City ger ENCLOSURES:
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Manager be
authorized to renegotiate the contract for the provision of an
E•911`system and backup system with AT&T, and that Purchase Order.
#43988 be increased by $360,000 to allow for the purchase of
newly developed, state-of-the-art, E911 equipment. Funding is to
be from the E-911 Special Revenue Fund, Project No. 196002, Index
code 290461-840.
BACKGROUND
The Police Department was authorized to purchase an E911 system
and backup system by Resolution No. 90-779. At that time bids
1
were obtained and an award was made to AT&T for the provision of
the equipment. Since the time the award was made, and a contract
was negotiated, great technological advances have been made.
This coupled with the consolidation of the Police and Fire
Department Communications Centers, has led to a need for an
upgraded reconfiguration of the E911 system and backup system.
This reconfiguration can be accomplished with the purchase of
additional equipment totalling $360,000.
It is,. therefore, recommended that the City Manager be authorized
to renegotiate the agreement with AT&T, and increase Purchase
`
Order #43988 by $360,000. Funding, in an amount not to exceed
-'$360,000, is available through the E-911 Special Revenue Fund, -
Project No. 196002, Index Code 290461-840.
