Resolution 6898 Approval of the Dispatch Services Agreement with Ramsey <br />County <br /> <br />Police Chief Sommer stated all cities in Ramsey County would receive dispatch services through <br />this agreement, which specifies the costs to the City. He stated costs will go down in 2007 and <br />will probably remain close to the amount since call levels have remained the same. He stated <br />Ramsey County would cover 60% of costs in the future. He stated Mounds View would be the <br />first city in Ramsey County to use the system. <br /> <br />Mayor Marty asked about page two, article four, and membership to the dispatch policy <br />committee. He asked about the membership and stated his concern that the numbers are heavily <br />weighted toward Saint Paul. <br /> <br />Mayor Marty also pointed out the dispatch users group and stated his concern that Mounds View <br />is the only Ramsey County city in their fire department’s group. He asked if the Mounds View’s <br />department could communicate with Anoka County as well. Police Chief Sommer stated that the <br />Mounds View fire department is primarily dispatched primarily by Anoka County. He stated the <br />calls are transferred to Anoka County’s dispatch center and there are no problems with <br />communication. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: STIGNEY/GUNN. To waive the reading and adopt Resolution 6898, <br />Approval of the Dispatch Services Agreement with Ramsey County <br /> <br />Mayor Marty asked if there is anything Mounds View can do about the membership on the policy <br />committee. Police Chief Sommer stated the membership is based on volume of users and <br />Mounds View is one of the smallest cities using the service. He stated the City has the same <br />representative agreement as Roseville and New Brighton, which have approved to the agreement. <br />He stated the numbers are appropriate.
