<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Form B-52 <br /> 7/18/91 <br /> <br /> DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE <br /> <br /> REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br /> <br /> DEPARTMENT: Data Systems Department DATE: 10/09/06 <br /> <br /> STAFF CONTACT: Clayton Yugawa PHONE: x8400 <br /> <br /> <br /> A. REQUEST: <br /> <br /> Request a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement with the State's Wireless Enhanced <br /> 911 Board for the appropriation and reimbursement of funds for enhanced 911 services for wireless <br /> communications. <br /> <br /> Request a bill for an ordinance to appropriate $350,000 for the County's Wireless E911 system. This will <br /> cover the expenses for the Wireless E911 system being provided and reimbursed by the Wireless Enhanced <br /> 911 Board. This equipment will be used by the Police and Fire Dispatch Centers to assist in the location of <br /> the Cellular E911 Calls. <br /> <br /> <br /> B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED): <br /> The state has mandated that all Public Safety Answering Positions be able to identify and locate cellular calls <br /> to the E911 Dispatch Centers. The expectation is that all counties, state and Federal E911 locations <br /> subscribe to the same software provider as a means to integrate and interoperate across the islands. <br /> <br /> The proposed system will utilize Global Position System tracking (GPS) coordinates and ESRI Mapping <br /> layers to show where the caller is physically located. <br /> <br /> This system will also have the Auto Vehicle Locator (AVL) feature, that will allow the Dispatch Centers to <br /> track Emergency vehicles on a real-time basis. <br /> The State's Wireless Enhanced 911 Board will reimburse the County's for the resaonable costs to lease, <br /> purchase, or maintain all necessary equipment, including hardware, software, and data base positioning, <br /> required to provide technical functionality for Wireless E911 services. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> SIGNED: DATE: 10 /13/ <br /> Depar ment Head <br />
