The City Council has explored opportunities to impmve the efficiency and effectiveness of the Fire and Police emergency
communications centers. Council Research has recommended twice in the past ten yeazs that the communications
centers be combined. 1n 1999, Mayor Coleman organized a task force of Police and Fire union representatives,
Police and Fire management representafives, Police and Fire communications centers representatives, and the Mayor's
administration representafives on how a combined Police/Fire communications center could be designed. Sessions were
held to elicit concerns of affected employees. After reviewing the suggestions of the task force, Mayor Coleman decided
to im lement a combined Police/Fire communications center because it will save mon and deliver better service.
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED �
A combined emergency communications center will be more efficient and effective.
DISADVANTpGES lP APPROVED
None.
DISADVANTAGES IF NOTAPPROVED
