MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION #98121
BY: Commissioner Eric Coleman, District # 21, Commissioner Vincent Gregory,
District #20
IN RE: EMERGENCY 911 SYSTEM-REIMBURSEMENT TO COMMUNITIES WHICH HAVE UPGRADED
E911 CALL- TAKING EQUIPMENT
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County has undertaken the task of evaluating the state
of Emergency 911 Systems county-wide and;
WHEREAS this evaluation has revealed the need to upgrade E911 call-
taking equipment in every PSAP located in Oakland County except the Oakland
County Sheriff's Department, the cities of Madison Heights and Southfield, and
the Village of Oxford and;
WHEREAS the communities named above have already upgraded, or are in the
process of upgrading, their call-taking equipment to current standards and;
WHEREAS Oakland County is seeking funding to assist the communities
whose E911 call-taking equipment is obsolete in its replacement.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that in the event that Oakland County
secures funding to assist communities in the replacement of their obsolete
E911 call-taking equipment, then the cities of Southfield and Madison Heights
and the Village of Oxford shall be reimbursed for expenses incurred in
replacing their E911 call-taking equipment.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this reimbursement shall be made on a pro-
rata basis of cost incurred by communities and funds received by Oakland
County. This ratio shall be calculated by using the final total of
replacement costs incurred as the denominator and the costs incurred by each
community as the numerator, with the ratio being applied against the final
total of funds received for this purpose to determine each community's share.
Chairperson, I move adoption of the foregoing resolution.
Resolution #98121 May 7, 1998
