CITY COUNCIL <br /> AGENDA ITEM 4A <br /> STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Swenson, Public Safety Director <br /> MEETING DATE: November 28, 2022 <br /> TOPIC: Resolution No. 22-141 Supporting the MN Statute 383E.21 <br /> Establishing a County Public Safety Levy. <br /> VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br /> INTRODUCTION <br /> The Anoka County Public Safety Levy is set to expire on December 31, 2023 and the Joint Law <br /> Enforcement Council (JLEC) is requesting members support legislation that would extend the <br /> levy authority to December 31, 2033 and a proposed amendment that would not include this <br /> levy within the certified levy of Anoka County. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> The JLEC was formed in 1970 as a joint powers board to benefit public safety efforts for all <br /> residents of Anoka County. JLEC is comprised of 26 voting members consisting of the Anoka <br /> County Attorney, 11 chief law enforcement officers (10 municipal chiefs and 1 county sheriff), <br /> and 14 elected officials (12 representing municipalities in Anoka County and 2 representing <br /> Anoka County). The elected officials are appointed to JLEC by their respective City Council <br /> or County Board. <br /> The levy authority granted by MN statute 383E.21 authorized the Anoka County Board to levy <br /> property taxes to fund public safety projects and equipment projects approved by the JLEC. <br /> The amount levied at any time allowed under this statute cannot exceed $8,000,000. <br /> This authority was most recently used to fund the county wide Public Safety Data System <br /> which included computer aided dispatching (CAD), law enforcement record management <br /> system(RMS), fire RMS, and jail management RMS. This project resulted in an increase in <br /> data sharing not only within Anoka County but on state-wide and national levels amongst <br /> public safety agencies, leveraged the economy of scale of all Anoka County agencies to <br /> achieve favorable pricing, created redundancies and support for the systems for the betterment <br /> of public safety throughout Anoka County. This project was completed under budget. <br /> Prior to the Public Safety Data System project, the JLEC leveraged the collective resources of <br /> all of Anoka County public safety agencies to upgrade radio communication systems to the 800 <br /> MHz radio system. This ensured that all agencies and the Anoka County Dispatch Center <br /> could systematically upgrade all public safety agencies to the enhanced 800 MHz system in <br /> manner that ensured inoperability and first responder safety. <br /> Through discussion with JLEC members and members of the Anoka County Board there are <br /> two proposed changes to MN Statute 383E.21 which are: <br />
