure that attorneys can meet remotely with their clients and the superior court is very good at using technology to conduct their hearings and trials. With the ability to increase the hourly rate and offer remote options to outside attorneys taking on our felony clients I am hopeful we can broaden our search. Budget Impact(amount, funding source,budget amendment, etc.): With salary savings from vacant positions I do not believe we will need additional budget authority associated with this request. We currently have$80,000+in underspent budget that I can utilize to implement this plan.
