BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Department provides dispatch services to various outside agencies using existing personnel and equipment, with minimal operational impact, for emergencies and non-emergencies. The City has requested a new agreement for emergency dispatch service for its Code Compliance Division (Division) for the term of July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025. The service will allow for members of the Division to have radio contact with the Department’s dispatch centers to call in case of an emergency that requires response by law enforcement personnel. The recommended Revenue Agreement provides for annual review of the fee schedule (Attachment I) to ensure proper cost recovery to the County. The Department is seeking authorization to revise and execute the Attachment I to reflect future amounts as approved by the Board of Supervisors for emergency dispatch services in the law enforcement services contracts for fiscal year 2023-24 and 2024-25.
