Description
Beginning in 2010 the communities of Allen Park, Huron Township, Romulus, Southgate, Taylor and Wyandotte collaborated in upgrading to a new 911 equipment server allowing the communities to share servers and reduce costs. Prior to this, each community operated individual 911 servers. According to federal mandates each of the communities were required to upgrade their equipment incurring high costs for the technology. By collaborating each community boasts the availability of the most state-of-the-art equipment, capable of tracking cellular calls and increasing response accuracy. The upgrade in technology has allowed for the collaboration In the past, phone systems had to be within a short proximity of the server; the new system does not have a distance limitation allowing for greater portability, the upgrade in technology has entitled the collaboration. Under the agreement, maintenance is shared among the member communities, allowing for lower maintenance costs; while grants from the U.S. Department of Justice Community Oriented Police Services program offset a number of implementation costs. Each member purchases its own hardware and software and pays for installation at its site. Maintenance costs are shared and due annually. A board of directors consisting of representatives from each community governs the alliance. Lincoln Park alone, has realized a savings in capital improvements equal to $300,000 over the next two years.
