Gimenez City Manager RECOMMENDATION DATE: V - I .-" SUBJECT! Proposed Resolution REFERENCES; Upgrade of Radio System. ENCLOSURES: FILE : It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the allocation of funds towards upgrading the radio system for the Department of Police, in an amount not to exceed $1,000.000. Funding is to be provided from the Law Enforcement Trust I- und, U. S. Department of Justice, Project Number 690002 and the U. S. Department of the Treasury, Project Number 690003. BACKGROUND The current radio system was built in 1985 and has far exceeded its functional useful lifetime. This system has reached its radio handling capacity causing cloning of radio system numbers which creates problems in identit},ing radios that are transmitting. The system has repeated intermitted failures where dispatcher and officer transmissions are lost. These failures continue to create situations where both officer and firefighter safety are compromised. The proposed maior upgrade to the radio system will totally replace the current backbone of the system along with some radios that are based on the old technology. None of these old radios will operate on this new upgraded system. This upgrade includes a new microwave system, repeaters, transmitters, receivers, combiners, communications equipment bank, dispatcher radio consoles and a SIMS radio management system. The upgraded system will permit the operation of a larger number of radios with individual identifying numbers. Radios can also be regrouped to provide investigative support on an as needed basis. With the new system, we will have the ability to upgrade further to the latest digital technology, at a later date, which will further increase security of police transmissions over the airways. ,J'l CAG /JLM/lr CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Carlos A.
