9-1-1 resolution (9-1-1.res) page 1 of 1
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Hugh C. Anderson, III
SUBJECT: Resolution Supporting 9-1-1 and Proposed CAPCO Budget
DATE: August 1, 1989
CAPCO has requested a subsequent resolution supporting 9-1-1.
They have provided a proposed budget (system and hardware only)
to be funded through the fees and surcharges charged to telephone
customers.
The City's cost in this system should only be associated with
personnel. Any additional costs would be incurred if basic 9-1-1
is implemented prior to the regional system being plugged in.
Major Project/Program proposals have been submitted in this
Division's 1?69-19?0 proposed budget to the City Manager. These
proposals are minimal at best, as they relate to personnel*
However, system and equipment costs will enable us to use the
system on its most basic level and provide the service with
cooperation between the Williamson County Sheriffs Department an4
Emergency Medical Services.
Additional funding will be provided (before the enhanced level is
anticipated to be established) to provide partial development of
the database necessary (approximately $500.00 per month) for the
automatic location system.
