RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriations and Revenue Adjustment No. 5038 authorizing new revenue in the amount of $350,500 from capital fund contributions made by the City of Pittsburg, and appropriating it the Office of the Sheriff for the purchase of East Bay Regional Communications System compliant radio equipment.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action increases revenue and expenditures by $350,500. The new revenue is from accumulated annual contributions made by the City of Pittsburg to the County Law Enforcement Capital Projects Fund (105600), which is administered by the Office of the Sheriff.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff's Office has used Motorola for their communications system for over 20 years. The Pittsburg Police Department received their dispatch communication services from the Sheriff's Office Communications Center and to maintain continuity of this operational relationship, Motorola is the optimal choice for related communications equipment. Motorola has been selected in the past because of reliability and ease of maintenance. Because of the proprietary nature of this equipment, Pittsburg PD chose to purchase Motorola communications equipment as an extension of the EBRCS P25 digital communication project.
