Motion to approve transfer of funds from Wireless Fund Reserve to E911 Regular Fund. Attachments Public Safety Committee Meeting 11/13/2006 2:00 PM Transfer of funds from 215 to 216 Department:Augusta 9-1-1 Communication Center Caption:Motion to approve transfer of funds from Wireless Fund Reserve to E911 Regular Fund. Background:The Augusta 9-1-1 center requests approval for the transfer of $45,000.00 from the Wireless Fund Reserve to the regular operating E911 Fund. This funding will be used to purchase replacement computers for the console workstations. These console workstation computers access the computer-aided dispatch system, the radio interface system, and other related software applications that provide essential functions for the delivery of 911 services. The current computers have been in operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week since the early part of 2005 and we are currently experiencing computer malfunctions associated with this extreme level of use. Information Technology agrees that the environment these systems are subject to mandates replacement on an alternative schedule to normal office type computers. Analysis:The Augusta 9-1-1 Center has requested pricing through the Information Technology Department for replacement of computers, which were not budgeted in the regular budget. There are sufficient funds in the Wireless Fund Reserve account to allow for this transfer to cover this cost. Financial Impact:Transfer of $45,000.00 from Wireless Fund Reserve Account Alternatives:1. Approve this request 2.
