911 upgrade presentation
1. CCP Budget and Funding of
911 Upgrade
BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS- 6/21/2012
2. Overview of CCP/911 Issues
2012 budget shortfall and necessary action
Update on revisions to CCP Interlocal
Possible relocation of 911 dispatch center
P25 upgrade project and funding discussions
3. 2012 CCP Budget
During Interlocal negotiations, some City expenses
were inadvertently left out (radio shop, etc)
Agreement calls for 70/30 split based, so County’s
30% number constrains City’s 70% number
‘Gap’ is between CCP budget and amount provided
under Interlocal formula
Budget assumed all E911 revenues would be
contributed, whereas only wired was appropriated
City and County both contributing to ‘gap’ funding
4. Amendments to CCP Interlocal
Amendments are needed to address known issues
Fix perpetual shortfall resulting from unknown budget items
not included in negotiations of original Interlocal
Changes to operations board of CCP
Clarification that all E911 fees will go to CCP
Clarification of what happens if CCP budget needs to increase
Revisions have been discussed between Mayor,
Commissioner and CCP attorneys
5. 911 Dispatch Relocation
Previous cursory study showed Rousseau Centre
basement could be modified to create minimal
additional square footage, but as it stands now, is not
best suited for the new system
Looking at locations outside of Rousseau Centre
Hoping to work with community partners
Space needs to allow for opportunities for regional
dispatch in the future
6. Upgrade to new 911 system
Multiple negotiation sessions with Motorola
Motorola has given discounts and incentives beyond the bid
price
Final negotiated price of $16,986,484
City share @ $9,826,277
County share@ $7,160,207
Radios @ $2,904,436
50% of Backbone @ $4,255,771
7. How do we pay for it?
Finance Lease with outside lender
Bond against future taxes or revenue
Pay with cash
8. Commissioners’ Recommendation
For County portion of 911 upgrade, use available
cash on hand
CEDIT/COIT ‘windfall’ - $4.8M
Rainy Day - $2.3M
Appropriate $1.4M in July from E911 fund to fix ‘gap’
for 2012 budget
Preserve remaining balance of E911 fund for possible
911 relocation and cash reserve for CCP
