ANTHONY <br /> REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION <br /> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <br /> Date Submitted Type of Action Requested Agenda Item Number <br /> Resolution Reports-3c <br /> May 6, 1982 Ordinance <br /> Date Action Requested X Formal Action/Motion Title Status-Hennepin <br /> Other County Public Safety <br /> May 11 , 1982 Informational . Radio System <br /> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <br /> I <br /> TO: Mayor and Councilmen <br /> FROM: David M. Childs, City Manager <br /> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <br /> SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF SUBJECT: Considerable discussion has taken place in re- <br /> cent months and years about emergency. dispatching in Hennepin County. As you may be <br /> aware, over half of the cities -in the County utilize the County for dispatching. <br /> A substantial number, . however, -have their own dispatching operations and any <br /> discussion of a total county-wide system has met with severe opposition. The <br /> attached memo indicates that for the time being, we will not be charged for dis- <br /> patching and describes some system improvements which we find very welcome. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT: We have been concerned, in the past, that the County would start <br /> charging for dispatching services. Their action not to charge the cities for the <br /> operation is a welcome financial relief.. <br /> ALTERNATIVES : N/A <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The proposed procedural and operations changes are very <br /> desirable and Commissioner Salverda should be informed about our appreciation for <br /> these developments. <br /> CITY MANAGER' S REVIEW: COMMENTS : <br /> 0A..L*A rn ,ad&� <br />
