SUPPORTS WHICH COUNCIL OBJECTIVE?
INITIATING PROBLEM,ISSUE,OPPORTUNITY(Who,What,When,Where,Why): T e o all Police Department is in need of a new
radio beeper system. The purpose of the radio pager purchase is to replace pagers that are
14 years old and not cost effective to repair, to replace lease pagers to reduce operating
costs, to change operating frequency to clear Channel 3 of disruptive pager traffic and to
replace voice paging with digital display paging to provide more efficient operation. Funds
being used for this purchase are intended for purchase of radio communications equipment but
are in a capital account and radio pagers cost less than a capital item ($300) , therefore
need to be transferred to a 300 account for expenditure.
ADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
The new system will save money due to repairs and replacement . It will also clear
Channel 3 of disruptive pager traffic.
Estimates over a five year period in the leasing versus purchasing amounts to
$35,000 savings to the department .
DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVED:
None - will enhance our communication ability.
DISADVANTAGES IF NOT APPROVED:
Will be an additional disadvantage to nurse an old system along. Channel 3 which is
presently over worked with voice radio transmissions will cont.inua �b� srupted by
the pager traffic. GG
